r/GothStyle • • 5h ago

Asking for Advice Can anyone ID what shoes are these? I thrifted these demonias long time ago like 2019? They were my favorite. I lent them to my friend and she completely ruined them. I know there is lot of similar ones but I would like to find exactly this model. The platform part is also covered in the leather.

Looking for Recommendations ISO extremely long sleeves

Post image
34 Upvotes

I’ve been hunting down long sleeve shrugs/boleros to layer onto my outfits because I love the excessive sleeve look. I just want sleeves, not a full top or dress with the sleeves built in. The only thing I can find is the crappy Amazon lace ones and this shrug from a brand I haven’t heard of before that would be perfect if not out of stock. Anyone have recommendations where to get more stuff similar to this? I already scour secondhand places regularly for them to very little success. I’ve never sewn but am willing to learn, so if there’s recommendations on what kind of patterns/terms to look for then I’d appreciate that also. Thanks in advance.

(Last 4 are my usual looks)

I’m practicing more trad goth looks for my makeup but I feel I’m having a hard time making it fit for my face. I have a pretty heart shaped face and the harsher contour seems to shorten my face more. Any advice or references that may fit my facial structure better would be highly appreciated 🖤❤️

Any old head goths from the 90s-2000s have any recommendations for brands or styles to look for when shopping? I diy but wouldn’t mind making a few eBay purchases and stuff.

Looking for more niche stuff or just things you personally remember wearing or enjoying!!! I’m okay with makeup and stuff too :)

The lipstick is kinda smudged off in the pic tho. And I don't really do Gothic looks so I'm not the best at them 😓

Looking for Recommendations Suggestions for wide [men's] boots??

1 Upvotes

Basically, I'm looking for a source of men's boots adjacent to Docs that are available in extended widths (preferably 4E). The only place I've found what I'm looking for is RebelsMarket, and it seems like their reputation is pretty sletchy at this point. Otherwise, it seems difficult to find wide boots that aren't just blatantly work boots. This style is very unkind to those of us with square feet 🤣

Asking for Advice New goth boy here, what do I do about my facial hair when I start using foundation...

Post image
39 Upvotes

I don't have the money for foundation, eyeshadow, primer, etc yet so I've just been practicing my eyeliner, lipstick, mascara, and lashes. Not the main point of the post but I'd love feedback and tips on how to improve!!

I don't want to shave off my mustache and beard but they're not thick enough to hide my skintone underneath them so I'm worried about how doing my foundation will work once i start that. Do I just act like its not there and go over it? Should I darken them up like people do with their eyebrows..? I really just don't know what to do about that.

Let me know what's the best way to go about that. I guess if it's necessary I can shave my facial hair off.

Looking for Recommendations Wide fit combat platform boots?

10 Upvotes

Hey all, I've been looking around for platform boots that will fit my feet cause I have pretty wide feet and I'm struggling to find a pair that will fit me. The closest I've found are these Torrid platform combat boots but they're completely out of stock and I have no idea how long it's gonna be before they restock. Does anyone know of any simmilar brands that have an extra wide fit? I think technically I'm a D width? Tho I don't know fully how width sizing works in shoes. My feet are 5.5 inches across at the widest part of my foot if that helps. I'm usually a size 10 or 11 in womens. It's really annoying to find any cause most brands don't even list the width of their shoes on the website if they provide dimensions at all. Any help would be super appreciated.
