Your Style

[Arc_Avalo]

I wanted to know if anyone here has their own style of gothic dress. If you're not industrial, victorian, or rivethead, then what exactly are you? My style is red dragon; based completely on my alter ego. The style is defined by red being the dominant color over black (instead of the other way around). Also, I tend to wear a lot of dragons on my body. T-shirts, jewelry, etc. I also like wearing spikes when I'm wearing that style. Sometimes, though, I just go all-out industrial. Does anyone else have their own style?

[Phayte]

I wear what I want.. whether it's my hubbys t-shirt or black lace, but if I have to pick on thing I would say I love black lace with red under it and black crystal jewelry. I think my look is slightly victorian, but I'm not sure. I have nothing in real life to compare myself to.

[horrorgirl]

I wear whatever is clean at this point. I work way too much and never have time do do anything social. I usually shop for groceries in my pajamas if that tells you anything.

[BlackWidow]

I am the same- I wear what I want. But I usually try to match the reds and the blacks. If I wear red and black pants, I wear a red and black shirt. Duh. I like lace and fishnet. I like to creat new trends and styles, especially with my hair.

[Scythan]

I enjoy knee-high and thigh-high socks. They have designs or stripes on them, and I try to wear something that shows them off as much as possible: normally skirts. I don't wear really short skirts, so I end up not showing skin at all. When I wear those, I don't care much about what I wear as a shirt.

Another thing I like to do is wear formal pants, with a formal shirt. I tend to look like I just walked out of a corporate office, but I wear black eyeliner and can pull it off without looking dumb.

Usually, though, I just end up wearing whatever.

[Bride_Of_Satan]

I think I'm more Victorian Gothic than anything. I wear laced bustiers and frilly skirts. I often like to wear fishnet gloves and black combat pants. I don't wear hooded tops with band names splattered across the front - I don't know about anyone else but I think that's a punks style rather than Gothic.

[horrorgirl]

I plan on buying a TSOL hoodie this month so I guess I'm not 'goth'.

Can someone please update on the use of TSOL as an acronym? What the hell does it stand for...? I know there's The Soundtrack of Our Lives, but isn't that TSOOL? I don't keep up with the use of acros.

[katsumy]

My style is kinda "dificult" because it goes from punk to goth -a mix I'll say- But I just LOVE it that way is "play full"

[Disfunction]

My style is a self-manufactured concept; I'll buy whatever I find in a variety of stores, some portions of which would be labelled as "preppy" some "gothic" and others somewhat undefined. If I see it, and I like it, I'll buy it. If I can't afford it, I'll get something like it.

I'm in love with clothes.

I'm guessing she means "True Sounds of Liberty", one of the original hardcore punk bands..

Or "That Smells of Licorice".

Could go either way really..

[NyQuil of Doom]

My style is whatever the heck I feel like, although more often than not I end up with a short-sleeved T-shirt over a long-sleeved one (often the short-sleeved one features an odd or witty saying, and the long-sleeved one is usually solid black, solid grey, solid red, or striped), black flare or boot-cut trousers of some sort, and my combat boots.

I also wear a fair bit of velvet.

[angleangel_doom]

Art freak cyber Jap style.
'Tis my only love. Once ina while I will wear my rave junk, once in a while my Victorian stuff...once in a while a big sweater(but a lot more often now that it's cold as fuck here), once in a while an anime tee, and once in a GREAT while just a t-shirt and some jeans.
There. I said it.

[winged_dreams]

My style is comfortable and lots of layers in winter. I usually wear jeans. I wear various anime, band shirts, and girly shirts when the weather permits. I wear black hoodies and black short boots. Simple style. ^^

[Demonista_Ravenesque]

When I'm at home, I'm usually parading in jeans or mini shorts and a band shirt, When I'm at a concert, I dress in a well....*cybergoth* or *candy raver* kinda way, in Public...I dress like what I wear to concerts but if I'm too lazy to put effort it, just random bits of punk and basic stuff will do.

[winged_dreams]

I don't dress to attract attention (at least not that I'm aware of). I hate when I think people are staring at me.

[Sanctus Dei]

Well this depends on if I have a day off of work. It's usually a t-shirt and pants. But in public I would call it classic/******/sex kitten type gear. I love corsets, skirts, combat boots, fishnet...etc. BUT I'm lazy.. really lazy. (not to mention broke as hell)

[winged_dreams]

Heh. I'm broke too. Stupid expensive college.

[Jazzaram]

I don't realy call my style anything, but it is prity unique. It's mostly casual, with jeans, black, white, and green t-shirts, silk and cotton shirts of all colors, and sometimes jewlrey with dragons, wolves, and/or cobras on them. Like my intrests, my cloths are a mesh of goth, hippi, punk, and wiccan influences.

[xXambivalenceXx]

pretty* Sorry... it bothered me.

As for my style, it does change. Sometimes I wear a "sophisticated" outfit, or so a friend says, which is just a white blouse, my glasses, black slacks, and whatever necklace I feel like picking up with my black/white houndstooth jacket. Sometimes I'm casual, like today, with blue jeans and a "Crab Scrambly Little Red" tee, or playful in my black pants and corset top. Really, I just wear whatever I'm in the mood for...

[Rhapsody]

There was a comedienne who said, “I base my fashion sense on what doesn’t itch”.

I have to agree.

[Bete Noire]

I wear comabt boots. Baggy trousers. *Watches his Goth Point Counter plumme*. And usually a plain short-sleeved t-shirt over a long-sleeved one. Not greatly original I know. But I'm only 14. I have time to learn...

[Needled]

Baggy hoodies, skinny jeans, and polka dotted flats. I love polka dots and flats, so my polka dotted flats are probably the best thing i have in my closet. I also like to wear band tees with colorful striped t-shirts underneath them. I used to always wear miniskirts with fishnet stockings and converse... my style changes all the time...

[Tall One In Black]

I guess I could label my style "practically gothic" - meaning I wear clothes that are practical (comfortable, easy to take care of) while still being somewhat gothic.

For example, practical means:
All of my clothes are machine washable, no ironing required.
All of my shoes and boots are comfortable for walking.
The vast majority of my tops are stretchy knit to accommodate my wide shoulders.
I generally stick with simple styles that can be mixed and matched easily.

gothic:
Most of my clothes are black. (This is also practical.)
I mix in lace, velvet, satin and tulle when appropriate.
My jewelry is gothy silver.
I wear striped tights or fishnets instead of plain tights.
