"Now we're going to talk about the beginning of the Goth outfit. And the basis for any good Goth outfit is a pair of black boots. Tall black boots. They can be mid-calf, they can be ankle boots, but in general, large boots with a very thick sole. And you want to have some hardware on them. Again, the silver hardware that we talked about with the jewelry. A platform heel is also really good. And this is actually going to be for both men and women. Another basic as far as Goth attire goes, is the fishnet stocking. And true to fashion, with not wanting anything in Goth to be too perfect or too planned, the ripped, the more ripped the better as far as the stockings go. And you'll see people wearing these stockings in black, they have them in various different colors. But the boots are always black and they're really the foundation of any sort of Goth outfit. So if you're, if you're trying to put the look together, and you're trying to think of one piece to buy, I would say it's a pair of big black boots because you'll wear them with everything else in your Goth wardrobe.
