LOLITA VS DIRNDL ☆ German Traditional Dress meets Japanese Fashion

[@kateroy3445]

I wore Lolita on the street once and a sweet old lady came up to me and said she liked my 'dirndle dress.' It was so cute!

[@Sonnenanbeterin1991]

Haha happend to me too .

[@rodrigospl2]

Good job cameraman, good job!

[@SciencePCfreak]

Rodrigospl2 haha🙃🤓

[@xXNelkeXx]

I actually got into Lolita Fashion through Dirndls! I often went to Bayern with my family and when I tried on a Dirndl for the first time I felt soo pretty that I wanted to wear this kind of style everyday - then I heard about Lolita Fashion and immediately got into it :D

[@CathyCat]

xXNelkeXx Oh wow that is an interesting experience! Thanks so much for sharing!

[@Silverbleedy]

Pretty dress! I really like the attention to detail like the purple flowers and little glitter stones.

[@MrKevin486]

Great video :D

[@AGuyCalledC]

Wow, one shot Cathy Cat & Director....nicely done.

[@hinichan]

I visited Bayern last year with my family and I fell in love with Dirndl dresses, I want one! They are so beautiful and well made and yeah they reminded me Lolita dresses a little bit

[@oscare.quiros6349]

Very refreshing to see you wearing Dirndl.

[@celinaasche7049]

i'm from germany and a Dirndl is tradition in Bayern not in all parts of germany

[@SuzuStarlight]

Cece CutieNyan But even non-Bavarian Trachten look rather similar to this. I guess most non-Germans couldn't really tell ;)

[@lebriele8434]

Cece CutieNyan Nur weil das größte Oktoberfest in Bayern ist heißt es nicht es wird woanders nicht gefeiert. Ich bin jeden Oktober in Bochum aufm Oktoberfest also erzähl keinen scheiss

[@Pigwithwig]

Cece CutieNyan in meinem Kaff in der Mitte von Deutschland kann ich fast jede Woche Leute mit Dirndl sehen.

[@celinaasche7049]

ja da wo ich herkomme feiert man natürlich auch Oktoberfest aber ein Dirndl ist nichts Alltäglich bei uns

[@kidaria1333]

Please change it to deepest southern germany because it's not a tradition in verey part of bavaria but in some of Baden-Württemberg as well.

[@eggboy6926]

Sorry, but I really need to point this out: Many people don't understand that germany doesn't consist only of bavaria! There's so much more culture, but most tourist just wanna See Oktoberfest and buy pretzels and stuff...

[@RobinHoodEnergys]

Yeah i understand your problem, but isnt that a problem with any country? France isnt also just paris an macrones

[@bretmorgan9367]

i love them all cat you rule

[@EucalyptaFantome]

I really like these dirdnl dresses. Never tried one though, just seem fun to wear. Can't wait for the next video (saw a rollercoaster in there, so yay!) 😁

[@theresalwaystimefortea3771]

It's brilliant! I love seeing other countries traditional dress, makes me wish that England had one! I wouldn't feel right wearing a kilt despite my Scottish grandparents haha

[@wonderlandartwork3579]

i mean you guys have the red riding hoods? Also you could call a bliaut traditional wear, eventhough it was worn all over europe

[@otre3947]

i don't know why you think England doesn't have a traditional dress. English have their own traditional dress. Just because other European countries might share similarities, doesn't mean its suddenly not English.

[@drprofessor756]

Such a lovely necklace, can't take my eyes off 'em.

[@IonIsFalling7217]

These are a few of my favourite things! Sehr schön! Also I adore those shoes.

[@冷冷-k7x]

I love your hairstyle and dress! 🌸

[@xbluedream89x97]

loves it. beautiful dress and very fun interesting video

[@monicayy3760]

Surface Spell ( the one that allows custom made) recently released a dress inspired by dirdnl, their take on dirdnl actually looks beautiful. you should check it out~

[@cheshirecat6438]

Beautiful color and so detailed, I would love to get a dress like yours!

[@CathyCat]

Cheshire Cat Around the festival season, there are many shops selling dresses like these, you just need to be careful not to get ripped off buying a cheap one.

[@lamarque1]

Wow Cathy they are lovely!! The dress! 😉

[@hello-bp8lf]

When I visited Germany and Austria in 17 I fell in love with dirndl! And it reminded me of Lolita so this was one of the first videos I saw about it. :)

[@HotChocolate242]

GERMANS UNITE! Fellow Bayer here :D

[@NariKims]

Cool video!

[@ahhhlindsanityyy]

very interesting and very cute!

[@MULTIVIBRATOR]

Wow! Ich mag deine edelweiss flowers. :P

[@yerfillag]

voll schönes Dirndl! ich glaub ich hab noch nie ein lilanes gesehen schaut aber wirklich cool aus

[@AuthorMorganaSinclayr]

Very interesting! Didn't know where the bow was placed had a meaning. Beautiful dirndl, love the details ^^

[@chenico0908]

Beautiful dress

[@bilgegunlu3229]

I love Lolita style and Germany. And I want to try German traditional dresses. They are so cute and same time elegant.

[@straubreyquartz]

Lovely video! Do you know if there are any online sites that sell these dresses?

[@leiag201]

SOOOO CUTE 😘😘😘

[@Itssasiiofficial]

Omg you look so beautiful ~ It's also the traditional Austrian clothing ~ I prefer wearing 'lederhosen' hahaha but you look beautiful ♡

[@miriamsommer6637]

@Long Hair, Don't Care no just no😂 there are biiiiig differences which germans don't get, but austrians do get them

[@Ilsezwarts]

So I actually bought a dirndl and I was thinking of wearing it in a more lolita way. I think the one I got is very classy and would look very lolita if I get the right accessories with it.

[@Drudenfusz]

The title is wrong, it is named a dirndl, not a dirdnl, you should get that typo fixed.

[@CathyCat]

Drudenfusz Fixed thank you

[@Drudenfusz]

You are welcome, keep up your good work!

[@zengenxers]

I have to make it to Oktoberfest next year! 😊

[@rideka]

ooh I would love to wear it, very pretty! ~

[@davidwilson1528]

me too... soooooo adorable!!!

[@Red_Insania]

where di you get this dirndl? it's so perfect!

[@itchyevil3682]

looking forward for that oktoberfest vid!^^

[@kidaria1333]

Ich weiß du machst mehr einen fashion and vlog Kanal und zum Titel passt das Video auch gut aber bezüglich was ein Dirndl ist, was Tradition und Mode unterscheidet und wo sie zusammen kommt bzw. wo ist ein Dirndl noch Tracht wo nur noch (Landhaus-) Fashion, hättest du dich ein bisschen mehr informieren können (allein Wikipedia gibt einiges her). Bilder wie traditionelle Dirndl im Laufe der letzten 100 Jahre aussahen und was sich da die letzten 5-10 Jahre seperat mehr als Kostümmode entwickelt, wie man es eigentlich vernünftigt trägt. Zu all den Punkten Qualität, überm Knie, Dirndl-Schuhe, Frisuren, bekannteste Marken,...usw. wären schon fast alles eigene Videopunkte. Die Schürze wurde ursprünglich von der Mutter oder Oma handbestickt mit traditionellen Eigenheiten aus der Region und dieser Riesenausschnitt sowie schulterfreie ist auch ein Phänomen der letzten Jahre...usw. Hinzu kommt das Lolitamode sich z.B. auch von den Dirndls (sowie der Rokokomode) und den Grimmmärchen direkt inspiriert wurde besonders bei Brands wie Baby the stars shine birght kann man das anhand der ersten Kollektionen deutlich ablesen. Ich weiß nicht wie viel Zeit du hattest aber es wäre auch interessant gewesen einfach ein paar hübsch gestylte Mädels in einem vlog video vom Oktoberfest zu zeigen.

[@SeqZZ]

I wanna wear it even though I'm not German.

[@haegar9735]

süß!

[@scottg9236]

Where are you from originally? Your English is really good. I wish I was fluent in Japanese only speak sukoshi Japanese.

[@EmiMac20]

I like it.

[@TechInspected]

Cathy Cat, blink twice if you've been kidnapped! (Cause this reminds me of that Marina Joyce thing)

[@CathyCat]

The Technoclast not sure what that reference is for actually

[@TechInspected]

Cathy Cat ☆ カティー CanuDoitCat well Marina Joyce was believed to be kidnapped because she posted a video where she was acting weird while modeling a dress and the camera was doing a lot of angles too like this one. She even trended on Twitter. Thought it could get a laugh. 😢

[@victoriansquirrel]

Wait... you were in Munich? At the Oktoberfest?! I wish I had met you, I actually wore lolita when I went there^^

[@CathyCat]

lace x ribbon Oh I would've loved to meet you there too! Are you part of the Lolita group in Munich?

[@victoriansquirrel]

Cathy Cat ☆ カティー CanuDoitCat I want to go to my first meetup in munich in winter.

[@Mickice]

You have a beautiful heart.

[@MULTIVIBRATOR]

beautiful heart, too.

[@jenniferhopesafe9742]

I don't know if I asked this already, but can a dirndl have a circle skirt?

[@BarbiePeachy1]

I'm from Baden-Württemberg 😊

[@takamiya221]

Sue Kayikcioglu I'm from Hessen xD

[@CathyCat]

Sue Kayikcioglu I love that area! I remember there being many flowers

[@aiharya5762]

Juuzou Hoshi Bayern:)

[@Luffy2Y]

cheers to the camera person :DD

[@azumanga5816]

Today is a good day :)

[@NinCat1]

Halli hallo, tut mir leid wenn ich direkt auf deutsch kommentiere ^^" Mein englisch ist noch nicht so ausgereift, sodass ich alles so in Worte fassen kann wie ich es gerne hätte xD Ich finde du bist eine super sympathische Person und wirklich niedlich vom verhalten^^ Ich mag mir deine Videos anschauen ( waren bis jetzt leider noch nicht so viele da ich deinen Channel erst seid kurzem kenne ) und finde es wirklich toll wie weit du bis jetzt in deinem Leben gekommen bist ^^ Ich hoffe du machst weiter so! Wünsche dir noch viel Erfolg und vor allem Spaß :3 LG Nincat

[@iwillnotcomplyistandformyf6642]

Even though I'm a African-American girl, if I wear a Dirndl dress; 1 goes directly to the front and I'm gonna need 1 more bow to put on the left side, so......yeah that explains everything about me.

[@kyubey3011]

I'm a Lolita that's been wanting to get a Dirndl to celebrate my largely Bavarian heritage. Where would you recommend getting one? I don't want to wind up with something of poor quality.

[@ameliaemilia1606]

Hello.If you know how to sew, try Burda Magazine.More or less once a year ,they come up with a number that has a section assigned to traditional German dresses.They come in various sizes and are absolutely gorgeous.

[@SuzuStarlight]

Mein Fall waren Dirndl ja nie, aber ich hab eine Bluse im Trachten-Stil. Aber ich bin ja auch Westfale, bei uns gibts weniger Gelegenheiten sowas zu tragen ;) Steht dir gut, vor allen die Haare!

[@My_dailyL1fe]

really cute

[@manga12]

ah thats it embrace your heritage, I liked the designs of the traditional german dress, even the old ladies wear them at the cultural festivals for german's and german americans, yes I like the aparan thing on the front and the flowers, oh and the fancy braids The german ladies wear its really elaborate and kind of attractive.

[@holaquetal3255]

And my other comments from last year: Hi there, Cathy Cat! This was interesting, although I thought you were going to make a Lolita outfit mixing both styles at some point of the video. How about a video where you make/present a full Lolita outfit mixing the traditional Dirndl dress with Lolita (with all the rules, like no cleavage, etc.)? (Mixing /inspired by/ adapting).

[@dp1042]

awesome

[@cooperscastle8157]

Ich bin auch aus Deutschland

[@mika9937]

sooo i'm bavarian and i also own a dirndl and of course there are also overknees and kneesocks for the dirndl we call it "trachtenstrümpfe" there cute decorated and there very cute >3< just like lolita

[@maamaachannel]

かわいい

[@machavideosite]

結び目の位置にそんな意味があったとは知らなかった。今度ドイツに行くことがあったら注意して見てみよう。笑

[@wonderlandartwork3579]

I live near Düsseldorf and outside of Oktoberfest season or Fasching you will most likely not see anyone in a Dirndl or Lederhosen xD

[@KaramelLolaBunnie91]

So if I get one of those Drindl dress where I'm gonna put bow at, because I am a single virgin? (nothing special though)

[@OldCatDude]

Between the Lolita dresses you wear and the dirndl, you look much taller in a dirndl than a Lolita because of the low cut blouse. :)

[@Masterpg2007]

I wonder if Lolita style was a thing before the book came out.

[@CathyCat]

Masterpg2007 It's a common misconception that the name Lolita and the book Lolita to have anything in common. The only thing in common they have is the name.

[@Masterpg2007]

Cathy Cat ☆ カティー CanuDoitCat Interesting but did Lolita had this name before the book? I can't find anything on the style before 70s. It seems to be heavily inspired on old european clothing but with a japanese adaptation.

[@bloodangelsheart]

+Masterpg2007 it was a miss interpreted by the Japanese. They associated Lolita as a young women (18-25) that was strong willed and rebellious. That was more based on the personality of Dolores rather than the story it's self. In Japanese manga Lolita became a personality type for shojo genres. And when someone called the fashion "Lolita" (A singer called Mana called it Elegant Gothic Lolita) the Japanese media went with it because it sounded cool, and rococo-like. So everyone went with it without knowing what it meant in English. And we still use the word today.

[@Masterpg2007]

てんし A Thanks for explaining !

[@katb2080]

It's nice that you are learning about Germany. Your dress was cute but the traditional dirndl does not show any cleavage. Also, tradition has not moved to only the south. Each region has their own traditional dress. The dress you are referring to is the dress of the Bavarian region, as well as Austria.

[@holaquetal3255]

And in fact you could make it also like a challenge, for all your Lolita viewers all over the world, to make a full Lolita outfit combined with their traditional dresses of their countries, send a picture (or video), and then you making a video showing all those dresses! (A bit like in the MoeMoeKyun challenge, right?). I think that could be very interesting and even educational, to know the traditional dresses from many countries! I would gladly participate too, but unfortunately I’m old, I have no money and I can’t do sewing, so… u_u But well… I think several of your viewers/Kittens could like that idea and participate? Maybe some viewers suggest this already, sorry, I can’t read all the comments now.

[@ninabou1154]

روعه حبيت

[@dananitu2452]

Ich habe einen grün-pink Dirndl der ganz lolita aussieht :-) ich mag Trachten eigentlich nicht aber mein lolita ähnliches Dirndl ist geil.

[@bostontracy5151]

You look so lovely in your traditional German dress!!! You really are a beautiful woman. As for the first part I noticed… the most I’ll say is, you’re very pretty and I’m a guy. 😉

[@holaquetal3255]

Thank you for reading! Best regards from Guadalajara, Jalisco, México! Any plans on visiting México sometime? (Please tell me if you have an e-mail address or PO BOX for fan mail ( Fan letters!), where I could contact you). Or maybe I will send you a pm here on "KZbin", hope you don't mind, I don't know when, maybe another day.

[@EdoJp]

this is very german n.n

[@Aegopodium]

Hey! Northern Germany has traditional clothing, too. It's just not that common....

[@danield8718]

Marry me plz

[@wabisabi6802]

You're single!!!!!!!!! ^_^

[@riosqaartworks]

Cathy Cat, du hast dich aus Versehen im Titel vertippt, jetzt hat jemand in den Kommentaren auch "Dirdnl" geschrieben anstatt Dirndl... Eigentlich unwichtig, wollte dir trotzdem Bescheid sagen ;)

[@CathyCat]

Riosqa Artworks Danke dir ich hab's geändert.💕

[@andrepereira744]

So Cathy Cat,you're single...

[@nicomulfetti8355]

DIRNDL >>>>>>>>> lolita I'd love to help tying the bow to the right!

この人は何歳なんだろう？白人さん実際の年齢より外見上老けて見えるもんな。

[@miriamsommer6637]

I can't be the only one, hwo is annoyed, that Germans(Hamburger or Nordrein-Westfallener) wear Dirndls or Lederhosn without even having a dialect. Just saying...people from Bayern can wear this. Thats fine, they have a dialect, but others.... I'm not trying to be rude, but it just annoys me. Finally I could say this😌

[@ArlekinVergeltungswaffe]

Oh.........my.........GOD!! I have never seen that much skin from you, dear Cathy. Oh....this feelings....oh my.......I can't tell you what I think without sound like a perv. God bless Germany....God bless that cameraman. Now....excuse me...I have....I have to go. I need some............time alone. I'm going to take my phone.....excuse me. Seriously, I think someone should call the police on me.

[@motionless_22]

[@mewiarts4749]

Yeah, yeah I think I will call the police

[@karenjenner317]
