/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

I've always loved siriusc's take on gothic, it's not full on but I really think it captures that melancholic, reflective Victorian type atmosphere. Whilst some of the looks could happily sit in the 'classic' category as well, I feel they are still very much gothic in mood.

Pic related contains an image of Queen Victoria's five daughters Alice, Helena, Beatrice, Victoria and Louise all wearing mourning attire beneath a bust of their late father Prince Albert. I see a lot of similarities in siriusc's outfits.

I mean, to me capturing the sort of atmosphere of prominent Victorian's in mourning is goth as fuck but hey.
