it varies a lot bc i mostly buy used, i've paid everything from 1100 yen (around $7 USD) to several hundred dollars for japanese brand lolita dresses. new pieces, depending on the brand, country or origin, and the design, can run like maybe $50 (simple dress from a chinese indie brand for example) to like $2000 (extremely elaborate wedding dress from JP brand)
you can use https://lolibrary.org/ to browse past releases from brands all over the world to get a sense of what you may like, then find those brands' shops or search secondhand. i also made a secondhand lolita shopping guide here: https://soapbubbleseal.net/spotlight/shoppingpt1
Your lolita wardrobe is always a joy to thumb through
