I my self AM a Lolita i dress in the fashion and i found this book a bit offencive and misinforming.
Lolita fashion is all about modesty and innocence, i dont know any lolita who would EVER sell her self for clothes.
And also the book was not written well at all it was too much of trying way to hard to be intense and surreal.
honestly i recommend not reading it at all, thare are much better alternatives for books on the Gothic Lolita fashion with MUCH more creative uplifting stories.
