Lolita&Dolls

Most of the lolitas look like pretty dolls, it's not surprising that many lolitas like dolls.
So... Does it mean that a lolita need a doll to be a lolita?
No! Most of the lolitas like dolls but some don't like them.
It's something personal and it's not a part of lolita fashion.
Collecting dolls is a different 'hobby' than lolita fashion but it's a little bit connected to lolita fashion because some lolita brands worked together with doll compagnies to make dolls.
For exemple:


Volks:

Luna, Charlotte,Bianca and Kurumi

Pullip:


Blythe:




I think they look very cute, I love lolita dolls!
I like Ball Jointed Dolls the most, I own 5 of them and I love them all  ^_^
Only two of them wear sometimes lolita fashion, not all the time, I also like them other clothes.

Lolita dolls aren't cheap:
blythes cost 100~200 euro each. 
If you are lucky they cost a little bit less but for a limited you will pay much more money
Pullips cost around 100 euro, limiteds are exceptions.
Ball jointed dolls are very expensive they cost +200 euro and some of the volks dolls are worth about 1500 euro, that's so

expensive!
 I don't think I would ever pay so much money for a doll...
That's not all, real lolita dolls are pretty rare except for pullips.
Those blythe dolls were limited editions they were only sold in Japan, I believe.
And when you want to buy a volks doll you have to join a lotery, you are never sure if you can buy the doll that you want unless you buy it second-hand.


There are other ways to own a 'lolita' doll.
A doll can wear lolita clothes, some doll compagnies

sell lolita clothes, some people make lolita clothes or you can
make lolita clothes yourself. For example Bunny:
!Bunny from velvetbat she is a soom Mylo and she wears lolita
fashion which is handmade by velvetbat. She is such a cute doll! (@velvetbat, I hope you don't mind that I used this photo ^_~)!


Some lolitas wear the same clothes as their dolls, I would love to do that!
I think it's very cute if you wear matching outfits with your doll.



Last year I went to a doll& lolita meeting, It was so much fun!
Everyones dolls look very cute and beautful.
It was nice to talk with other lolitas who also own dolls.
I hope there will be a doll & lolita meeting very soon,
hopefully someone else is also interested?

And what do you think about (lolita) dolls? Do you like them?
Or don't you like them, if that's so: why?
