]]> With the fashion weeks of New York, London, and Milan ending, we have gathered some of our favourite beauty looks that graced the runways at each Fashion Week. We have seen an array of looks on the runway and some similar themes across all the shows, including a very heavy dark feminine x gothic attire alongside some glittery looks. So, if you are wondering what our favourite looks were and want to steal some for some much-needed inspiration, stay tuned.  

The Wednesday Addams Effect

Ever since the hit Netflix show Wednesday graced our screens at the end of 2022, pop culture has gone wild for anything Wednesday related. At the fashion weeks, we saw a resemblance in the make-up looks that were styled on the catwalk to the aesthetics seen on the Netflix show. 

In New York, Rodarte styled bold blocked eyeliner, like the eyeliner that celebs such as Julia Fox have been pictured rocking in recent months. The gothic glam look is one that is clearly sticking around as it continues to gain popularity. Rodarte paired their eyeliner art with black lipstick to finish off this goth glam look. They used Nars products to create these killer looks; so we recommend using the Nars Lipstick in shade Heroine Red. This lipstick has a matte finish so we also recommend adding gloss on top to create that wet look that the model styled. To top it off, we think that the Nars High-Pigment Longwear Eyeliner would be perfect for creating those daring eyes. 

In London, it was Bora Aksu, Chet Lo and Simone Rocha that were honouring the gothic glam on their catwalk debuts. Bora Aksu’s looks looked like they had just stepped off the set of Wednesday, with their black lips and minimal eye makeup. Simone Roger had a unique twist to her looks that simulated the gothic glam aesthetic by having bows on the cheeks of her models as part of an accessory. Chet Lo incorporated the gothic glam by styling black bows and bow-like hairstyles, alongside black creative eyeliner and dark lips. These looks from London are all abbreviations of the gothic glam make-up trend that we’re all so obsessed with right now. 

The beauty of the gothic glam trend is that the base makeup is very minimal; it honours natural-looking skin and therefore you do not need full coverage products on your face to create this look. Using a good moisturiser and primer with minimal concealer and maybe some highlighter would be enough makeup needed to create the dewy skin look. 

When it comes down to styling some of the gothic glam looks, black lips and bold black eyeliner are our go-to. The Elf Cosmetics Expert Liquid Eyeliner or the Mac Brushstroke Liner would be the perfect products to use if you were thinking about going for the bold eyeliner aesthetic. The Lottie London Glitter Fix Bomb Face and Body Adhesive is an ideal product to use if you fancy copying Simone Rocha’s Face bows and need some glue to attach them.

In Milan, Etro and GCDS emphasised a softer take on the gothic glam look. They focused more on styling subtle smokey eyes or simply rocking basic black eyeliner. Out of all the looks, these ones are the most wearable for day-to-day looks. The Simpsons mini eyeshadow palette by Revolution has a lovely selection of shimmery black eyeshadows that would look perfect for a black smokey eye. The Dior Mono Couleur Couture eyeshadow in shade Black Bow is a matte black eyeshadow that will give your eyes intense colour and be perfect for a dramatic and well pigmented smokey eye look.

Shades of Shimmer 

The next theme that we noticed in New York and London Fashion Week was the shimmery starlike aesthetic that included sparkles across the eyes in a range of different styles.

In New York, Thom Browne created a masterpiece of the planets in his design which continued within the make-up and hairstyle that were created for his models. One of his models styled an updo that resembled a planet-like shape and was dyed white to look translucent by nature. 

He continued the theme of translucent white across the eyes by creating a white block shape that resembled a sort of eye mask on the model’s face. On top of the white base, the model-styled glittery Silver Stars dotted around the cheekbones and by the eyebrows. This portrayed the stars in the sky and is one of the most creative looks that we saw on the runway. Thom also dressed the model in long curly white nails to finish off this incredible look. For this look, we recommend using a combination of white eye shadow, white concealer or white face paint to help build up a pigmented base that the model. 

Using either white concealer or white face paint as a base and adding in eye shadow on top means that you will have higher coverage and a smoother look to the make-up look and won’t have to use as much eye shadow to help build up pigment. The Cosmetics Camo Concealer in a white shade is a full coverage concealer that would be perfect as a base for this look. The Depixym Cosmetic Emulsion in shade Bright White is another alternative product that you can use to help build up a pigmented white base. This product is a multi-use cream that is suitable for your eyes, lips, and cheeks. It has a lovely matte finish and is super blendable, so it is perfect for this look. Once you have a pigmented base, you can then go in with a powdery eye shadow for that finishing touch to create that smokey, dusty finish. 

The Mac eyeshadow or the Creator Revolution SFX White Base Matte Powder are two eyeshadow options that would suit this look well. For the glittering stars, we recommend using glitter eyeliner to create the stars on your face. The OPV Beauty Metal and Glitter Liner is a super pigmented glitter eyeliner that has a water base so it won’t smudge. 

Altuzarra was also present at NYC Fashion Week and styled a goddess-like vision on the runway with gold eyeliner designs across the model’s eyes. This makeup look is a different sort of shimmer compared to the other look that we saw in NYC fashion week. The one by Altuzarra is enchanting and mystical as it resembles a sort of Aphrodite aesthetic. The Kiko gold liquid eyeliner or the Dior eyeliner in shade Gold and Pearly Bronze would be perfect for this enchanting look. 

At London fashion week Conner Rives had a shimmery blue eyeshadow look that also resembled a mystical siren gaze, that was extremely flattering on the model and one that we are obsessed with. The shimmery blue levels up this look, making it dressy and seductive. Victoria Beckham’s Lid Lustre eyeshadow matches the one that Conner Rives’ model styles closely and therefore would be perfect to use.  A liquid eyeshadow would also be a good option for this look to create the pigmented and shiny aesthetic that Conner has gone for. The Sephora Collection of Colourful Special Effect Liquid eye shadow it’s a perfect product to use if you want a wet glossy look to this glittery eyeshadow style. 

Old Hollywood Glamour 

One thing about beauty and fashion is that classic looks will always be relevant. One of the most staple pieces that the beauty industry has ever come across is the iconic red lip. This look is timeless and over the years we have seen many alterations. 

In New York, Christian Siriano created one of the sexiest and most sophisticated looks that we have seen on the runways this year. His model styled a-line coat and an elegant hat that covered her upper face revealing only her pouty red lips. She looked just like old Hollywood, glamourous, sexy and alluring. She had next to nothing underneath her coat as the only pop of colour being seen were her sultry red lips. The Dior Rouge Refillable lipstick is a lovely velvety lipstick that has good pigment and is irresistibly alluring. Alternatively, the Nars Audacious lipstick is a lovely cherry red and looks fun as well as sexy. 

To achieve that perfect pout a trusted lip liner will be an asset. The NYX Professional Makeup Suede Matte Liner in the shade Spicy it’s a lovely, coloured lip liner that would accentuate your lips beautifully and be a perfect base colour for a variety of red lipsticks that you can place on top. 

In London, Roksanda Ilincic created an adaptation to the timeless red lipstick look. The lips on her model had a more burgundy base to them creating a modern spin on this timeless classic. Her lips were moodier and mature, perfect for a variety of settings that you may need to pop out a dramatic lip look. For this look, they used products from Isamaya Beauty so we recommend using the suede lip liner in shade outlaw to line your lips for this look alongside the NYX Professional Makeup Shout Loud Hydrating Satin in shade Opinionated. 

Natural and Dewy

One theme that we saw across all three shows was the natural, dewy makeup look that sees minimal-to-no base makeup and a simple lip tint which allows natural features to shine through effortlessly. The key to this look is having a good skincare routine pattern down so that your skin looks hydrated and flawless.

In New York, Michael Kors and Proenza Schouler rocked very natural makeup looks with very minimal makeup on the models. When recreating natural makeup looks, we recommend using a trusted moisturiser, hyaluronic acid as a serum, a vitamin c serum and either a lip tint or lip balm on the lips. You’re going to want a very hydrating skincare routine so that your skin looks healthy and plump. We recommend using the Glow Recipe Plum Plump Hyaluronic Cream as this two-in-one formula will give moisture to your face as well as have the same activities that a serum would encourage. Therefore, using this product will allow you to add vitamin C to your routine which will help brighten your skin’s complexion. Paula’s Choice C15 Super Booster Vitamin C serum contains 15% of vitamin C which will give your skin a brighter and younger complexion. 

Swapping your lipstick or lip gloss for a skin tint or lip balm will keep your lips looking natural but the dash of colour will make your face look alive. The Benefit Benetint Rose-Tinted Lip and Cheeks Lip Tint is that a beautiful lip tint would be ideal if you’re wanting to keep a natural chic makeup look that appears effortless.

In London and Milan, similar looks were followed with designers such as Nensi Dojka, Ahluwalia and Blumarine all rocking very natural makeup looks. Their model’s skin was well moisturised and therefore appeared shiny and, in some places, highlighted thanks to the well-equipped skincare routine. To achieve that super glossy finish that we saw in London and Milan we recommend using the Glossier Futuredew Serum Hybrid or the Bobbi Brown Extra Illuminating Balm, which is a mix of a rich moisturiser and primer.

Alternative Pops of Colour

The final set of beauty looks that we fell in love with at the various fashion weeks was a group of looks that had alternative takes on adding colour to their model’s faces. These are some of the more creative styles that we saw on the runways and ones that would be ideal for party events or festivals in the spring and summer. 

In London, Chet Lo had a pop of colour on her model faces in the middle of their eyebrows and on the sides of their eyes that resembled an explosion of colour. Pink, green and purple were spotted, and it helped make the looks appear fun and quirky on the runway. The Beauty Bay Bright Matte 42 colour palette is an amazing palette that has extremely pigmented colours in a variety of shades and would be perfect for an explosion of colour on your face like the one seen on the Chet Lo runway.

In Milan, Prada blew us away with the alternative-coloured lashes they styled in a variety of shades, which brought an added spice to the model’s makeup looks which were very natural apart from their lashes. 

When recreating this look, using coloured mascara is your best bet. Barry M does a lovely purple mascara, Revolution does a volumized blue mascara and Dior does a captivating red. Colourful lashes are a fun and unique way to dress up any makeup look and make it seem super creative. If you are not sold on the coloured mascara, but you’re still after a product that can give you the looks seen on the Prada runway, why not try coloured false lashes instead? You can get individual lashes or sets of lashes to wear with a variety of colours. You can also use individual-coloured lashes mixed in with the black lash set for that dash of colour that you desire.

]]> Wednesday Addams is being accused of more than just breaking the rules, she is also held responsible for changing our beauty trends. The new smash hit Netflix show has been a sensation and has accumulated a staggering billion hours’ worth of views. So, it’s no surprise that here in the beauty industry we’ve noticed a shift in our make-up looks and hairstyles as this show continues to reign in popularity. At the start of the wintry season, we saw the cold girl make-up aesthetic dominating the scene, but now the tide has changed. From Hailey Bieber to Charlie XCX and Jordyn Woods, everyone is cashing in on the new trendy soft grunge aesthetic.

Unless you have been living under a rock, you would know that as soon as Hailey Bieber styles a look, it becomes hot stuff swiftly after, and this new trend is no different. Hailey styled a messy updo this weekend that gave off a punk rock glam vibe, and we are so here for it. She had incorporated a messy bun that had left parts of her hair loose and brought her side bangs and front pieces of her hair down to shape her face in a flattering way. It gives off effortless messy vibes and is undeniably stylish and on-trend. The beauty of this look is it is so easy to create many of us have probably accidentally already done it before when throwing our hair up in a messy bun.

Nothing says gothic and grunge vibes quite like a red sultry lip, and Amina has pulled off one of the best red lips we’ve seen in a long time. Using a dark brown lip liner and a deep red wet lipstick, this lip combo is breathtaking and one that screams dark feminine energy. She looks so sexy styling this look as she styles this bold lip option while modelling a look from Jacquemus.

The Huda Beauty lip contour in Rich Brown would be a nice lip liner to try and recreate this look, alongside the Dior Addict Red Heart lipstick which has a glossy wet finish and is potent in colour. Equally, the Vieve Modern Matte Lipstick in the shade Muse is a show-stopping lipstick that oozes with pigment and is gorgeous on the lip. This lipstick paired with the Wondergel Long Wear Lip liner in the shade Sexy Beet is a perfect collaboration of the two shades and will provide the grunge dark feminine lips that Amina has rocked so well.  

Jenna has helped inspire the change in our beauty trends through her role in the hit show, and it is clear that the effects of her role have also influenced her own beauty aesthetic. Jenna posted on Instagram a picture of her new wolf cut which is extremely flattering to her face and fans can’t get enough of it. The actress has cut her hair short and included lots of choppy layers framing her face and a wispy front fringe.

The hair doo is very on trend and screams a Wednesday Addams aesthetic as she paired it with a dark Smokey eye. She has used heavy shimmery navy and black eyeliner and eyeshadow to create a grunge make-up look with a fine-lined flick to the eyeliner. The KIKO Instant Colour Water Eyeshadow in the shade of Dark Slate Green is a great product that you can use to help recreate this look. Equally, the Jeffree Star Eye Gloss Powder is a gorgeous dark eyeshadow that gives off that shimmery look that Jenna’s make-up look included. 

A major aspect of the grunge look is the smokey eyes, but sometimes extreme gothic smokey eyes can be quite intimidating especially if you are used to wearing quite minimal make-up. Halsey has styled a nice alternative, she wears subtle smokey eyes that still have the markings of the grunge smokey look but they aren’t as prominent and do not dominate the make-up look as heavily. She has used a grey/light black muted eyeshadow on her eyes in a sort of winged format to give the effect of a relaxed siren smokey eye. The MAC eyeshadow in Greystone is a nice muted ashy grey that would be a nice subtle eyeshadow to use if you didn’t want a full-out grunge appearance. 

The Bobbi Brown is also a nice subtle dark eyeshadow that would work well when recreating this look as its matte finish makes it blend nicely in with the eyes.  Halsey’s hair is also very on trend in her recent Instagram post which saw her styling an almost wet wavy hair look that is both messy but organised. When rocking a short cut like Halsey’s it is important that if you have curls, the curls are in good condition and are not frizzy. Therefore, it would be a good idea to invest in some styling mousse when rocking a hairstyle similar to this one, to make sure your curls shine as they should and are not an uncontrollable mess.  

Taking risks with their hair and owning a more edgy persona, Jordan woods has rocked a long striking platinum blonde hair colour that is perfect for the winter season. The eye-catching long straight platinum blonde hair is similar to the one seen in the Wednesday series that Wednesday’s ancestor Goodie styles. This hair look is very sleek and gives off ice queen energy with this frosty colouring. This is a great edgy hairstyle to have this winter for those wanting to be more daring with their hair.  

Charlie XCX has infused the two trending looks of the winter season, the grunge gothic Wednesday-inspired aesthetic and the cold girl vibe, by using heavy dark eyes with a cute rosy blush. The stunner rocked a metallic glittery eye in a feline wing shape with added black eyeliner along her waterline. This eye look gave euphoric x Wednesday Addams vibes and was one that was very flattering on the singer. The Bobbi Brown Jadestone Eyeshadow palette is a gorgeous metallic eyeshadow palette with lots of different shades that would be perfect if you were interested in recreating this look.

The Natasha Denona Mini Xenon eyeshadow palette is another gorgeous palette with amazing, pigmented colours that would suit this look very well as it includes both a silvery metallic shade and a grey/ black shade for the eyeliner to make the eye more smokey.  For that touch of blush on the cheeks that echo the cold girl make-up aesthetic, the Cheek to Chic blush in the shade Love Glow is a perfect match to the one that Charli styled on her Instagram post. It is a gorgeous two-toned pearlescent pink blush and is just the right shade to give off a subtle but cute make-up look. 

Rosalia styled a lovely bitten lip look with a velvet red lip that had a muted tone and a lighter burgundy base to it. The colour had a lovely pigment to it and makes the lips look fuller and luscious. Lisa Eldridge has launched a new lipstick called Velvet Enchantment which is a true muted rose red. This creamy lipstick has a matte finish like the one Rosalia wore, but this lipstick has a slight sheen finish, so it isn’t a flat matte look.

Maybelline also does a very muted cherry red lip in the shade Almond Hustle that is a beautiful, muted tone and gives off the look of an au natural lipstick aesthetic with the bitten lip look that Rosalia rocked so well. A muted red lip is a nice calmer example of the grunge make-up look as it is still bold with the colouring but doesn’t dominate the make-up look and therefore is more wearable on different occasions.

]]> Tim Burton’s fantastical production of the new Wednesday Series has exploded over our screens, and we cannot get enough of it. From school bullies to murder mysteries and all things gory and weird, this series, is a fresh take on the classic and unmistakable film character, Wednesday, from The Addams Family. Not only is her character one of boldness and uniqueness, but her make-up is an effortless masterpiece and one that is going viral online. Below, we have included some of our favourite remakes of Wednesday’s infamous look and products alongside tips on how to recreate this effortless wonder.  

Our first gorgeous remake of Wednesday Addams’ make-up look is a look created by make-up enthusiast and influencer Tia Shea. This influencer has created a beautifully simple look with minimal make-up usage, allowing this look’s effortless nature to shine through. The influencer has used the Jordana Ticia Nude Divinity palette to create a cool-toned brown eyeshadow and used black eyeliner on her eyes that is smudged in a ‘C’ shape. The use of the eyeliner and shadow being smudged allows depth to the eyes and makes them look effortless while also flattering. The eyeliner used is Charlotte Tilbury’s, Black Kohl Liner. Tia then uses a cheekbone contour stick to sculpt the cheekbones and adds minimal concealer coverage under her eyes to allow the hollow dark eye to look like the eyes Wednesday rocks in the movie. This look is about minimal makeup and letting natural features shine through, so a unique take that Tia incorporates is the use of faux freckles on her face which not many other influencers have included. She applied faux freckles under her eyes and across the nose by using the KVD Beauty Contour with a liner brush for application. She then finishes off the look with Charlotte Tilbury lipstick in Festival Magic.

Our next incredible make-up remake has been created by TikTok creator Giannie who has also put her own spin on the look. Giannie uses a pale base for her make-up and natural brows with lots of translucent powder across her face. She uses a highlighter along her nose line and uses a medium-dark contour on her cheeks to finish off the base. Like Tia Shea, Giannie also used faux freckles subtly on her cheeks and nose to allow the minimalist and natural effect of the makeup to shine through. For her eyes, she starts off with a pinkie base and then goes in with a dark brown eyeshadow for the eyeliner. With this look it is a good idea to bring the eyeshadow down below the eye and on the waterline to really allow that almost grunge messy look to the make-up. Then finally she finishes off with light mascara and brown and red lipstick to create a sultry pop of colour on her lips. Some good products to use for Gianne’s look would be the Fenty Ease Drop Blurring Skin tint for a light base to the makeup, and the Laura Mercier Translucent Powder is a lovely powder that can really accentuate this look for a radiant finish to the base make up. The Revolution Pro Hydra Plump Lip Gloss Awaken lip gloss is a nice faded brown lip gloss that can be used and potentially mixed with a cherry red lip gloss like the Kiko Milano Hydro lip gloss.

Our next recreation of the Wednesday Addams make-up look is one by Influencer Noor who has created one of the more glammed looks thanks to her potent red lip that makes the look pop. She uses light concealer placed around her eyes, then follows with contour along her cheekbones and jawline. She blended light eyeshadow on her under eyes allowing the look of hollow eyes to be prominent. She then applied pink liquid eyeliner on her water line to make the whites of her eyes pop and followed by light mascara and a dainty eyeliner flick at the end. Her lips are the feature piece for this look as she rocks a sexy pinkie red lip. A great product to recreate these lips would be the Maybelline Sensational Shaping Lip Liner to give the lips a defined shape followed by the Bobbi Brown Crushed lipstick in Blackberry for that amazing pop of colour.

A different twist on the Wednesday Addams make-up look is the look created by Nicki Victoria on TikTok is a look which doesn’t strictly follow the typical makeup look seen on our screens, but one that is more natural and softer glam. This look doesn’t encourage the paleness that the movie advocates for and doesn’t emphasise the dark hollowness under the eyes. Instead, this look focuses on copper-toned eyeshadow for the eyes and a faded matt brown lip. This is a more casual version of the make-up look and one that is adaptable in different scenarios such as if you were going out for the evening or hanging out with friends. The NARS cosmetic eyeshadow palette in the shade copper would be ideal for this look along with the Bourjois Rouge Editon Velvet Liquid lipstick in Chocolate Corset Brown.

*again, not a beauty guru*💀 #wednesdaymakeup #makeuptutorial #wednesday

♬ Chopin Nocturne No. 2 Piano Mono – moshimo sound design

Lastly, our final look that was just too good to miss is a look by TikToker Alice who pays more attention to the eyes of the Wednesday Addams look that other influencers have. Alice uses a brown, pinkie and reddish eyeshadow alongside a light brown eyeshadow along the waterline and upper eyelid of the eye. This look makes the eyes appear reddish with a defined eyeliner that is a little smudged below the eye. The Fiery Matte colour pallet from Beauty Bay would be perfect for creating this look as there is more colour and less darkness around the eyes in this recreation. This version of the make-up look is more controlled and less about copying the exact format that has been used on the actress in the movie but rather putting your own spin on the look. Alice completes the look with a matted red lipstick that works perfectly with the deep reddish-brown eyes that she has styled so effortlessly. It is a gorgeous recreation and one that is wearable on many occasions.

]]> The new hit show on Netflix is not only taking over our tv screens, but our wardrobes too. The sensation, Wednesday, which has surpassed Stranger Things 4 as the most watched English language series within one week of release, is trending across multiple industries. Along with entertainment, the fashion world is beginning to see the effects of the Tim Burton series.

In the show, fashion is put to the foreground as Wednesday rejects the standardised boarding school uniform and continues to wear her signature colour- black. AW 22 and SS 23 runways have given us a sneak peak of what Wednesday’s fashion choices could mean for the upcoming fashion landscape. From runway to red carpet, we are going to break down the trends within the re-emerging gothic takeover.

Black Lace

If you commonly dip in and out of gothic styles you will know black lace is a major indication of the subculture. Versace has taken this trend very seriously for their SS 23 collection. Featuring a majority of full black fits, the collection embraces black lace detailing on waistbands, sleeves and stockings.

Nensi Dojaka are including black lace within their RTW SS 23 and we think they embody the gothic trend very elegantly as their classic cut-out styled gowns lend themselves to this trend effortlessly.

Dilara Findikoglu are also incorporating black lace within their SS 23 collection and adopting the layering technique. Just like Wednesday at school, we have herself to thank for the black lace trend entering our Spring fashion as this would usually be considered an unusual and unconventional pairing. However, we are going to fully embrace the Addam’s inspired fashion coming our way.

Ruffles and Sheer

We are looking straight to Wednesday for ruffles and black sheer inspiration, which she brings to the mainstage at her prom night. These styles are synonymous with gothic fashion and we are so glad costume designer, Colleen Atwood, incorporated the styles into the show. The prom dress features Wednesday’s iconic collar neckline and a dramatic black, tulle ruffled skirt which encompasses the character. Most of the dress is sheer which strengthens its goth style roots.

Elie Saab’s AW 22/23 collection showcases gowns with rows of miniature ruffles as well as lace detailing. The designer has also featured collars, neck-ties and chokers within the collection which are signature styles of Wednesday.

Sheer continues to dominate red carpet looks and are heavily featured in collections such as Nensi Dojaka SS 23 and Dilara Findikoglu SS 23.

Bridal Veil

The Wednesday actress herself, Jenna Ortega, wore a stunning Versace gothic bridal number to the premier of the show. Versace’s SS 23 collection is embracing the drop-dead-gorgeous wedding look with multiple veiled outfits. Veils have also been spotted on celebrities such as Mia Goth (rather fitting name), who gave us a black laced widow look at the premier of Pearl.

Morticia

The fashion of Morticia Addams is notably iconic and we could simply not miss mentioning her influence on fashion. She has definitely not been overlooked when it comes to designers such as Elie Saab as half the collection looks as if it is straight out of Morticia’s wardrobe. The styles are dark and elegant, devilish and glamorous.

SS 23 will see Morticia’s iconic silhouette influencing gowns as has so far has begun this season. Dark velvets, mermaid silhouettes and trains will be pushed to the forefront of fashion. Harris Reed’s exaggerated silhouettes are a key trend for Addam’s inspired fashion. Flared, bell and trumpet sleeves will trickle down into mainstream fashion as a nod to her signature look.

Corsetry

Corsetry works amazingly to create the romantic goth ensemble. Inspired by the era of romance, 1800-1850, the aesthetic is an intoxicatingly stylish branch of the subculture. Commonly associated with creating sex appeal, the aesthetic screams Morticia Addams as she places emphasis on beauty and glamour. Silhouettes were an important aspect of fashion within the romantic era which emphasized bust and tight bodice fits, aka, may we present the corset.

Image Credit: Filippo Fior

Dilara Findikoglu is all over the gothic corset trend. Trending in other areas of fashion already, the corset is reimagined in dark and romantic forms. The corsets making their way into SS 23 fashion are strong pieces of construction. Predominantly dark coloured and created in strong fabrics such as denim or romanticized in satins and silks. Paloma Elsesser attended the Fashion Awards 2022 in a gorgeous romantic goth inspired Dilara Findikoglu corsetted gown.

I’m sure you have noticed by now how many of these trends intertwine with each other to create the modern goth aesthetic. Starting off with predominantly blacks and dark colours, materials of tulle, lace and velvet, and Morticia Addam inspired silhouettes are all center stage for the upcoming goth trend.
