A “design community” where customers submit sketches, vote on which ones get manufactured, and buy them when they come into existence. And it’s not just t-shirts: they do mermaid gowns, 50’s swing dresses, bustle skirts, trenchcoats, corset-laced jeans, flared 70’s jumpsuits, lots of body-hugging stuff with liberal splashes of retro and Victorian goth. A lot of it comes in plus sizes, too – and if it doesn’t, speaking up is welcome.

This catalog approaches goth strictly from a femme fatale point of view. The tight, wiggly silhouettes are all dark, dark, dark, the skirts high-waisted and the necklines curving to show off the decolletage. The only jewels here are brooches – black widow spiders, covered in lace and rhinestones.
A catalog that gets right to the gothic point, eschewing the neutrals in favor of mesh, leopard print, fishnet, cut-outs, tie dye, the occasional paisley, and good old solid black. Versatile for layering and snazzing up a plain outfit by sheathing the limbs in a wild pattern, through tops long and shortsleeved, stockings, and fingerless gloves.
Fripperies combining Victorian propriety with burlesque tease, resulting in decadent cancan accessorization. Lots of headpieces in fascinator clips, long black veils, and flowery little hats trimmed with netted veils and trailing ribbons. Neckwear is also abundant in ruffled lace chokers and vampire-aristocrat ascots, and it’s a good place if you like your stuff studded with cameos.
A collection of sharp little bags fashioned from recycled truck tires. Varying expanses of black rubber are punctuated with rivets and clips, from subtly silvered purses to some very goth-industrial shoulder bags. Other traditionally-leather items given a vegan makeover include wallets, belts, and dog collars.
A catalog full of skulls, brass knuckles, and Brooklyn pride. The tees/longsleevers/hoodies are stark compositions of black and red, remixing antiheros or morbid coats of arms, while crows flap about on yoga pants and tote bags. Rockabilly rosaries not only mix glittering glass beads with shiny little guns, but thoughtfully offer the option of dual lengths and interchangeable pendants in case the day is shaping up to be more machine gun than cross of thorns. And this is the place if you’ve ever wanted to scream HELL YEAH from your fingers.
Gothic wardrobing that covers classic swirling drama in capes and ballroom skirts and dress coats, retroesque wiggle silhouettes that make for vampiric little black dresses (one of which sports built-in gauntlets), and hardware-trimmed tees for those who just wanna rock. Muscle shirts for the menfolk, too.
