Drawing inspiration from the romanticism of Regency and Victorian eras, feminine silhouettes from the 1950s, and Japanese Lolita style, coquette aesthetic is a guilt-free fashion confection! Both playful and sophisticated—reminiscent of recent trends like cottagecore and balletcore—the coquette vibe is unapologetically girly.

Think bows, frills, pastel colors, delicate lacy details and high femme touches.

Today I listed this darling little girl's coat and bonnet set from an estate of a young woman who died unexpectedly a few months ago. She wore it herself during the early 1990s. I love the pink color and it's about the "girliest" thing I have among my listings. I can't find out anything about the designer or manufacturer, though I have seen similar coats listed elsewhere online.
