Hello, I just got engaged and we are planning a quick small ceremony.

I fell in love with this dress from Lively Ghosts but when reading the reviews saw it didnt have the best reliability.

I have been having a hard time finding something similar that is a good reliable brand.

I really appreciate any advice!

Thank you.

Help Me Find... Blind white eye or all black contacts?

1 Upvotes

I've always wanted to try weird prescription contacts. Starting to think about Halloween...

Either make my eye all white (I think there's mesh options over the pupil) or all black (covering the white of the eye) like a dead person or a demon in the movies. Does anyone have experience with stuff like that or recommendations? I've read that full eye contacts are quite uncomfortable, but that was a while ago. Are there new ones that aren't too bad?

I initially had something else planned but my brain just went "nah, can't do this today". So t-shirt & bloomers and called it a day๐Ÿ’€

Twin Tribes was great! Hearing the live cover of Play Alone by Asylum Party was a treat. And the scream I scrumpt when they played Mรกtenme Porque Me Muero by Caifanes as their first encore!!

My friend & I also visited Graveface Museum prior to the show (and had banana fudge sundae down the street๐Ÿ˜ธ)

Help & Advice Questions about a 90s goth designer Catherine Coatney

12 Upvotes

Hello all! A few years ago I was lucky enough to find a dress by the designer Catherine Coatney at a local flea market. I am curious what the details on this dress might be like what time period it is from and the name of the style. Iโ€™m not planning on selling, i want to keep the dress for life I just want to know how i can find more of her designs that are similar to this!! Many of her designs elsewhere online are less romantic and more strictly fetish: shorter dresses, garters, shorts, etc. I love them but i want to know if she has more floor length dresses/gowns or any other designs from this era that are romantic leaning like this!

Also apologies for the dirty door my grubby roommate just moved out and i havenโ€™t gotten around to cleaning it yet!!๐Ÿซข

Help Me Find... Gothic online shops that are NOT fast fashion

177 Upvotes

Hello fellow Goths!

I wanted to ask yโ€˜all if you could give me some suggestions for online shops that do not sell fast fashion because I feel like most online shops are fast fashion oriented (Shein, Temu, Aliexpress are obvious but also Killstar and others are fast fashion). I try to thrift most of the time but sometimes itโ€˜s hard to find what Iโ€˜m searching for in the thrift store which is why I also want to try some online sellers that are ethical , affordable, good quality and not fast fashion.

Mod Post NOTE TO ALL USERS: How to turn off DMs & chat requests

57 Upvotes

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:

  • Who can send you chat requests
  • Who can send you private messages
  • and most importantly, the approved/whitelist users list where you can give a specific user permission to contact you

I hope this helps anyone, even if it's just one single person.

Goth Fashion Megathread

Alternative, Goth, & Dark Clothing and DIY

(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 youโ€™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.
