100 Gothic-Inspired Styles

From Regal Gothic Fashion to Glamorous Gothic Designs

— January 23, 2013 — Fashion
Gothic-inspired clothing has always been a favorite amongst young teens looking to express their moods and personality, and this very distinctive genre of style can be seen as a source of inspiration for several modern day fashion editorials.

Gothic style encompasses a variety of different elements which come together to create an overall dark and edgy feel. Utilizing elements such as dark colors, strong and edgy makeup, and deeply emotional expressions, these editorials have all used the gothic style as an inspiration for their collections.

The beautiful part of these gothic-inspired editorials is that each of them seem to have incorporated more than just one style of fashion. Whether it be Victorian gothic couture or glamorous gothic ensembles, the blend of gothic style with other genres of fashion make for beautifully striking collections.
