(Before I start, I will admit I took this from r/goth Fashion Wiki page, but since this is essentially a sister subreddit, it's not a crime.)
Though not a requirement, many goths like to dress in dark/alternative fashion and/or model themselves after their favourite goth musicians.
We tend to recommend a mixture of DIY, thrifting/charity shops and within moderation, branded clothing or items. Additionally, you can always support your favourite bands, musicians, and artists by buying their merchandise from their official shops and/or Bandcamp pages. RedBubble and/or other licensed shops are also options.
You can use online second-hand websites to search for these brands as sometimes people buy clothing they don't wear and then sell them with their tags still attached. Buying second-hand is a great way to grab a bargain, be "green" and even, if you're wary, to not giving your money to a brand who may or may not be using "goth" as a way to make profit e.g. taking our subculture and selling it back to us with fast fashion, poor quality clothing, etc.
Cadaver Kelly put together a Second-Hand Alternative Brands List to use use as an alternative to thrifting or charity shops, since not everyone is fortunate to have one near by. The content is listed below but we may update from time to time.
We most likely won't be listing make-up brands as you can practically buy dark eye shadow, lipstick, etc. absolutely anywhere these days. The list would be mega long and we can't always tell if the brands are ethically sourced, so we would prefer not to try.
If you’re looking for how frame/to take better fashion photos, see here.
Disclaimer: D*llskill are on the blacklist and we do not recommend buying from them, given their history of racism and cultural appropriation, ableism, stolen designs, etc. This also includes Killstar, as they are also problematic. Information page coming shortly.
A large part of goth is the DIY and thrifting, if you're interested you can visit Off-The-Rack Goth Brands by Caroline Sometimes and watch, view, or save a DIY Clothing playlist on YouTube.

I just want everyone to know that you can control who can DM you.
We shouldn't have to do this, however, it may save a lot of unsolicited DMs from creeps we can't see harassing/abusing our members because they've not commented in the subreddit.
If you go to your settings and then choose the "Chat & Messaging", there's an options to:
I hope this helps anyone, even if it's just one single person.

I live with a family where painting your nails any color is considered gay(i don't have any problem with them btw, just adding context), and as someone who loves the trad goth makeup, to the point i think is straight art, i wish to wear it. But getting BS from my family demotivates me a little, plus i haven't done any makeup before. How do i find a way to express myself and just feel good wearing something that feels good to me without so much backlash?

It’s hotter than Satan’s ballsack out there, so I did a simple dressed down look today, BUT I challenged myself to step out of my comfort zone by wearing a crop top out in public for the first time ever! 🐻
I think I like it!
Also, my American Pyscho impression is pretty spot on, yeah? Y’know, if he were fat and a vampire.

I've got 4 pairs of Demonia boots and they're soo big. How do you guys store them? I'm looking for inspiration so that I can have them next to the front door, but they're so big that most shoe racks don't fit them.

What are some of y’all’s statement pieces,
clothes you wear on a day to day basis, or just stuff you would recommend? I usually keep it basic just, all black tees and pants, vintage Chippewa steel toes that are beat up to hell lol, a black bandanna tied around my left boot, a heavy pewter belt buckle made in the US, and sometimes a wallet chain.

Unfortunately I don’t know much about this brand, but I’d love to learn more! I really loved this piece I found at the thrift store but it doesn’t really fit me right (It’s a large and I’m a small). I’m looking to resell it but I don’t know how old it is or what to price it as. I tried reverse image searching on google but couldn’t find anything about this exact top

The second picture is an example of what I think could be an idea but I don't know. I was guessing drawstring based backpacks but I honestly want advice from people who are use to putting their new rocks in their backpacks when traveling 🥹😭

1st pic is the look i tried to recreate, 2nd and 3rd is how it ended up looking and the rest of the pics is me without makeup so u know what i look like. i think i have some water retention/bloating in my face and obviously some mild acne so maybe thats why the look doesnt look the same. i also didnt do exactly the same makeup but pretty similar.
what type of alt makeup would u guys think would suit me? like suit my current face shape and features. maybe something simiar to the 1st pic? idk if youre allowed to comment pictures but if u are id appreciate some inspo pics!

Found a gorgeous mural/tag on my late night mission for sweets. Leather and PVC are so classy, but the breathability definitely isn’t for the weak!! Can you tell I just had the worse mixed drink of my life before the first pic? Because I can’t forget it… 🤢🪦
