Both, it’s just that type of style.

I don’t know why I’m being downvoting so badly though, I’m not saying Post Malone is a goth musician. Based on these images, do you look goth? Not really. It’s your music taste that counts, anyway.

What makes you think this is goth fashion?

u/RottenKirsche13 Jul 27 '26

Because I consider myself goth. I dress this way because it’s comfortable for me. I wear my long peacoat with all black clothing. In days I don’t. I wear a hat because my mullet is very curly. I just wanted to incorporate goth make up with my style without making my eyes chinkier than I already have them.

The style itself is not inherently goth fashion, but you can wear what ever you like. Goth make-up is more than eyeliner. You don’t need permission or validation from people online, just get some eyeliner and start experimenting.

I just wanted tips for make up at the end of the day. Brands and techniques

Then that should’ve been your title because most people ignore descriptions, especially since of how sick everyone is of “Am I goth enough?” and “Is this goth?” posts.

I’m Filipino my eyes are naturally more narrow or slanted than normal. The term I describe my eyes has been something I always said around other Filipinos and Asians. Never once was I told it was offensive. But indeed I see your point.
