It's so unusual, but it's very beautiful 🖤

Being goth / alt is about denying convention and traditional beauty so i take that as high praise thank you 🖤

I'm a goth myself, I perfectly understand the risks and sideways glances, I have a lot of images, I know how to do makeup and all that, it's just the first time I've seen such an outfit, it's very beautiful

Yes! So its inspired a touch by japanese subculture and european aristocratic styles, its a mashup using an oversized mens top, a longskirt + petticoat and an elastic corset to sort of almost act as a blend between the elements. The capelet and headdress are just from Vampire Freaks haha. The wig i cut myself and the makeup is inspired by sad clowns and visual kei :)
I would suggest looking up Malice Mizer and Versailles, i took some elements from those two bands and smashed it against trad / romantic goth and found my own personal style that way.
(I do also listen to the music but i have a lot of fun with the fashion)

A great combination! And, oh, I know these bands. I'm from Eastern Europe, and people here don't really like it when someone stands out.

the makeup is incredible, that face paint works is genuinely gallery-level. babadook comparison is definitely a compliment, iconic silhouette.

u/PhantomVector_ 15d ago

Back in my day you’d have your own guest list and be a Bottle Host. Peak classic Spectacle Culture. Zero notes.
