When one speaks of fashion, different cultures are known to follow different styles. One such prominent style existed few centuries ago. Famous by its intriguing name, the gothic style is back. Even some modeling agencies are known to promote the style. If the trend continues, it will not be long when almost every modeling agency will promote it. Mainly a Gothic Dress is a bleak black style of wardrobe used by people from Goth subculture.

The Gothic fashion clothing is quite distinct to extravagance. A plethora of dark velvets, gloves, lace, tight corsets, and also leather brightened with crimson is what describes this style. The style is further enhanced by wearing Dark make up. This obviously means putting on black lipsticks, dark eyeliner, and shady finger-nails along with dark-colored hair.

Initially, the style was prominent in the Gothic span which can be categorized into two spans. Early Gothic span was from 1200-1350 while the Late Gothic era was from 1350-1450. In the early span, outfits were more stylish and the cuts were quite plain as compared to Romanesque era.

Sleeves were tight giving more focus to the forearm area. It was followed by some lesser trimmings on those outfits. Apart from that, the dresses were long having deep necklines. However, things changed a bit in the later part of the gothic era.

It was actually the time for metamorphosis of earlier flowing draperies. As time went by, the fabric was made stiffer until the 15th century when the focus of design was the upper outline which had neat pleats, taut belts, thick sleeves and much more.

Fashion and style is almost incomplete without a certain type of hairdo. At that time men used to wear hair that was greater in length which was a bob cut extended up to ones jaw line having a slight bang over the forehead. Bleaching was common because blond hair were in at that time. Beards were a little uncommon in most of the gothic period. As with the later part of the Gothic span, men used to keep bobbed hair having carefully curled ends.

As for girls, they liked to keep their hairs loose falling on their shoulder. However, after marriage confining the hair into a neat bun was common. In order to cover the bun, different hair pieces were used such as a wimple and gorget was worn.

Some fishnet outfits of the gothic era are ideal for summer temperatures. You can easily carry them on your arms, legs and they also look outstanding as shirts or jumpers. Men’s shirts were designed having buckles, ruffles, and lacing giving a look that quite reminds of a pirate. During the summer, the male wardrobe essentially consists of light natural shirts along with short dark trousers. Other accessories were wide-brimmed sun-hats, dark umbrellas supplemented with silver ornaments.

Another important part of this wardrobe is the classy Gothic boots. They were black most of the times for both male and females; however a fabulous addition for females was that of high heels whereas, the male boots were usually flatted and heavy at the heels. An element of surprise was the red boots which was quite fancied at that time.
