GUIDE TO MORI KEI!! 森系

mori kei is one of the many early 2000s subcultures that originated from the harajuku district inspired by living in the woods.

wearers of this type of clothing are usually referred to as mori girl (森ガール) or mori boy (森ボーイ). basically, forest girl/boy.

this subculture is based on nature and gives off a more elven/fae feel, its main color pallet consisting of earth tones, greens, whites, and other soft colors. plaid is a pattern that occasionally appears in mori kei fits, and sometimes baby blues and pinks will appear for a contrast to an outfit.

if you want to look for some clothing that would fit with this aesthetic, look for something loose and natural, and pieces that layer well together. such as a large cardigan/sweater vest that goes well with a frilly dress/skirt and leg warmers and tights. pants may also be used for a more masculine look.

"ゆるふわ" is what the loose layers achieve, hiding the curves of the body and therefore the wearer has a "fluffy" appearance. when layering, make sure to begin with the lightest/thinest layer first, and then move on to heavier materials.

lace, light materials, and embroidered clothes are musts, while accessories such as shawls, tights, and scarfs add to the layered effect.

linen, wool, and cotton are fabrics that are often used. fabrics that drape nicely will be your bff when creating a mori kei outfit.

mori kei is actually quite similar to cottagecore, but while cottagecore is focused on a rural life, mori kei is more based on forests and nature itself.

It also expresses a love of the forest, quiet hobbies, reading, drinking tea, herbalism, and a natural lifestyle.

hair and makeup often match with the almost whimsical and natural look of the outfits. makeup is kept relatively basic, with use of colors such as beige, pinks, and golds. minimalistic igari makeup is a nice example.

DARK MORI KEI/MORI GOTH

a subcategory of mori kei is mori goth, which uses darker, less saturated colors of the usually light color scheme of mori kei. it still follows the same layering scheme and relaxed silhouette, but as of now it has separated into strega, another subculture.

YAMA KEI

a more practical subcategory, usually for fans of the outdoors who love hiking/camping. this includes brighter and more vivid colors while also reverting to more practical clothes.

HAMA KEI

hama kei is a beach-based section, with uses of lighter clothing and less layers, as well as blues and yellows. you'd also see things such as stripes, anchors, and denim to add to the sailor-like outfits

I found mori kei pants!! Yes!!

They were on sale because the store location closes down. They're perfect for summer and very comfy! (I have to do a slight fit alteration but they're also fine as is.)

Check out the cute pattern on them (first detail picture). Aren't the little leaves adorable?

The golden short-sleeved crochet cardigan is thrifted and the blouse handmade (by me!). The lace headband is also handmade (by a friend). This is very casual mori but summer is just not suitable to the usual layers of mori kei.

[Id]Two close up pictures: one of the intricate leaves pattern on a cream-coloured pair of summer pants, one of the bigger leaves pattern on a brown summer blouse. The second close-up shows a young white woman with glasses and two braids draped in front of her face. She's wearing the brown blouse with the leaves pattern on it and a golden-coloured crocheted short-sleeved shrug.

The next 3 pictures show the same young white woman with glasses and two braids posing in front of some green shrubbery, extending her hand invitingly to the viewer, looking ino the distance and slightly crouching down.[/id]

➺ Valon: Vol 1

A while ago I started compiling my favorite pages from Forestsandtea's Mori Magazine Archive, which I have linked below. I decided to ruffle through and pick out the creme of the crop and add a few observations.

I really love the graphic design of a lot of mori magazines, Valon is no exception, it's not necessarily the most interesting observation, but it's still something I enjoy, that scrapbook style.

.⁎̩͙ ⁂̩̩͙͙ ⁑̩͙̩͙ ⁎̩͙·.·⋆*

➺ pg.29

I particularly like the colour scheme of the bottom right coord, the muted plum of the shirt, to the general earthy tones. The cap she wears is really cute and the dark contrasting tone draws the eyes upwards. I feel like there should be more range in colour within street mori, seems I mostly see earthy neutrals.

࿔⁎̩͙ ⁂̩̩͙͙ ⁑̩͙̩͙ ⁎̩͙·.·

➺ pg.39-43

This is one of the few mori boy spreads I've found over my searches, it's just everything!! The treehouse whimsy and natural lighting, and the actual outfit is an excellent example of how to retain an A-line silhouette in a masculine outfit. I wish i had the shorts on pg.40.

⋆⁎̩͙⁑̩͙̩͙⁂̩̩͙͙⁎̩͙·*:･࿔

➺ pg.52-53

Nothing much to say really, I just love a good collection and the range of shoes is fun to pour over. I kinda wish I could wear those chunky heels that occasionally show up in mori mags, unfortunately I'm really clumsy. (>。<)⌒☆
