Liz Lisa Summer Collection 2008 Scans

Posted on February 17, 2021February 19, 2021

hello

Hey cutie! I’m literally SO excited right now. One of my dear friends, Olivia (here’s her IG!) uploaded some scans of her Liz Lisa Summer Collection 2008 Catalogue and aaaaah I am dying! It’s just so inspiring to see how gyaru Liz Lisa shop staff and models were back in the day. They’ve all got that lovely tan, the blonde/light-coloured hair… It just gives me so much life!

Hope you enjoy these scans are feel as inspired as I do just flicking through them (´,,•ω•,,)♡

My Thoughts about the 2008 Liz Lisa Summer Collection

The clothes are completely different to what you see now (if you’re interested, you can read more about it over on my post where I talk about the development of Liz Lisa/Himekaji). The forms are generally a lot more floaty and free where the dresses it’s tighter up top near the chest before flowing out. Not to mention that there’s a lovely array of bright colours here! I haven’t seen that in himekaji (and what I call “popteen kei”) for a very long time.

I especially love that there aren’t a lot of floral patterns in this collection. Yes, sure, there are a few items that have it but generally speaking it’s a lot more focussed on the colours. And I just love all of the names they’ve given! My favourites are definitely the denim blue dress that Yui Kanno is wearing (which I actually have in my summer wardrobe tehe) and the bags in the Liz Lisa Twinkle (which was a sub-brand of Liz Lisa).

The gyaru vibes are strong in 2008!

Which was your favourite item?

    Glad you enjoyed this oldie! 🙂 I have a feeling Liz Lisa was aimed at a slightly older audience back than (even just going by the fact that they used to be featured in Vivi magazine is a clue.) Oh, and the toddler clothes! ☺️ Liz Lisa feels more like a teen brand now. Not that it matters, I still buy Liz Lisa now & I’ll be turning 30 in a couple of days. I do miss the smiling girls: it’s so fun, girly & a little bit sexy. I hope you like the rest of the catalogs!

      Honestly – thank you so so much for giving me permission to post these on my blog! This is one of my favourite eras and I was shaking with excitement! I’ve been looking for pics of the blue dress for ages and now I’ve found it 😭
      Yeah Liz Lisa was a lot more gyaru and wild and sexy back then! Nowadays, like you said, is a lot younger or at least more kawaii fashion than gyaru fashion
