There have been a lot of posts recently on the LiveJournal community about Lolita Style Icons. They’ve all been quite interesting, especially the ones that take inspiration from Non-Lolita sources and make it work with the fashion!
So this notion has been running through my head. Who is my Lolita Icon?
And I think it’s Wednesday Addams!
Here’s some pictures, before I explain my choice:

(Lisa Loring as Wednesday Addams in the 1960’s TV show)

(Christina Ricci as Wednesday Addams in the popular 1990’s Movies)

When I was younger, I was told I resembled Wednesday Addams. And I suppose I did! If my hair got long enough, I tied it in pig tails, and nearly always wore dresses.
Then I grew into the gothic/new victorian style as a teenager, which eventually led naturally to the discovery of Lolita Fashion.
I like to believe my personal style toes the line between Gothic and Classical Lolita. Or at least, that’s the kind of style I go for, and Wednesday Addams is the epitome of a cute, gothic little girl in old fashioned clothes!

That’s why she’s my Lolita Style Icon.

(A few years ago, my parents, brother and I went to a halloween party as the Addams Family, naturally, I was Wednesday. If i can find any photos of it they’ll be added to this post!)
