My style is constantly changing and evolving, and I have had many many clothing styles over the years. While still thinking of myself as a Gothy type person, I am definitely more of a Faery or Hippie these days. Of course, these things are not all pervasive, while I love all things faery and listening to Loreena McKennit, I still love 80s Goth music and Victorian Gothic.
Of course, I don't think that a type or stereotype can ever really explain all the layers that go into making a person, but I have always loved the cute little infographics that Trellia makes.

I have definitely been more into Dark Mori style this year.
Romantigoth was the influence that originally inspired me, over 10 years ago.
Victoriana has been a huge influence on me since childhood watching BBC miniseries based on Dickens books, but I am not as drawn to that style currently.
See all the "Goth Types" here. Do you have a "Goth Type" that describes you?

What cute little pictures! Of what I've seen of you, you are clearly a Faerie Goth, with a dash of Victorian. ;)
ReplyDeleteI can definetly see a little of me in that "Dark Mori" type.
These are so cute, and I like the star sign series of goths on the site.
ReplyDeleteI am definately no 1 (Trad Goth) with a hugh sprinkling of 33 (casual goth - to the point where I actually have the Joy Division tee and go to goth gigs in black jeans...1), and a little bit of vampire goth for good measure when the mood takes me :)
Mind, I probably started out as mopey goth...!
I have never really been goth but I'm definitely Dark Mori :)
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize how goth in style I was until the last few months. I do not listen to goth music, but definitely am influenced by the fashion. I love the Dark Mori style and am so influenced by it!
ReplyDeleteI really like how cute they are, but can never adapt to only one style. I wear whatever I like and do not fit into these drawers...
ReplyDeleteLove the pictorial definitions! Those are going to be popular as Halloween moves in to devour everything!
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute!
ReplyDeleteI'm a hippie, goth, 80's girl ;o)
Those are funny and cute! I think it was wise of the maker to point out these are (stereo)types, not categories one must fit. ^_^
ReplyDeleteOooh, new stereotypes! I didn't know them from 24 up, but they are lovely!
ReplyDeleteThe ones that apply for me the most are definitely 25 (Dark Mori), with a bit of 28 (NuGoth) mixed with punk thrown in for good measure. 21 (SteamGoth), 22 (FaerieGoth), 13 (Victorian) and 14 (Medieval) are things I love as well but aren't as prevalent in my everyday appearance. I'd love a bit more Carnival Goth in my wardrobe, though. ^^
Love these, Laura! While many of these styles have influenced me over the years, these days I fit more into the Gothabilly category. :)
ReplyDeleteOh I am definitely more the Romantic Goth type, in regard to style and music. Although now, however, since I live in a tropical climate, wearing anything even remotely resembles this look is out of the question, save for a few days a year. :( But I can and so, still enjoy the music!!
