| | Gothic fashion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The stereotypical gothic outfit, sometimes referred to jokingly as the "mopey" or "romantic" look, is limited only by what the wearer thinks he or she can pull off, and can (and frequently does) include elaborate gowns and corsets, veils, teased hair, eyeliner, black fingernails, fishnets, and styles borrowed from the Elizabethans and Victorians. | | | One famous female role model is Theda Bara, the 1920s femme fatale known for her dark eyeshadow, curves and smoldering onscreen presence. | | | In his book Goth: Identity, Style and Subculture (Berg Publishers Ltd., Oxford, 2002), Paul Hodkinson talks about goths using their fashion choices to demonstrate commitment to the subculture. |

| | Gothic - definition of Gothic by the Free Online Dictionary, Thesaurus and Encyclopedia. |
| | Of or relating to painting, sculpture, or other art forms prevalent in northern Europe from the 12th through the 15th century. | | | A novel in a style emphasizing the grotesque, mysterious, and desolate. | | | Horace Walpole applied the word Gothic to his novel The Castle of Otranto, a Gothic Story (1765) in the sense "medieval, not classical." From this novel filled with scenes of terror and gloom in a medieval setting descended a literary genre still popular today; from its subtitle descended the name for it. |
