A contradiction in terms.
Emos are not gothic, and goths are not emo. They both sprang from the punk subculture, and they both wear a lot of black, but that's where the similarities end.

She donned a frilly bonnet, an apron, a lacy shirt, and a poofy skirt before stepping out of the house. Even though we knew what she was trying to dress like a girl in The Gothic and Lolita Bilbe, she still looked like a child.

Get the Gothic Lolita mug.A real goth doesn't conform to any trend. Wearing all black was an attempt to defy conformity, before it became a trend in itself. Real goths don't give much of a fuck about what they wear, it just happens that they wear black. This labeling is all about a persons mentality and beliefs, not the way the dress. Of course, because of little idiot kids, Goths have now become shamed... all because of little fuckheads trying to be different. It's all about the music and your mentality, not the way you appear.

Get the Goth/Gothic mug.An other "type" of goth with a general knowledge of Goth Culture. They give their own "flair" to the scene by being to such an extreme of non-conformist that they often don't get the approval of other more traditional goths because their quite a bit "wilder" in behavior than others.
The typical dress of a Punk Goth is not always all black. They tend to like a more "punky" look with accessories like wristbands, beanies, and chains hanging from their pants or long shorts.
