The Truth About Goth Fashion

by Sydney Jaclyn

Tell someone that you like to dress in all-black, and they might suspect you're a Goth. However, while black is the staple of Goth fashion, it takes more than that to dress like a Goth. While the Goth subculture itself is not about fashion, the way you dress tells the world how you perceive yourself.

What is the purpose of dressing like a Goth? To express yourself. Black is a good place to start, but many Goths add varying shades of gray and even white to their outfits.

Goth styles can be downright colorful these days. We're starting to see rich tones such as dark red or royal blue, and even hot pink showing up in such outfits. But still, one thing remains consistent: Black is the primary color.

The right accessories are most important when you dress according to the Goth style. The style is characterized by lots of jewelry and often lots of piercings. Silver or pewter jewelry is common, usually in dramatic or chunky styles.

Another important part of someone's identity is religious symbols, which are often worn as pendants. Gloves and sleeves (arm warmers) are often worn, as are patterned tights. Striped or fishnet tights are a way to work color into Goth fashion.

It's very easy to find clothes that will help you dress in a Goth style. One great place to start is at a local thrift shop. You'll be able to find a lot of stuff for a very low price, so you won't have to feel nervous about altering it to suit you. You can dye it, add studs, or whatever else to make it truly yours.

Of course, because there are more people than ever interested in Goth now, many stores cater to this and have lines of clothing available that will suit as well. Make the outfit your own with accessories and jewelry.

This is only one way of thousands to dress in the Goth fashion. It's all about expressing who you are, and no two Goths will look exactly alike.
