Gothic

Your Gothic shop for dark fashion

Gothic is a subculture that developed from Punk and New-Wave music in the early 1980s. The beginning of the development was an interplay of music, especially Gothic Rock and the fascination for themes such as death, transience and the occult. Literature and film, which shaped the external appearance of the scene, also had a major influence. Edgar Allan Poe and H.P. Lovecraft remain part of standard Goth literature to this day.

In addition to the cultural aspects, a whole range of alternative clothing styles have developed within the black scene. This makes clear how strong the movement is based on optical aesthetics. It doesn’t matter which Gothic subgenre you belong to: We are your Gothic shop for everything your black heart desires!

Design your perfect Goth outfit

We provide you with everything you need for the next walk through the cemetery or the meeting with the coven. Shop short and long dresses from the hottest brands like Killstar, the probably most popular brand in the Nu Goth scene. You can find dresses in casual black, but also with crazy prints or fancy cuts with lots of lace. You prefer it more casual? Then BlackCraft Cult might be perfect for you.

Complete your Goth look with the perfect pair of gothic boots. You’ll find a whole range of different models in our shop, for example heavy Goth platform boots from Demonia. Classic Goth boots often have a high platform or heels at least and rivets, buckles or small bows are added to them. Decide for yourself whether you want to be carried to the next Goth party by plateau boots or maybe a pair of creepers!

Sip your witch’s potion from a kettle, decorate your altar with figures from Nemesis Nowand wrap yourself in a cozy blanket with Killstar’s Kreeptures.

The variety of Gothic styles - from Nu Goth to Pastel Goth

Anyone who thinks Gothic simply means a lot of black is wrong: The variety of Gothic styles has grown enormously over the years and is still in constant change today. Although the color black still predominates, it’s definitely not enough to describe all alternative styles.

It all started with Trad Goth: Elements of Punk and Rock are mixed with the dark elements of Gothic as we know it today. The style was born straight out of the New-Wave movement and is perfect for rocking in the club to The Cure or Joy Division.

One of the newer styles is the Nu Goth style: Occult symbolism, kimonos with a lot of lace and big hats create a witchy vibe. Almost the opposite is Pastel Goth, which allows many colors and bright make-up. If you like it more comfortable, you’re guaranteed to find what you’re looking for with the Casual Goth style.
