'Corporate Goth' sometimes known as City Goth, is a subgenre of gothic fashion. Although first adopted as a response to dress codes in corporate settings, such as offices, the 'Corporate Goth' look is often worn in non-working situations by those with mature, smart and gothic taste.
‘Corporate Goth’ often includes a pant suit in black or dark grey, an ornate, silk, lacy, frilled or otherwise dressy blouse/shirt and simple gothic jewellery. Dark eye makeup is usually worn, though the makeup is less overdone then other gothic looks. Lips can be left nude or an autumn shade of lipstick (dark red, plum ect) can be worn. Black lipstick is not often seen.
Acceptable colours include black, shades of grey or brown, jewel tones and white or cream.

John commented that his friends' black pantsuit, dark red blouse and black jewelry made her look rather 'corporate goth'.

Goth is a culture. It's not about hating the world. It's about appreciating and finding beauty in the dark side of life. You can find that lots of goths are musicians and poets and artists. Not all goths wear all black, you can worship the devil without being goth. Goths are often older, mostly in their 20's-30's. There are also many sub-cultures of goth. Cybergoth, victorian goth, romantic goth, just to name a few. Goths are often more mature.
Emo is a phase that a lot of teenagers go through, usually starting at the age of 13. It includes saying you have mental disorders to fit in. Often you see emo kids competing on who has the most extreme mental disorders that they diagnosed themselves. They don't know anything about emotive hardcore music, which the trend originated from. When the trend originally started, it was all about the music, and not the fashion. But with bands like My Chemical Romance, it became about self-harm. Please, remember that self-harming is a serious mental disorder that many people have, and it doesn't make them "emo" if they do. And please, don't self-harm just to fit in to a trend.

Get the The Difference Between Goth and Emo mug.A person who loves things such as black make up and black clothing, but has hidden it for a long time. Once they come out of their shell and become a normal goth, they are looked upon and are known as posers instead of themselves. They can be any type of goth too.
They are normally very understanding, but many people are thrown off by their change or actual look so they never get close enough to be their friend and they normally are mean to them instead of trying to talk to them.

Normal Person- S/he changed into a goth what a poser!
Someone who understands- She isn't a poser she is a soft goth.

Get the soft goth mug.Young peopel use the word Gatho instead of party to sway parents to let them go. It is meant to convey a smaller and more innocent night with friends, but in reality is just another word for party. They also dont realise how douchey they sound when they say gatho, and also how much it makes me want to punch them right in the face.
e.g Sarah: Mum can I go to Sam's party tonight?
Mum: Party! No way, you will be doing drugs and having sex, absolutely not.
e.g Sarah: Mum, Sam is having a gatho with a couple of friends can i please go.
Mum: ohh, a gathering that sounds nicem have a good night.

Get the Gatho mug.People who still enjoy Electronic Music, but think most ravers are the equivalency of that Scum that forms on the surface of the Detroit River or at the bottom of Niagara Falls. They tend to incorporate the Fashion trends of the Candy Kid movement Blended with Victorian and Rivet-Head Styles Making what would appear in the surface as a "Happy Goth" Steam-Punk/Goth also falls into this Category. so there really are Two Sides less Further expansions (i.e. Everyone in Japan) those are Futurist Dystopia, and Post-Apocalyptic.
Think Bright colours on Goths that aren't afraid to Dance and have fun. Hyper Digital Ideas. Hard Electronic.
They have Musical Genres that Exist only because of them these are Goa, Synth-Pop, Future-Pop, Hard-Step, (most)EBM, IDM, and some Hard trance.
Behold Marilyn Manson is no longer God! the gods of the future will be only 1s and 0s.
Cyber Writers - Heinlen, William Gibson, Etc.
Cyber Movies - City of Lost Children, Minority Report, Johnny Mnemonic, Blade Runner, etc.
Cyber Bands - Neuroticfish, Rottersand, Icon of Coil, Assemblage 23, VNV Nation, Funker Vogt, Grendal, etc.
Cyber Designers - Cyber Dog, Cryoflesh, Nerve Damage, Skaillez, Goblinz, etc.
The Pretentious Attitude is a Throwback from Both the rave culture and the goth cultures, where both scenes were very elitist. No one talked to anyone unless they had an in, into your group, or you could dance. though unless you remeber the goth and Rave scenes from when they were both truly alive you wouldn't know what I mean, and you would also most likely be a Youngling in whatever scene you are in so... The point is... this is a scene of people that Migrated from other cultures to find a home in something that made sense to them. and are a bit closed off from the rest of the world for lack of acceptance.
This in a Very Small nutshell, is Cyber Goth, It really is all about the Music though
