    lolita fashion is part of the fashion style and subculture Gothic & Lolita, which originated in Japan, largely inspired by Victorian children's clothing and the elaborate costumes of the Rococo period. Other influences include the western goth subculture, punk subculture and French maid outfits. Skirts are typically knee length and are worn with a pannier or petticoat to add volume. Over-knee socks, knee socks or stockings are extremely popular, especially printed with roses or crowns or topped with lace. Footwear is typically cute, child-like shoes such as Mary Janes, though Vivienne Westwood Rocking horse shoes, and replicas of them are also very popular. Skirts are typically paired with either a Frilly, ruffled, or lace-trimmed Victorian blouse or a lacey 'cutsew' which stands for a shirt (usually tee-shirt material) that has been 'cut and sewn'. Other garments are either dresses in one or more pieces, which are labeled one-piece, two-piece etc or a pinafore jumper skirt worn over a blouse. These blouses often have Peter-Pan collars or sailor collars. Lace-trimmed headdresses, mini-top hats worn to one side, and intricate old-fashioned jewelry are some favored accessories of Lolitas.

    Though not the founder of the style, the Lolita fashion is often considered to have been made popular by Mana, of the band Malice Mizer. The fashion started in the 70s, though it did not gain popularity and media presence until the late 1990s and early 2000s.

    I believe this is more what you are talking about what the above people are mostly talking about is a complex most associated with pedophiles that only like little girls.

    Lolita's a young girl around the tweens to early teens that would be attracted (or attractive) to older men. Men afflicted by this would have a Lolita Complex and are called Lolicons. This definition was derived from a movie made in the late 50's called "Lolita" in which a girl in her teens attracts herself to a older man and he tries not to take her advances.

    Lolita is a book by some russian guy about two guys who become sexually obsessed with a 12 year old girl.

    In manga or anime (which i think is what ur asking) lolicon (short for lolita complex) is the name given to female characters who are sexually attaractive but are underage (or look like they are underage).

    Shotacon is the name given to male characters who are the same.
