As you may see from the brand new trailer, Lili returns with all of the grace, magnificence, and smug self-confidence that we’ve come to know and love from the Rochefort Enterprises heiress, who’s sporting a fully darling new outfit, full with a frilled costume, leather-based waistcoat, and a model new pair of shoes, all of which nonetheless suits together with her iconic Goth Lolita vibe.
