i love that you are doing this in such detail and can actually get the photos to stay in the right column!!!
i used to be into dressing up for fun in various styles (victorian, goth, 50s, pirate, rocky horror, punk, bowie, hippie, viking, etc) years ago, but it was more of several short term phases and an doomed hobby because to buy the clothing is so expensive and i suck at sewing.
do the people who follow this fashion have parties where they all dress up or show off fashion ideas? i get the idea that girls in japan just dress this way on an everyday basis, like the punks did in britain, but im not sure.
fun post!
