it's how you do it - not OTT. for example, if you dress like you're going clubbing to do the groceries is just silly.
this skirt would be good for everyday.

Cybergoth makes me cringe, the worm-like hairfalls are just unforgivable.

Though I'm not quite much of a fan anymore, I can deff say that it's more or less a good thing such things go on in a bigger picture kind of way.
Cybergoth is good insofar as a means of making self expression not such a taboo but simply another common thing.

I like the cryoflesh shirt. It is more modern because it is strapless.
Goth Beauty is a continuation of somebody's idea of what Goth is. Probably based off of Ann Rice Novels. However, Goth doesn't really have anything to do with vampires, Victorian, or Elizabethian clothing, though most Goths enjoy some type of horror or murder mystery genre. In fact, I find it creepy when I see people wearing costumes all the time. There was one gal who dressed in a wedding gown all the time. Just looked like a desparate cry for attention.

The skirt is interesting, but very unusual.
Catch: Goth fashion these days does, indeed, have to do in part with Victorian-era clothing. It's called "Romantic Goth" or "Victorian Goth", and is actually one of the more common looks. [Feel free to look up the "Goth stereotype" thing I posted in your vid]
As for the wedding gown thing, I have no idea what to say to that, except that I'm unsure how you relate wearing a wedding dress all the time to Goth fashion....unless she was dressed as Dracula's bride/a zombie bride/in a black "wedding dress".

Actually, I think cybergoth has more age-withstanding power than EGL, but not by much. XD
Still adore EGL though! *le sigh*

It's an especially bad message to people, because it is related to this horror story where this old women hires young boys to be friends with her granddaughters and then kills them. The woman wearing a wedding dress thinks she was stood up, but her boyfriend is buried in the basement. I don't recall the name of the story; however, portraying a woman who is broken and desperate to get away from her family couldn't be all that good.

What the frack..?
Well, if this woman is constantly wearing a wedding dress in relation to a horror story, she's either EXTREMELY hard-core or insane. Or both. [On the other hand, that sounds like a good plot for a cheesy horror flick. XD]
Either way, I'm not sure how this relates to Gothic Beauty magazine or goth fashion in general..

I must admit I've never seen a copy of Gothic Beauty and didn't really follow the thread, but this sounds a lot like Dickens' Great Expectations.
In the novel Miss Havisham, a crazy old woman, grief-stricken because she was stood up on her wedding day, who still wears her tattered wedding dress (which is goth as fuck if you ask me), invites the protagonist Pip to play with her granddaughter Estella. It's in no way a horror story though, the boy isn't killed and the fiance really stood her up.
If there is a horror story like the one you mention is must be based on this.

Mrs. Havisham sounds right. Anyway, there is a group of Goths and Gamers who dress up like characters in literature. That is the group Goth Beauty seems to cater to. It is okay, I guess, but it looks weird in day-to-day modern life.
