What style do your prefer
 

Just in this figured i would make a pole onto what goth style everyone prefers i know i didnt get em all thats why there is the Other option so if you do choose other reply to say what you would describe it as,

This isn't fair. I wanted to click Deathrocker AND Victorian AND Other.:p Also, there should be more options.

I just thought I'd make a poll to find out what goth clothing style everyone prefers. I know I did not get them all, but that's why there is the "Other" option. If you choose "other", please reply to say what that is and how you would describe it.


Sorry, that was snarky. But I am bored and the poor writing skills displayed here offend me.
I wear a mixture of things. Sometimes Victoriana, sometimes that deathrocky punk look (but without the big hair), sometimes things in silver, sometimes my beloved fetish wear.

lol should i just set it to click more then 1 option?
i think it will let me do that

I prefer the Victorian, Romantigoth thing.

Sometimes I do my own Gothy bum thing when I'm lazy.
But that's not there.

I put dark and seductive but more be default. Really, I wear a lot of lace and velvet and like to always be very feminine but I am not anywhere near as, flowery, as Victorian. Dramatic probably but not as 'pretty.'

Sometimes I feel I am top goth and on bottom 1940's classic dame. I go around in stuff like black pencil skirts with seamed back black stockings on bottom then shirts like this

in black on top with a big garnet cross. (yes I really do shop there, a LOT, you can find a ton if you dig around)

I have a really big shiny black peep-toe shoe fetish too. I must have 30 pairs of slight variations.

Then I cross a very classic hairstyle (actually done the war era way with real pincurls and fingerwaves) with a dark purple smoky eye.

Dunno what 'style' that makes me, Rita Hayworth breeds with Dracula perhaps.

As far as other people go, really whatever matches them the best I suppose. I have seen all that you mention above on various people come of great on some and terrible on others. I think style really comes down to how it fits the individual more than anything else.

How is there response time? I only ask because I have had some bad experiences when dealing with online clothing purchases where it took a long time for orders to be processed just to find out that what I wanted was out of stock

Ooh it totally depends on what mood I'm in, I have all kinds of things in my wardrobe, from full-on bondage gear (not all for general consumption ;-) ) to complete Victoriana...but I'm generally a confused soul anyway lol :-D

Well, they are not bad by any means. I order most of my clothing online, as I live very far out in the desert. They are about average for online stores, it takes about 1 week for my clothes to arrive on average, it may be slightly faster if you are near a large city. It will tell you at your shopping cart if an item is out-of-stock. If it is you can delete it then before checkout or order anyway and as soon as it comes in they will ship it out. I would say that at least for me (living over 3 hours each way drive from the nearest small mall, nevermind other stores) it is one of my top two stores that order online from. I also really like Victorias Secret, again a good store if you dig around you can find some great stuff. Like this is one of my favorite shirts and skirts from there...

in black (though I actually button mine properly)

and this skirt below, it's hard to see that until you push the 'larger view' popup but it's black on black stripe and it has those pleat/button slits in the front too.

VS of course has great plain black satin PJ's and ballet length satin slips to sleep in too if you dress for bed too, like I do. But they do take slightly longer to arrive, not ages or anything but maybe more like 9-10 days as opposed to a week with Newport News.

But yea give them a try, they have some really nice lace, satin and velvet stuff and some cute shoes and coats too and adorable black velvet bags and such on occasion. If you don't like the service or clothing, you can just stick the return sticker they give you on it, check why it is being returned and drop it in a UPS box.

Ooh, that is a beautiful skirt! Nice almost-vintage feel to it with the exaggerated pleating.

They have one in a black and white tweed with that same cut that is even more vintage looking due to the fabric.

I'm afraid that I never got the hang of tweed... it's just not Del friendly.

Cyber all the way! I need to get some goggles and boots ^_^.

Baddass of course. Either I look baddass, or I look cute tryin to look baddass; it's a win/win situation.
Plus Victorian and Cyber annoy me.

Yea it can be tricky, not to mention itchy. Definitely not one of my favorite fabrics.

I definitely go with the badass approach, occasionally with touches of deathrock and bondage. Being badass takes less time than brushing a velvet jacket free of lint, and buttoning up a poet shirt, and I'm lazy.

My style: Very intense, extreme, eccentric, gothic. I like lacquer a lot and lots of jewellry.

Well, maybe you will get a picture of my everyday clothing from this:
Right now I am wearing
Black top, black skirt
Red bindi(spot on forehead), big Indian earrings, Brazilian necklace, big necklace that looks very royal and African, bracelet that looks Indian
Put on makeup a few hours ago, so some of it is gone: Pale powder, black slightly sparkly eyeshadow, deep pink lipstick

That should describe my taste in clothes pretty much. So, I am not "typically" goth, but I am very gothic. Really, I guess I prefer a black PVC skirt with a little black top and an underbust buckle corset or something. I do not really know what adjectives to use to describe what kind of gothic style I have, I prefer not to label it way too much, but I guess you could say an eccentric intense kind of gothic style. For me it is also a lot about jewellry, I might not always wear that typically gothic jewellry, though, I love classical Indian jewellry.

OOOO. I couldn't decide. I guess I should have choosen whatever I'm in the mood for. Lately, I've been feeling bery cybergothy. :D I'm buying some new clothes today. A lovely cybergoth outfit....for 141.98. T_T I have a Steampunk mood coming on though. =0

Got pictures of it?

I've been taking a rather tradgoth-ish route lately. I think?

I don't know exactly what you mean by dark and seductive, so I can't answer to that really.

I keep any victorian styling to smallish details, as things like bustles are a major no no for me, and I can't get corsets. Frilly things around the neck make my chins show up so..no. I just don't suit the look as an entirety.

I hate cyber.

Bondage suits very few people ,and even less can pull it off attractively. I am not one of these people, and I have little interest or knowledge of bondage anyway, so no.

I like the deathrock look, but I don't think the whole thing would suit me as I am now.

With me, I lean towards tradgoth (Yeah, I don't care too much for Victorian myself), vintage closet ('20s-'50s JD chick/drapette) and deathrock. I'm also becoming more and more tempted to get into traditional garb such as kente cloth and ao dais.

Don't really like cybergoth because for something that's supposed to be sleek and forward, it usually ends looking like a walking trash heap and is so ridiculously materialistic that it hurts my wallet thinking about it.

Victorian, albeit quite pretty, is a badly beaten and well tenderized dead carriage horse. And if you change some words around, it can describe fetish as well.

Overall, I like to keep it fresh and fascinating. Right now I'm diggin' on the vintage route because even torn fishnets need a break sometimes.

Yeah i did forget to put romantic i guess that would pretty much be the first one i think

I didn't know that "badass" was a style of goth. And that it was tied to deathrock. Haha.

lol i meant them to be the same thing just sounded spiffy to add that in. Since its a bit more rough around the edges. Death rocking badass maybe? *sigh* i need to work on the way i word things too bad i cant edit after i post a poll. so would be stuff like leather jacket with spikes and things like that. Speaking of styles i have been debating recently if i should add a pair of tight fit pants to my collection still not sure if i can pull it off though.
