Just in time for Halloween, the goth trend has resurfaced and is a strong influence for Winter 13 fashion.
It’s no surprise that the
current obsession with dark fairytales has turned designers dark and
deadly for Autumn. There is an obvious Victorian influence and the
catwalks boasted ethereal looks of leather and
lace fabrics, studs and embellishment and black-on –black palettes.
And if you think black is
boring, think again! The neo-Gothic movement of this season channels a
new noir and glam vamp that makes me want to revert to a monochromatic
wardrobe. The trick here is to lift the
look with some shine. All things metallic, silver and gold are a must
for this look. Coated leathers and fabrics, iron-on studs and pyramid
trims… anything goes really! For prints look to the oh-so-obvious skull prints and gothic crosses as well as take on animal and lace prints
And if an enrolment in cultish groups, black lipstick and goth music isn’t your thing, embrace this trend through jewellery. It’s probably the easier way to achieve the look.
Layered jewellery is key with
this trend. Think multiple rings and stacked bracelets. Collections
of rings are eclectic and goth-inspired with studs and gothic crosses
offering an edgy take on the look.
The bracelet-ring is everywhere! It is definitely an item to watch for seasons to come.
