Gothic, Lolita & Punk Brand Book
The Gothic, Lolita & Punk Brand Book (GLP for short), was a Japanese mook published between 2005-2007[1][2]. In addition to the main line of brand books, they also published an interview book.
Volume 1 of the GLP mentions on it's cover that it is the 'separate catalog' for Rococo, an earlier 2-volume publication by the same publisher, Tatsumi.
Much like the Gothic & Lolita Bible, the Gothic, Lolita & Punk Brand Book features pages for each brand (typically one full page per brand) showing cut-out images of individual new garments with their names and prices. Modeled photoshoots of some pieces (typically 1 or 2 per brand) that were put together by the magazine also are included, as well as advertisements created by the brands. Each issue also has a small number of articles.[1]
The interview book, published in 2007, features interviews with designers from most major (and many indie) Japanese lolita brands. Each interview is about two pages long with a handful of pictures, and generally they give the history of the designer, the brand or both, as well as a few other pieces of information.
