BE FO RE

Age: 18 / Occupation: High School Student / Current Style: AvelChain Bangya* / Former Style: Gothic Lolita I switched to my current look as I wanted to be seen as more mature. I loved and miss looking like a doll, but I do like that I do look more mature now. Where do you like to go shopping in Hiroshima? Sun Mall.

* BANGYA Derived from BANGYARU or “Band Girl” Japanese equivalent of a devoted Visual Kei “fangirl” whose dre ss is directly affected by the style of the band she idolizes.

hidden fashion treasures of hiroshima Purveyor of Lolita fashion since the late 80s the branch of ‘BABY, the Stars Shine Bright’ located on the 4th floor of Sun Mall on the Hondori shopping arcade, will take your breath away. But don’t worry, it will quickly be replaced with wonder, amusement and pure curiosity as you start to peek and poke about. This store carries two lines, the softer Sweet Lolita ‘BABY, the Stars Shine Bright’ and the more gothic and punk influenced ‘ALICE and the PIRATES’, though both are, as you’d expect, hyper-girly with a dash of princess. / map C p.27 [B-1] 1
