The best goth fashion brands for 2021: stylish, affordable, and suitable for all budgets & tastes!
I like wearing goth clothes, especially when they have a hint of Alternative, punk, or emo style. Finding authentic goth Clothing has never been easy. I spent a lot of time and money building my gothic wardrobe.
In this article, I will introduce you to 21 of the best gothic clothing brands that I trust. These goth clothing brands can be purchased online or at local boutiques and stores.

You can wear them with any gothic item you have in your wardrobe. These goth brands are great for shirts with Deathrock bands, horror themes, torn shirts, hosiery, and fishnets. These goth brands are also highly recommended for their black gothic styles that match perfectly with pale skin tones, powder makeup, and darkly colored eye makeup.
These top 21 brands offer everything from gothic Clothing to footwear, handbags, and jewelry. Let’s get started…
1. Trip to NYC
Tripp NYC, founded in the early 80s in New York City’s East Village by designer Daang Goodman, is a staple of streetwear. The brand was hailed as the best goth fashion store in 2021. Its pieces also form the foundation of a dark street counter-culture that takes streetwear fashion.
Daang’s innovative fabrics and original designs are inspired by the creativity and music of the downtown arts scene. They have become a way of expression for rebellious teens, rock stars, and rap legends.
Tripp NYC continues to evolve and lead the way with an avant-garde, original design that pursues the perfect fit of Daang’s signature Bondage Pants, unique wash techniques, and hand-studding.
The brand also keeps up with the latest trends on TikTok, Instagram, and other social media platforms such as e-girl.
2. Void Clothing
Void Clothing, located in Nottingham, UK, is not so much a brand of gothic Clothing as a shop dedicated to the gothic style. Void Clothing offers everything goth-related in one place. You can find here alternative brands like Poizen and Darkside.
This online store also has a wide range of gothic accessories, including Clothing for women and children, as well as rare footwear. Void Clothing has a wide selection of witchy incense, tarots, and runestones at affordable prices.
3. Disturbia Clothing
Clothing brands in the UK called Disturbia create collections with an alternative graphic story and a rebellious spirit. Disturbia is a reaction to the conventional. It’s a combination of the words suburbia and disturbs.
Disturbia Clothing, according to its founders, is meant to reach out to the “other.” The love of grunge, goth, punk, and other styles, combined with an affinity for existentialist thinking and alienation, is what inspires the brand.
4. Fox Blood
FoxBlood, a modern noir online clothing boutique that is run out of the heart of downtown Los Angeles by Lindsay Hearts (former red carpet stylist and stagewear designer), was created in 2017. The brand offers a ready-to-wear line that is minimalistic, high-quality, and vegan.

Arielle designs and prints all of her Clothing herself, ensuring that The Pretty Cult never loses sight of its community.
The mission of the Pretty Cult is to continue pushing the boundaries for what a clothing brand can be while blurring the line between rock n’ roll and fashion.
6. Demonia
Demonia, the leading goth clothing retailer in the world today, has a wide range of shoes, from the unusual to the genuinely gothic. Demonia is one of the most popular punk clothing brands. They sell mid-priced shoes that are anything but boring.
Think platform combat boot, gothic Mary Janes, and an assortment of Creepers. Demonia is also one of the only gothic clothing brands that offer free shipping worldwide.
Demonia shoes may not be as well-known as New Rock, a goth clothing company that is a leader in the industry. However, they are of similar style and quality without the pricey tag.
Demonia offers both male and feminine goth shoes. The female shoes, however, are the best, featuring metal heels with a stylized look and an aggressive yet feminine style.
7. Punk Rave
Punk Rave Ruier Clothing Co Ltd was the original ‘Punk, Gothic, & Lolita,’ an Asian Gothic clothing brand that is already well-known in China. Punk Rave, a goth clothing company founded in 2006, has a dedicated production and supply chain, as well as a design team.
Punk Rave is a brand that offers stunning goth-style Clothing for both women and men. The core pieces of the brand include tee shirts, shirts, dresses, skirts, jackets, pants, and sweaters. They also have boots, bags, and a variety of leather accessories.
It’s as if you don’t need to say a word. The clothes are enough to convey your rebellious and strong personality. Punk Rave clothing is often combined with my other emo-inspired cuts to create a unique personality and gothic style.
8. Rogue Wolf
This alternative brand specializes in ‘witching gear’: Apparel, footwear, accessories, and even homeware. Rogue Wolf is the best place to find out who’s the “baddest” witch among them all.
This goth clothing brand specializes in Clothing and jewelry with occult influences. The clothing theme of the brand also resonates well with Dark Academia, a new aesthetic that has emerged from TikTok & Tumblr.
9. Black Mast
Black Mast offers affordable gothic Clothing for every budget. The emo clothing company based in San Francisco (and LA) caters to people who want to embrace demons everywhere. Black Mast’s Tropigoth line includes gothic swim trunks and bikinis.
Shops on Etsy also offer LGBTQ Clothing for Pride Month and goth holiday sweaters. They ship worldwide. The rare merchandise celebrates life’s finest: drag queens and ghosts. Witches are also included.
Black Mast is also a mainstay of support for the San Francisco drag scene. The LGBT community influences his compositions. According to the story, Black Mast was summoned in the winter of 2013 from the depths of the Pacific Ocean off the coasts of San Francisco.
The hulls of the ghost ship are filled with treasures that have been haunted (t-shirts and art prints). Marie and Brandon, the co-captains of The Black Mast, decided to give away their cursed treasures.
Since then, the brand has offered its customers goth blessings that are inspired by nightlife, macabre and spooky themes, drag queens, and buccaneers.
10. Banned Alternative
Banned Alternative, a UK clothing brand, specializes in alternative and gothic Apparel. It is known for its rock’n roll-infused designs and pin-up appeal. Banned was founded in 1990 at the legendary Camden Lock stalls in London. It is an iconic gothic clothing brand that has been in high demand in recent years.
Banned Apparel is one of my favorite gothic clothing shops, mainly because they have unique fashion items and offer super low prices. Banned Apparel is a mix of rockabilly, gothic, and vintage styles that will take you from the past into the future.
Rockabilly has been the foundation of classical music since the 1950s. Therefore, it is no surprise that Banned, with its stylish and unique Clothing inspired by rock and roll, is now an instantly recognizable brand.
11. Jawbreaker
Jawbreaker is a brand that you should be careful about spending money on. Shop this goth Clothing online or in select boutiques worldwide. We are based in East London, but our hearts remain in Camden Town.

From Victorian Gothic, Punk, and Nu-Rave, the brand’s latest collection is sure to satisfy your alternative style.
12. Spiral Direct
Spiral Direct, a UK-based company, can be described in one word: metal. Spiral Direct, however, is so into the metal side of goth that I wouldn’t be surprised if they offered their extra benefits to staff for all the headbanging that they must have been forced to do while working in such an office.
The Clothing is dark and edgy, and the brand has a range for both women and men. However, the women’s section shows a softer side with a hippie or pagan feel, along with all the metal.
Spiral, founded in the 1990s, uses only 100% cotton and skin-friendly colors in its most popular gothic Clothing. Spiral Direct also has a wonderful children’s section.
For over 30 years, this goth clothing company has offered dark, cutting-edge designs to the alternative fashion market.
13. Dr. Faust
Dr. Faust’s most badass rockabilly and gothic designs are “Submit Your Soul.” Dr. Faust, a Glasgow-based designer, is responsible for some of the most amazing gothic designs. He draws inspiration from Glasgow’s vibrant alternative scene.

Burleska, primarily a wholesaler supplying retailers and fashion makers of alternative Clothing since 2006, is a corset maker. Burleska, out of all the online clothing stores, is my favorite goth store for beautiful, tragic clothes.
Customers can now order corsets, goth-style Clothing, and other items online or visit our Camden Stables Market boutique in London.
Burleska offers customers high-quality corsets, alternative Clothing, and other products at affordable prices. While the brand’s products, such as corsets and skirts, are made in Nepal, the design work is carried out in London by experienced tailors.
15. Queen of Darkness
Queen of Darkness, a German designer of gothic Clothing, is currently one of the most popular. The brand stocks a wide range of emo Clothing, including dresses, cardigans, and trousers for women and men.
The Queen of Darkness website has four different categories of styles: Gothic Women and Gothic Men; Gothic Plus Sizes; and Gothic Accessories. The Clothing of the Queen of Darkness is described as clean and understated yet bold and impactful for men.
Women can also wear the same look but with a little extra shine, a touch of glamour, and, if you want sexy gothic fashion. Imagine net, lace, subtle makeup, and other bold elements they sell online.
Queen is a combination of high-quality fabrics and daring designs that are perfect for the Gothic Metal and Rockabilly scenes. The mesh and sheer fabrics are paired with safety pins and metallic rings, straps, and vintage skull prints.
Don’t be confused by the name of the brand. Goth men can also find amazing pants, kilts, and shirts, as well as coats and jackets.
16. New Rock
New Rock is the most popular goth brand today for leather clothing, boots, and shoes. You have probably never seen shoes quite like these because nobody makes them as well as New Rock.
New Rock, a Spanish company founded in 1980, creates footwear made from real leather. New Rock’s range includes everything from motorbike boots to creepers. These guys are experts in shoemaking, which is why their quality is so high.
One person said, “There are shoe manufacturers and then there is New Rock.”

You can be sure that these guys are proud of the quality of their Clothing, as most of it is made out of 100 percent cotton. Their gothic Clothing and alternative designs with tunics and tribals are very appealing.

The label is known for its unsurpassed design and quality. It has gained popularity amongst retailers and free-thinkers around the world. Beyond gothic Clothing, Killstar represents a dark and edgy culture cult that is full of unconventional thinking.
20. Lip Service
Lip Service has nothing to do with the TV series. It is a brand that is punk-rock-based but with a little gothic-inspired Clothing. Drew Bernstein was a Hollywood skater-punk with a vision who founded Lip Service in 1985.
Lip Service has a wide range of garments that are pure ‘hotness in thread’ (or leather la, tex, or PVC). Drew’s parents’ garage was where the “dagger” legging was created. Lip Service now offers a wide range of alternative Clothing.
Lip Service is a great brand because it recognizes the importance of having a sustainable planet. This goth clothing line, although not 100% sustainable, strives to produce locally whenever possible and make as little waste as possible.
21. Cyberdog
Cyberdog, one of the oldest clothing companies in London, is hailed as the Mecca for all things emo, cybergoth, goth, ravers, and everything else. Cyber Dog clothing is a must-have for anyone who loves neon lights, stroboscopic lights, and endless parties.
Cyberdog is so unique and unmatched that people can tell the brand as soon as they wear it. According to the story, Chi Chi the Space Chihuahua invented the brand after he crashed-landed on Earth towards the end of the 20th century. Chi Chi thought that Earth’s people deserved better Clothing than what was available.
The result was a mix of futuristic colors and funky techno colors that inspired clubbers as well as space cadets!
Cyberdog is now a brand that has a more urban and underground feel, as one would expect from a business with roots firmly planted in London’s hippest area, Camden Town.
The Cyberdog Mothership store (or flagship) is a mass of style, humanity, and a shopping experience that’s unique. Cyberdog was also created with the Internet in mind. Its online presence is just as innovative as its physical stores.
The conclusion of the article is:
I’m so glad to see emo Clothing, punk clothing, alternative Clothing, and gothic fashions are all in demand again. These gothic clothing brands encourage everyone to be themselves, to dress as they please, and to have the freedom to love and live whomever they choose.
