E-kids is an alternative subculture.

It takes inspiration on many alternative styles such as emo, techwear, some harajuku styles, punk, and sometimes pastel goth.

E-kids is a general term for e-girls and e-boys.

It’s a less OTT (over the top) style compared to other alternative subcultures. That’s why people often say “it’s not alt”; which is incorrect.

In the e-kid fashion we often see big influence from Japanese and Korean street fashion. As majority of alternative styles, they usually wear dark clothing but they like sometimes to add a bit of color. They usually wear a lot of accessories, specially a LOT of chains.

Their makeup often consists of big and/or graphic eyeliners and sometimes love to play with colorful eyeshadows and glitter.

The “Gamer Girl” aesthetic is basically part of the E-kid substyle, Gamer Girls (even though not all of them are girls) use a lot of more pastel colors, specially pink and incorporate more kawaii elements

The e-kid subculture is also music based. Though music is not a rule, they usually listen to Dark Trap, Trap Metal, Pop, and sometimes emo, grunge rock and heavy metal.
Educate more about fashion and stop spreading hate towards e-kids just because YOU don’t like it! <3
