I've gotten requests to post a few designs that are a "Work In Progress" for possibly future releases so here is what I've been working on recently...
KEIKO'S FASHION KLOSET Proudly featuring:LOLITA FASHION
A brief description about Lolita Fashion: It is a fashion subculture originating in Harajuku, Japan that is based on Victorian-era clothing as well as costumes from the Rococo period. Naturally since then the fashion has evolved and branched out into many different styles of "Lolita" while still retaining elements of the fashion's roots. The original silhouette is of a knee length skirt or dress with a 'cupcake' shape assisted by petticoats, but has expanded into various types of garments including corsets and floor lengths skirts. Blouses, knee high socks or stockings and headdresses are also worn. (Learn more about Lolita Fashion from Wikipedia here:

I attempted to pay homage to my favorite style of fashion by recreating it in the virtual world of AChat. It was difficult working with the restrictions and limitations of the game but the results of my labor has made me very proud. These dresses are by far my most detailed and taken the most time to design out of all my textures.
1. GOTHIC LOLITA
Most of you are already familiar with this dress I revealed in February. This is the Gothic Lolita Style. Most recognizable by the high contrast of black and white. Dark or smokey makeup is also worn.
2. SWEET LOLITA
Focusing on the fantasy aspects of Lolita, the Sweet Lolita style adopts the basic Lolita format and uses lighter colors and an essence of innocence in its design. Makeup used in sweet Lolita is common throughout most Lolita styles. Pink, Peach, or Pearl make up styles are highly 'sweet' and used by many Sweet Lolitas. This look, paired with a shade of bright pink, red or sometimes nude-pink lipstick, is commonly used as well. I'm still trying to tweak the height map with this texture so it looks less like a marshmallow dress,

3. PUNK LOLITA
Punk Lolita (or Lolita Punk) adds punk fashion elements to Lolita fashion. Motifs that are usually found in punk clothing, such as tattered fabric, ties, safety pins and chains, screen-printed fabrics, plaids, and short, androgynous hairstyles are incorporated into the Lolita look. I've only begun working on the height map for this design so it's not quite ready to be applied to the texture just yet.
4. GURO LOLITA
Guro Lolita (Gore Lolita) is the portrayal of a 'broken doll' or "Innocent Gore" by using items such as fake blood, make-up, and bandages to give the appearance of injury. It is suggested that Guro Lolitas wear white to "emphasize the contrast between purity and their wounds", or because blood contrasts better with white.
