Not every indie brand has enough Lolibrary entries/info to warrant its own page and that's okay!  This page will serve as a general indie brand directory for information on smaller indie brands, sorted by region.  To keep this as an up-to-date directory, only active brands should be included in the main sections here; an appendix at the bottom will serve as the location for closed/defunct indie brands for archival purposes. Please refer to the Adding an Indie Brand guidelines section below before editing this page; thank you!<ref>ref goes here</ref>

====Ergi by Piratessan====
====Dejmo====
Facebook: Ergi by Piratessan
Between 2007 and 2020 the brand was known as Ergi by Piratessan. In 2011 we expanded our business into a retail one in addition to our own brand.
 
Between 2014 and 2020 our retail business traded under the name Lolitabutiken, selling various alternative brands such as Innocent World, Metamorphose, LIEF, Chocomint and many more.
 
With the launch of Dejmo in 2020 we're starting a new adventure that in many ways begins where we started in 2007. We're going back to our roots of historically inspired garments, made from natural fabrics and reclaimed vintage materials.

====Fantastic Grim====
Facebook: Fantastic Grim Jewelry
Affordable 'Fable Fashion' Jewelry and Headwear
 
The name Fantastic Grim is concocted from "an omen laced with fanciful wonder", bringing together the light and dark sides of fairy tales. Fantastic Grim opened in early 2013, offering a variety of affordable charm jewelry and accessories made from mixed media. Originally a shop made exclusively for Lolita fashion (Classic and Gothic), they branched out to become more fashion flexible. Over time they introduced jewelry that fit various substyles such as [[Mori-kei|Mori]], [[Dolly-kei|Dolly Kei]] and even Steampunk. Today, Fantastic Grim has an eclectic mix of accessory styles that fall under the self-proclaimed category of "dream and nightmare jewelry".<ref>{{Cite web|title=About FantasticGrim|url=https://www.etsy.com/shop/fantasticgrim|url-status=live|access-date=Mar 7, 2022|website=Etsy}}</ref>

[[Category:Indie Brands]]

Revision as of 03:20, 5 June 2024

Not every indie brand has enough Lolibrary entries/info to warrant its own page and that's okay! This page will serve as a general indie brand directory for information on smaller indie brands, sorted by region. To keep this as an up-to-date directory, only active brands should be included in the main sections here; an appendix at the bottom will serve as the location for closed/defunct indie brands for archival purposes.

Please refer to the Adding an Indie Brand guidelines section below before editing this page; thank you![1]

Adding an Indie Brand

Notability/Eligibility

Indie brands listed here should be primarily lolita focused, and should have at least 1 full Lolibrary entry published on the site.

Formatting

To keep everything standard and organized please copy-paste the formatting listed below when adding a new entry to this list and replace only the bolded text . Please be sure to add it in the proper place on the page alphabetically for ease of searching; thank you!

L'Esprit de la Noblesse

Made and owned by Nicolas and Elizabeth Daiglere. They describe their brand as follows:

"While creating clothes and accessories we are inspired by the aesthetics of past centuries, history and literature, as well as prominent historical figures and events. We believe that clothing is a great way to express yourself and your take on the world, as well as to bring a little bit of beauty in it. At the same time, each collection we release carries a certain idea and sometimes touches on very serious topics: the relationship between life and death, the importance of health, the desire to show strength, topics of struggle and independence."[3]

Dejmo

Between 2007 and 2020 the brand was known as Ergi by Piratessan. In 2011 we expanded our business into a retail one in addition to our own brand.

Between 2014 and 2020 our retail business traded under the name Lolitabutiken, selling various alternative brands such as Innocent World, Metamorphose, LIEF, Chocomint and many more.

With the launch of Dejmo in 2020 we're starting a new adventure that in many ways begins where we started in 2007. We're going back to our roots of historically inspired garments, made from natural fabrics and reclaimed vintage materials.

Fantastic Grim

Affordable 'Fable Fashion' Jewelry and Headwear

The name Fantastic Grim is concocted from "an omen laced with fanciful wonder", bringing together the light and dark sides of fairy tales. Fantastic Grim opened in early 2013, offering a variety of affordable charm jewelry and accessories made from mixed media. Originally a shop made exclusively for Lolita fashion (Classic and Gothic), they branched out to become more fashion flexible. Over time they introduced jewelry that fit various substyles such as Mori, Dolly Kei and even Steampunk. Today, Fantastic Grim has an eclectic mix of accessory styles that fall under the self-proclaimed category of "dream and nightmare jewelry".[10]
