Gothic glam buys to elevate your wardrobe – including Matalan £25 ‘Wednesday’ dress
  • 19:00, 4 NOV 2023

Thanks to the success of Netflix’s ‘Wednesday’ and celebs such as Kourtney Kardashian with her goth-rock-inspired fashion, gothic glam has made its comeback. Think of lots of black, high collars, lace and netting details if you want to nail the look.

The key to wearing this trend without looking too costumey or Halloween-y is to incorporate elements of the style into your own wardrobe. And despite what you may think, often less is more if you want a super chic, witchy look.

So to help you out, here at OK! we’ve found the best gothic-inspired pieces on the high street, from head-to-toe lace looks to embellished details and sheer pieces…

Haunt couture

Lace is probably the easiest way to incorporate the trend into your own style and this Zara one will look super stylish for party season and comes in at under £60!
