森ガール (Mori girls)











The mori girls (森ガール) belong to a Japanese subculture. 'Mori' means forest in Japanese, and they look like fairytale forest wanderers. Mori girls choose to live their lives on their own terms, stopping to appreciate the little things that others overlook amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life.
Mori girls are often seen in loose dresses or smocks, vintage blouses, puffed sleeves, A-line skirts tights and leggings and many-layered ensembles. They delight in beautiful fabrics and textures, preferring natural to synthetic materials, and are impartial to autumnal shades reminiscent of forest glades such as deep reds, greens, blues and browns. They keep warm with knits and furs in winter, and ponchos and leather boleros in the fall.

Las Mori girls pertenecen a una subcultura japonesa. "Mori" significa bosque en japonés, y justamente son chicas que parecen salidas de cuentos en bosques, como Caperucita Roja, aunque prefieren colores más naturales, tradicionales o cálidos como la gama de los marrones, azules, verdes o crudos. Las Mori girls se caracterizan por sus vestidos amplios, blusas vintage, faldas en forma de "A", medias, leggings, etc. Pueden llevar grandes bufandas, gorros y orejeras en invierno. Suelen llevar el pelo suelto y un maquillaje natural que exalte un rubor saludable en las mejillas.
