I'm seeing everyone wearing these tops on the street. Goth brands are picking up the trend again, though I do have to say many of them have been doing it before it was cool, as evidenced by this Lip Service dress I got maybe 8 years ago:
Nope, not cleaning my room, ma |
So both the Kill Star and Lip Service top have either a button or a zipper to close the choker part, but I've seen some brands where the choker part is elastic and you pull it over your head like a turtle neck. I imagine that, like turtlenecks, it won't be snug against your neck after maybe 2 washes.
Kill Star, bought recently...did not think it would be a trend |
Have you been seeing these everywhere too?
This is one of those things that would not fit me, I have a shorter neck and disproportionately smaller torso. I guess I'll stick to separate chokers, I just made one today for under $10 and it came out pretty good.
ReplyDeleteVery cool!
DeleteI would have killed for this kind of top when I was 12.
ReplyDeleteI mean, like the cold shoulder tops, it's just a trend. I think chockers pretty much do the job anyway.
But like you photo above (gorgeous!) they will always remind me of fetish goth ;)
Yeah it's very fetish goth! Which I'm kind of liking at the moment... This trend is like everyday fetish goth (lol).
DeleteI have always loved the look of these, but I have a short neck and torso, so they look kinda weird on me. I did just buy the most fabulous vampire - ish choker gown in a thrift store tho', I couldn't resist it for $1...:D
ReplyDeleteLucky find!
