Ya looks like 90's madonna but Nina Hagen was the original and did it far better thn Madonna - a true original w/thin the goth culture. So, yes that look def deserves to be part of this video.

As I understand that Steampunk came from Cyberpunk. cybergoth was the mixing of Goth styles and Cyberpunk styles. Point is that Steampunk didn't originate from Goth at all and even though a lot of clothing features may cross over (top hats, big ruffle skirts etc) they are two very separate and distinct styles with no shared origin.

Pastel goth has been around for awhile (a little longer than the 2010s), at least, in San Francisco, since the mid or late 90s. Except then we called it "perkigoth" or "candy goth." Some people in the goth community would even overlap styles. I had a friend who was a deathrocker, but wore quite a bit of pink with pastel-colored hair--much like the pastel goth in the video. It's funny. We used to mock the uniformity-code of goth, too. Instead, we valued creativity and uniqueness over conformity.

At six, she has no qualms about by telling teen-agers in short-shorts and little tank tops that they don't look classy.... She already wears black & pink wigs, Gothic style dresses and has developed the "homeless princess" look that most six year olds have to make it her own.

I love Black Friday because she gives fair reviews. I get really annoyed when people are too judgmental or harsh on styles just because they aren't their own style. I personally don't think pastel or Nu goth will burn out though. I mean maybe Nu goth will change names but pastel goth has become it's own thing. And, in the end, all styles of goth started as a trend. Regardless, I think she made a lot of good points.

I like to think now that all the satanic ritual panic from the 90s has died down, everyone is able to finally wear it again freely. You don't have to worry about getting asked to leave places anymore based on how much black you are wearing. Nu Goth is pretty comfy and low maintenance compared to Lolita or Romantic. I'm looking forward to trying a pastel lolita look for the first time. I figure one outfit that isn't black won't be the end of anything so I want to wear white to a concert.

I think goth is a lot like punk where it's just your own style whatever you make it to be. People are always arguing over what "real punk" or "real goth" is and I've been off and on since the 80s but always loving the music. There's just something poetic about the flat voice in the background and instruments that bring me back every time. Having a corporate job I had to dress like a normal person for years and now I'm so glad that is over with.

Of course everyone should wear whatever they want and mix styles. But, they shouldn't call their fashion a certain thing when it isn't what they call it at all. For example sure, wear the "deathrock" look from the video, but don't call it deathrock, call it a Nina Hagen inspired look, you know ?

I am a goth on days I feel like it. I like different cultures different stuff, like a variety of music, fashion, movies, and dances. I believe differences should bring people together, not separate them. Here in America, differences separates them even though it's supposed to be "the land of the free." I want to travel the world someday. Unless most of other Americans, I want to learn about different people. I feel boxed in to what I know just about where I live.

It definitely gets a lot of hate for being a "tumblr" thing. I personally think it's a really cool style, a nice balance of cute and creepy. The thing that annoys me with the hate it gets, is that most everyone will agree that goth is a lot more than just how someone dresses. It's a lifestyle. Music, books, interests, etc. are all aspects of being goth, so why is it that if someone has all the same interests and such as a more traditional goth, but just prefers to dress in a different way, they're automatically "not goth." I get that yes there are people who take on the pastel goth style without knowing the history of the gothic subculture and having other interests, but I'm sure you could find people in any goth style like that. I agree with the others, there's too much hate against goths (and other various subcultures) to hate on each other so much. Everyone is just trying to express themselves. Let's encourage and support each other, not tear each other down for "not being ____ enough."

We very ancient Goths remember the days when Goths were swashbucklers and pirates and women wore flamboyant capes and scarves and the clothes were rich jewel tones, velvet, leather, lace. The true Goth days. We were called Gothic because our aesthetics were to fashion what Notre Dame and other grand gothic cathedrals are are to architecture...This apparently has died and been forgotten. At least according to "40 years of goth style" (which has not earned the right to be in upper case)....Steam Punk is more closely related to the roots of "Gothic" than any other mutation that has existed.

As a Lolita, it's so painful to see. That is nothing like Lolita. The dress didn't have any details, what's with the petticoat? You shouldn't show it and it shouldn't be another colour.

I was teenager in the 80s and I was new romantic when I was 14 -15 years old , but in that moment being new romantic was a very contemporary thing, I was born in 1971 so I lived every form of this subculture

For pinup, I think they were trying to do dita von teese(maybe trying to get to gothabilly), but took a few wrong turns getting there, and decided last minute to play it safe and do a simple pinup look with a hint of "Spooky". lol

you have such an intelligent point of view that you always articulate so clearly. its part of the reason i enjoy watching your videos so much despite not being a part of the goth culture.

I grew up in the Hollywood goth scene, and they totally missed the boat on the most of these. I'm glad you talked about the different "branches." Ones I would have liked to have seen: 1. Victorian Goth - As the name suggests, the Victorian-inspired goth look. We didn't have a lot of them in SoCal. 2. Velvet Goth - This was bigger in Orange County in the richer areas, and was all about crushed velvet and saturated jewel tones. 3. PVC Goth (huge in Hollywood in the 90s). These were the ones we call Cybergoths. 4. Death Rock - I don't know about anyone else, but the Death Rocker I am familiar with was just punk fashion in black with a lot of ripped jeans and (on occasion) black flannel, combat boots, and black fatigues (sometimes the black and white camouglage pants). Unlike some videos, most of us a) didn't have Robert Smith hair, and b) most of us went with this look because we were too broke for the rest. 5. Lolita Goth is something new to me; we just called them Baby Goths. Or, more insultingly, Goth-In-A-Box because they shopped at Hot Topic. 6. Gothabilly should be in this video, but they bungled it. 7. Nu-Goth is actually kind of cool in its look, but strikes me as too Hot Topic and therefore falls into what I consider Baby Goth. 8. What they called Cyber Goth we simply referred to as Club Kids. The ones that showed up at Helter Skelter and Perversion could barely move because they had monstrous elevator platform boots. 9. Corporate Goth would have been cool to see, especially since I'm now (whimper) old and professional, and going gray, more in this category. 10. Lingerie Goth - Always my favorite for the ladies, and as the name implies was largely lingerie under punk rockish/Madonna-esque rags. 11. Vampire Goths - We just referred to the ladies in this category as Morticias. 12. Industrial Goths - Rivethead fashion, gothic makeup. 13. Emo - though we made fun of them and considered them on the fringe of the scene (even more than the Baby Goths), they were just grunge kids who dyed everything black with Rit dye. Those were the big ones I saw the most of, until I moved around the country. Edwardian Goths seemed to be more of an East Coast thing, and Victorian Goths more of a Southern thing.

I'm not even goth but I LOVE watching your videos. Honestly I'm super jealous of people who are completely happy being themselves. I think goth style is so fascinating and I love learning more about it!

Never considered PUNK as GOTH. That DEATH ROCK was totally wrong!! CYBER is now called SCENE depending on where you live. STEAMPUNK has always been its own thing. PIN UP has absolutely nothing to do with GOTH!!! I've always found PASTEL GOTH as soft GOTH, for those who don't what to truly commit. You are so right about all the things they've missed!

I don't think I'd consider bubble goth to be popular. It got coined by Kerli, then after that I've never seen anyone dress like that. As for Victorian goth: I think it's very similar to romantic goth, which is why it's not in the video. Both are similar in style, and formed around the same era, so it would be repetitive to put both in.

The blonde/platnum death rock look was a thing, believe it or not. Very early 80's. They really got the 2 toned shades of it really well. I was impressed. Neon colors, too. At that time people weren't used to those bright colors. They showed up well under black lights in the clubs. They were usually worn with torn black clothing held together with safety pins. Safety pins for earrings were also great accessories.

I wish we could see a video on every single sub you just mentioned. ❤

The lolita community hated this! It looked like a cheesy Halloween costume, tried to do a mana -ish style and fell on their faces. I was very disappointed with the lolita look but pretty much anyone whose outside of the community and does no research ends up with something like this.

There is crossover and influence from western goth, but gothic/EGL is its own thing under the Lolita fashion umbrella and was around at least before goth itself was established. Also did some poking about and there's a few explanations about some of the outfits on the directors fb. But goddess that daily mail article is a bit :///// "Lolita goth". lol ok

I am in my 50s now and grew up with 80s goth, a lot of clubs and bars in the UK that goths frequently attended also had punks, metal heads and psychobillies, all kind of smushed in together, maybe that's where some of the crossovers and misconceptions come from, lots of goths like me had friends who listened to the cramps, and spear of destiny which were psychoBilly bands, I quite liked some of it myself and still do, I think 'cause we all hung out together and shopped for a lot of our clothes and record etc in the same place, elder goths accept these other groups as part of the same scene. Maybe the person who made the vid is older like me, they do seem to have a better understanding of the vintage side of the culture, than the modern distinctions.
