Punk Goth

Punk clothing - Online Superstore

Gothic fashion is a clothing style worn by members of the Goth subculture ; a dark, often doleful, eroticized fashion and style of dress. Standard Gothic fashion includes black dyed and crimped hair and black garments. Both masculine and female goths infrequently wear dark eyeliner and dark fingernails. Styles are sometimes borrowed from the Punks, Victorians and Elizabethans. BDSM imagery and paraphernalia are also common. Some haute couture designers, especially Alexander McQueen and John Galliano, have been related to the goth aesthetic.

Cintra Wilson declares that "The origins of recent goth style are found in the Victorian cult of mourning." Valerie Steele is a professional in the history of the style.

Punk fashion is the styles of clothing, haircuts, cosmetics, jewellery, and body alterations of the punk subculture. Punk fashion varies widely from Vivienne Westwood styles to styles modeled on bands like The Exploited. The distinct social dress of other subcultures and art movements, including glam rock, skinheads, rude boys, greasers, and mods have influenced punk fashion. Punk fashion has likewise influenced the styles of these groups, as well as those of popular culture. Punks use clothing as a method of making a statement.

Deliberately offensive T-shirts were popular in the early punk scene, for example the famous DESTROY T-shirt sold at SEX, which featured an inverted crucifix and a Fascist Swastika. These T-shirts, like other punk clothing items, were often torn on purpose. Other items in early UK punk fashion included : Anarchy symbols ; brightly-colored or white and black dress shirts at random covered in slogans ( like "Only Anarchists are pretty" ) ; fake blood; patches; and deliberately questionable pictures ( like portraits of Marx, Stalin and Mussolini) were popular. Leather rocker jackets and customised blazers were early, and are still a common fixture of punk fashion.

Punk fashion has been very commercialised at numerous times, and many well-established fashion designers - such as Vivienne Westwood and Jean Paul Gaultier - have used punk elements in their production. Punk clothing, which was initially handmade, became mass produced and sold in record stores and some smaller specialty clothes shops by the 1980's.
