1. “Gothic” History:

Gothic originally refers to the Goths (a Germanic tribe in Western Europe). At the same time, Gothic also refers to the culture and art created by the Goths in the Middle Ages, represented by church architecture.

This type of Gothic church has a "pointed" roof, which is opposite to the Romanesque "round" church style▼▼

The word Gothic was originally used to symbolize the art form of the Middle Ages, that is, the period between the classical era and the Renaissance▼▼

classical era

Renaissance

The word Gothic comes from a Germanic tribe called the Goths, which flourished during the last period of the Roman Empire. Rome's classical architecture and art are considered the epitome of culture, and the Visigoths were the first people in history to occupy the city of Rome. The Goths destroyed Rome and destroyed civilization, so Goth in that period meant rudeness, destruction and uncivilization. The origin of the word Goth has nothing to do with its current usage▼▼

During the Romantic movement from 1800 to 1850, medieval culture and related things gradually became fashionable in the eyes of some people. Some romantics hope to jump beyond the boundaries of history and return to the Middle Ages. Throughout the Romantic movement, Gothic began to be considered to be associated with darkness, strangeness, and ghosts building.

The neo-Gothic movement began in the UK in the 1980s. The emergence of the Gothic movement was influenced by the post-punk movement in the late 1970s. It can be said to be a continuation and reflection of the punk movement. It opposed narrow moral, sexual concepts and traditional religious beliefs. The neo-Gothic movement is obviously related to the Romanticism of the 18th and 19th centuries. Lyricalism, death-like aesthetics, and the exploration of destruction and darkness are common expressions of Gothic artists, such as pale faces, black clothing, and the Victorian era. fashion, and medieval ruins and Gothic architecture.

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the American Goth movement emerged. Gothic culture continues to grow and develop into various branches, but Gothic clothing style evolved from Gothic music style. The long dyed black hair, pale skin, black cloth, pointed boots and a large number of silver ornaments are mainly based on early European and Egyptian religious designs. However, these clothes were not accepted by mainstream fashion designers at the time because their styles were passive, aggressive, cruel, and exuded a rebellious spirit. Until now, goth y2k clothes are becoming popular again. In addition to some niche Gothic brands Kollyy, it has also attracted the attention of some big-name fashion designers, such as Kenzo, AnnaSui, IsseyMiyake, etc. ▼▼
