What is alternative clothing?
Alternative clothing is a fashion style that leaves mainstream behind. It actually covers a very broad range of different sub styles, each having their own distinct characteristics. For decades alternative clothing has existed, although it is significantly changing over time. There were the Greasers in the fifties, the punks in the seventies. Members of a subculture that wear alternative clothing can easily be picked out from the crowd. The styles are so unique that they can’t be mmistaken for regular outfits. Today, one of the most popular alternative clothing styles is gothic fashion. Alternative fashion is never a stand alone or superficial characteristic of a person. It is accompanied by a subculture with its own ideas, morals and rituals. Wearing the special clothing that goes with the culture makes you feel like a true member of the group. It also lets the outside world know what you are all about.
Characteristics of alternative goth clothing
Gothic or goth fashion is a type of alternative clothing. The Goth subculture subscribes to this style. Gothic fashion has characteristics that set it apart from other alternative clothing styles. Goth clothing is marked especially by dark features, completed with antique details. A complete ensemble is meant to convey a sense of mystery. Some morbid details can be part of the look. The clothing is completed with dark eyeliner and black nail polish for both men and women. Key to the style is contrast. Dark clothing, black hair and dark lips appear extra vibrant when combined with a pale complexion. Of course it is possible to combine alternative clothing with more regular outfits. For instance, you could combine a gothic dress with regular shoes or make a statement with a gothic purse.
