I love a nice goth-inspired fashion line and the Bess Autumn/Winter 2009 collection rocks.
Taking the full rocker-chic cue (and maybe a page out of the book of Jimmy Page), the Bess Autumn/Winter 2009 collection has lots to offer then just wizarding apparel. Think leather jackets, chunky zippers and lots and lots of black.
Implications - The lookbook is done completely in black and white images which give it mysterious appeal. The girls wear dark eyeliner paired with dark lips while the male model is styled with shoulder length hair and a scruffy beard.
