We plan on presenting different alternative clothing styles. I don’t claim that everything is right and some may definitely disagree, but it is my view on the different styles at least. If you disagree please tell me in the comment field and I may edit the article if I agree with you.

I’ll start with one of my personal favourites, the Victorian Goth.

Victorian Goth

Ida in a Victorian Goth outfit we will add to the shop in January or February.

Victorian goth takes inspiration from Victorian fashion, lifestyle and literature. Women wore corsets, lace and extravagant dresses, men wore top hats, waistcoats and cummerbunds. Some Victorian goths pride themselves in historical accuracy, while others develop the style by emphasizing the corset for example.

Bram Stokers Dracula is one of the great inspirations for many Victorian Goths and some will try to live as close to the high class Victorian lifestyle as possible by indulging in theater, opera, masquerades and so on.
