Gothic fashion fascinates me, and the goth aesthetic deserves it, from mall goth to whimsigoth.

Whether you're a mall goth, Victorian goth, whimsigoth, or just an admirer of the gothic fashion and aesthetic, everyone loves the dark and spooky this time of year for Halloween! But how did the gothic aesthetic become what it is? How did "goth" go from the name of Germanic tribes like the Visigoths and Ostrogoths, to a modern day subculture defined by dark music, black clothes, and vampy makeup. The answer takes us on a journey from the history of the Roman Empire through architecture, literature, the golden age of cinema, and music-- with plenty of dress history along the way. The word "goth" came into being as the Latin translation of the name of a Germanic tribe in the first century CE, which is a pretty big difference from the gothic aesthetic! After the tribe was split into the Visigoths and Ostrogoths a few hundred years later, this historical gothic fashion was nothing like the dark alt fashion we know! Ostrogothic fashion was bright and colorful, combining colors like scarlet red and leek-green in the same garments! And Visigothic fashion seems to have been just as colorful, drawn in a variety of bright shades in illuminated manuscripts. How we got from the Visigoths and Ostrogoths to the modern goth aesthetic starts with architecture. The dramatic building style of the High and Late Medieval period was named "gothic" by later Renaissance artists. These artists idealized the Classical style of Rome, and since the Goths had sacked Rome, they called the older Middle Ages architecture "gothic" as an insult. But the medieval gothic aesthetic of building held peoples' imaginations, becoming a defining feature of gothic literature in the 18th and 19th century. Spooky old castles and other Gothic buildings helped give the genre its air of hauntedness and fear and darkness. Gothic literature is how the words "goth" and "gothic" found their way into the modern subculture! Now associated with the horror genre, silent films began retelling existing Gothic fiction and creating new works in the gothic style, with actresses like Theda Bara and Musidora developing the vamp style that became so popular in 1920s makeup. Gothic cinema remained popular, keeping the dark aesthetic in mind until 1967 when it was first applied to the new genre of music called Gothic Rock! The Doors were the first to be described this way, even though their clothes were decidedly different from the fashion we'd come to call goth. However, other gothic rock musicians in later years did wear much more dramatic stage outfits for performances, and so the goth subculture was born, forever changing the world of alt fashion. Today, gothic fashion exists in a continual dialogue with other aesthetics. It combines with mainstream style to create corporate goth and dark academia. It's melded with other alt fashions too : with lolita style to create gothic lolita, or blending with cottagecore and fantasy aesthetics to become whimsigoth. And in its own right, goth fashion has countless sub-styles, from mall goth to Victorian gothic and so many more. Whether you prefer alt fashion gothic or Visigothic fashion, there's no denying that the gothic style hasn't survived nearly two millennia for nothing. Happy Halloween, my darling goths!
