Guest blogger Natasha Scharf explores the ‘Classic Goth’ look for Kate's Clothing over on our Alt Side Blog

In this awesome blog Natasha Scharf explore the resurgence of the classic goth look, taking it influences from gothic icons such as Siouxsie And The Banshees, The Sisters Of Mercy and Bauhaus 

Here is a quote

"At this year’s LondonEdge tradeshow, there was a noticeable return to a more classic, or trad goth look with companies embracing luxury fabrics, such as brocade, jacquard, velvet and lace in black or deep jewel colours. Some brands, such as Punk Rave, Killstar and Hellbunny, have blended these with contemporary streetwear styles and 1950s clothing for an updated look. There were tailcoats for both sexes – Chic Star have some great budget options – and plenty of long, frilled skirts for the ladies. "

NEW ROCK BOOTS ready to dominate the alternative world!

Today we are showing some appreciation to one of the most influential brands in Gothic Fashion and alternative culture, New Rock Boots!

They are a brand that almost defined a style and inspired gothic clothing everywhere, all around the globe!

They have been worn by some of the more icon bands in goth, industrial, black and heavy metal… and also by characters in Dr Who! Above we have a shot of Cradle Of Filth wearing some New Rock Boots, we wanted to share images of them being worn by God Of F**K Marilyn Manson too but unfortunately pictures of his feet are hard to come by :-/  So you will just have to take if from us Mazza, Dimmu Borgir and a horde of other stars agree with us when we say ‘It is all about NEW ROCK BOOTS!’

So where can you get them?! The internet is full of lame New Rock Drop Shippers with little to no customer service and sour reputations for ripping people off or not delivering for months! Well never fear as we are here with our trust New Rock sister site NEWROCKBOOTSUK.COM where you can find the full catalogue of New Rock Boots but with all the reliability of shopping with Kate’s Clothing!

Don’t forget if you need your New Rocks fast, we still have stock at KC ready for next day delivery. There pairs can be found in our gothic shoes and boots section or our dedicated New Rock Boots category… but for everything else try New Rock Boots UK!
