Poll: Goth Clothing

It's fine when you're young, but it's definately something you're supposed to grow out of.

I have to disagree with you. A person's style is their style. Just because someone's own style isn't the accepted norm and is commonly bashed in the media doesn't make it childish and something to 'grow out of'.

Quite true.

I think gothic clothes requires subtlety to look good. Some people can pull it off other people just look stupid. Rule of thumb: stay away from baggy.

I've yet to see someone look remotely attractive and call themselves "Goth" so I'm gonna go with a big 'NO'.

I think it looks ridiculous and pretentious.

I was going to type several paragraphs on this, but I think this post sums up what I was going to say quite nicely. It's fine in high school, but once you get a few years of college under your belt it's time to show your identity and individuality through your actions, not your clothes.

When I see an older adult wearing what you might call "goth" clothes, I tend to think of them as just being childish. Sure it's appropriate in some situations, but when you're just out and about it just makes you look like you're trying to hold onto being an adolescent.

I've got a friend that wears Goth clothing, but doesn't take it to an extreme. As long as it's kept at a reasonable level, I think it looks fine, even sort of nice.

I think it can look pretty good. Of course someone can pull it off wrong, but then of course, the same could be said for any "fashion style".

Plus, I find that Goth girls can be incrediably hot.
