Goth is a music-based alternative subculture that began in the late 80s in the United Kingdom. While the music is what defines goth in the real world, this tag refers to the fashion style.
Goth fashion focuses on the dark and mysterious, often heavily utilizing black. There are many variations of goth fashion. It is often confused for other alternative styles such as punk and emo. Common elements of goth fashion include fishnet and lace, long gloves, bdsm imagery, religious iconography, colors such as red and purple, roses, dark makeup, etc.
