You mean all this time we had a choice?!!!

from across the pond -what's hot topic? goth label? I have just been excited by the UK's embracing of beatnik style this atutumn and have pilfered many black pieces, recreating my own glorious throwback 80's goth style / messy blackness. ahhh. although being only 5 foot 4 I am starting to think that skin tight black jeans may have been an odd choice. oh well. mum's lent me her knee high boots from the 70's, so I'll gain some height, if not dignity, that way instead.

The whole point is you're an individual, right? Personally, I wear what I want. When Bauhaus comes around, I'm going to wear a bright yellow shirt that will blind everyone and send them screaming

good choice. one of my favourite odd clothing choices was a Peaches t-shirt with her song title "f*ck the pain away" curliqued across the front in pink to a women's rally in which I was participating. I had not really thought this one through, but thankfully electro was quite big at the time, so they recognised the song, and I'm clearly not a misogynistic lady, so all was well.

violet takes the young man's question seriously

she has dyed indigo hair of late
dyed with something called, ludicrously, pizazz
(hair has been pale blonde/white and dark chestnut also)

and dresses however she pleases

often in zen robes because she is a priestess in training
often in jeans and hooded sweatshirt because she is a film reviewer
often skyclad when it's warm in her desert
often in white like did a retiring writer of amherst
often in black silk, like a secretary turned bad

she has begun to wonder
very delicately

does anyone tread these boards
who is over the age of thirty

for she too cannot read the semi-numeric language of those
who have never held fountain pens
who have spent hours, perhaps, with his purple badness

it is, this tongue (she thinks), more byzantine and baroque
than that of her beloved
eighteenth century

might she meet others of her scarab-sapphic-sybilline kin

who might be yet more shy than she

Alright, I figure instead of making a new thread, why not jack this one. How do you make a pair of BDUs, (Battle Dress Uniform), or camouflage, look gothic, have a lot of black on it, and yet is practical enough that you can run normally, and it is pretty quiet. I am guessing no chains, or anything like that, but what about spikes, etc?

Hm... I'd go for modifying military surplus. You can find a lot of camo stuff at thrift stores if there isn't and Army Surplus store around where you live.

I have the BDUs, now I need to know how to make it so that it has more black on it, and has more spikes, and I can still run in it.

Well, I'm a guy, and am wanting a more edgy goth look.
What I have thought about doing:

Wearing black boots or skate shoes
Wearing slightly baggy black pants
Wearing dark blue t-shirt, or a hottopic shirt.
Wearing a black leather jacket overtop of the shirt.
Dying my hair very dark blue.
Wearing some face makeup, but not too overboard.

You are all welcome to suggest different ideas of course.

I think the dressing is cool. So, how long is your hair? But, that doesn't matter. And do you have any piercing? You don't have to wear the black leather jacket, if you wanna look simple. Just a black t-shirt or dark blue, that'd be enough. But, if you wanna look stylish, well yea' go ahead. About the hair, I prefer black color. It's okay if you like the dark blue. As long as it dark, ya know ;p Don't stress urself about this whole Goth. You'll look great. Trust me

You people are disgustingly lucky. I live in Estonia (anyone know where that is???.. exept for Aetermus), so that means I have to keep my eyes really open to get anything remotely cool to wear. Lately I have bocome attracted to the victorian style... that means I have to sow my own clothes. Hell.. there are only 2 shops where you can get spikes that are made to last. Not talking about the cheap replicas you can get from anywhere, but really goos spikes made from real leather and metal.

Aw, Mort, you're cute ^.^

Sorry about the bad luck, rage. You know, maybe there are pet store around where you live? Somtimes they have spiked dog collars and things... and they always have chains It'd be interesting to see what the pet store owner would think if you told them why you were buying them ^.^
