Zettai Ryōiki

Seeing as we currently have nine clothing festish articles on the site, I been wondering if it would be worth making a page for Zettai Ryōiki (absolute territory). ZR is hugely popular, with a tvtropes page and subreddit dedicated to it, so should it also been included here?

Let me know what you think.

It's a very specific style that wouldn't have gotten its notability and spread without the internet.

I'd say it meets the criteria.

Seeing as we've added a lot of clothing entries recently; what about clothing such as Sailor Fukus and sukumizus? They tend to feature heavily in Japanese fanart. Would these warrant entries or are they too general to be considered memes/subcultures?

"Too general" would be schoolgirl outfits in general instead of focussing on Sailor Fuku, or one-piece swimsuits instead of the primarely Navy-blue (or white) Sukumizus.

The notable usage of these specific Japanese terms for sub-types of clothing we already have English terms for is evidence.

If you want to launch one, I can take care of the other.
