31 Goth-Inspired Men’s Looks

Goth Look for Guys Become the New Staple in the Industry

— March 31, 2013 — Fashion
Black, leather and lace are the key ingredients used in producing a look that can only best be described as Gothic-chic. In the troubled times of adolescent youth, it was common to come across teenagers strapped in all-black ensembles -- the look gets a unique twist as it's adapted by younger males.

Being overly drenched in black is not often seen in male editorials, but with the ever-changing world of fashion, the color of gloom and doom and has become an unprecedented staple in the guy world. From nomadic-feathered head gear spreads to Nosferatu-themed ensembles, these Goth-inspired looks bring about a new sense of uncertainty that’s always been welcomed in the troubled and odd world of fashion.
