As a darkly-inclined/Gothic sub culture person, I must say that the fashion aspects of my sub culture always interested me just as much as it being a music based sub culture. Which alas it is, but I love how you slowed down & talked about other fashion aspects, such as traditional on screen cinema vamps. Or like the original first run Connery-era James Bond films. It's cool, as I see what you mean. Very nicely produced video on Gothic/Alternative fashion, as per always.🦇🖤🐈⬛
I appreciate this so much and I love that you caught all of my cinema references & understand why I adore them so much. I agreed, I love the dark and goth music subculture but we cannot deny the beautiful art form of the fashion that lives alongside it 🖤 thank you for watching!
Oh its all cool! And no problem. Its another very good video with many respectable points. Your content is really good. Same here: I adore music but cinema even more, if we're being totally honest! Heh heh. So alas I caught onto all of the cinematic references. Alas while many refer to Gothic as a music based sub culture, and indeed they're totally right as it is, I feel that fashion immediately comes in a rather close second place rather. I'm _VERY_ happy to finally meet someone not only talking about the music & societal aspects of it but also the Goth Fashion. 🦇🦇🖤🐈⬛
Would look forward to your other dark essence videos. Maybe a Dramatic + Romantic dark essence styling video since it's pretty common for those to have one essence to also have the other.
Maybe! That actually would fit into some of the essence videos I have planned and since I have Natural / Romantic/ Dramatic essence you'll get a bit of that! So much planned this year, crazy to think theres only 3-4 videos a month 🥲
Are you going to do a Dark Ingenue video? I enjoyed your Dark Romantic video but I don't see myself in this one. Maybe Dark Natural, Dark Classic or Dark Ingenue?
Hmmm... red lipstick, of course. Velvet and satiny fabrics, yes. Sweetheart necklines, definitely. Guess I have a little romantic in me lol ❤️🖤❤ Looking forward to natural and dramatic
Hell yeah, as a main Romantic Essence I loved this video soo much! Hyped up for Classic Essence as well! Something I had thought about but hadn't really solidified until seeing this video, that could be a good reference for Dark Romantic Essence is the archetypical beautiful Italian widow. I'm talking about that faux/pulp/fantastical imagery of full black with lots of lace and fitted clothing, dark makeup, perfectly coiffed hair, pearls and religious jewelry (and not real widows of course). Seeing those pics of Alexa Demie wearing that lace veil made me think of this and reminded me of that ad with Monica Bellucci for Sicily perfume that heavily relies on this. Another good example would be Rachel Weisz in My Cousin Rachel, who could also be categorized as a femme fatale IMO. To me, this archetype combines sensuality/beauty with the darkness of death but with a bit of a twist that feels fitting to the a Dark Romantic Essence.
Yes you are on point with the Italian Widow! And I almost put that Monica Belluci ad in but realized I grabbed blurry ones & I was too deep into editing 😞 but yes you are completely on point! Very excited for Classic especially since most view Classic as very light academia / first lady vibes- I'm so excited to show a darker version 🖤
I LOVE that you're going over dark styles. I really want to see where you might put punk overlaps in these essences too! I know adding masc, enby or plus figures might complicate things even further but still, I'd love to see you're take! Thaks so much for this :)
Absolutely! I actually see punk looking natural on Gamine Essence and Dramatic essence- punk can work on ANYBODY but the essences it reminds me of immediately are those two 🖤 Nana Osaki, old old Vivienne Westwood, London Punk, PNW punk subculture all remind me of Gamines especially
I loved this ❤ I agree completely with all of your picks. I love wearing corset details, velvet, puff/balloon sleeves, dark floral prints, and anything like a vintage romance novel cover. Also heart motifs are gorgeous. I've even felt inspired to pull some of these valentines day colors & gothic castle vibes into my home decorating as well. I also find inspiration for my Romantic wardrobe in some 1980s art too, like in fantasy illustration, Kate Bush, and movies like the Lost Boys :) great video! Also loved Special Guest Gengar, I'm going to assume he's a Dark Romantic type as well as a Ghost type 😂
I can't express how happy I am to have found your channel and can't thank you enough for making these videos! This has to be one of my essences. My closet is filled with balloon sleeves, corsets, Basque waist garments, slip dresses, golds, garnets, filigree, velvets, lots of black and red as well as gothic crosses. I'm obsessed with Regal Roses cathedral jewelry and own them in silver and gold. My biggest struggle is toning my style down for everyday wear because I hate being stared at or asked "what's the occasion". I think I'll take your advice on fitted cardigans! Thank you so much.
This was such a helpful guide. I feel like I fall in between romantic and ingenue so this was incredibly insightful and I’ll definitely be using this video for a long time.
As a non gothic girlie who have romantic as one of her top 3 essences, I really loved this video! I am also a winter seasonal color so I can pull of more darker colors as well!! Much love! 🤩🥹🔥 I will look at other essence videos of you as well! 👀
11:38 very true. i’m a romantic and catholic motifs suit me really really well. you could go with this lana del rey-virgin-mary-siren style with ease if u r a romantic
the outfits and options you give are always on point, so pretty and opulent, which i love! also i came to see i am not a romantic as i initially thought, i should wait for the dark ingenue essence video i guess, eheh, great job btw 🖤✨☁️🥀
I'm a theatrical romantic w/ romantic dramatic essence, and dark romantic is the style that I'm really drawn to! My only problem is that my seasonal color is true spring so black can make me look dull and sick hahaha and the only red that looks good on me is tomato red 😅 and the "black" on my palette is dark brown HAHAHA so I don't know how I'm gonna make this work 😭 because of my seasonal color I feel like I'm gonna have a bit of natural essence too, but I'm not drawn to it tbh
Love special guest Gengar! These videos are so helpful to me, I feel like having the visuals and your explanation of the different elements (corsets, floral/roses, red lip, sultry eyes etc) make it super simple to understand the difference between the essences, and I love that you show different bodytypes
I love this! Dark romantic is definitely my essence! I never knew this was a thing (Essences) and as you were describing the characteristics of a dark romantic, I just get little bursts of excitement. Now I know how to be more intentional with my style! Thank you!!!
I appreciate this so much because I too also get giddy when talking about dark styles so it makes me happy that my videos are found by those who feel the same 🖤
I put in effort over months to find my essences and i felt my strongest essence was Romantic but didnt know whether my second was gamine ir ingenue but i knew i didnt feel at home in my kibbie SG gamine essence and wearing clothes to the gamine essence just made me look like i was wearing a costume and made look even younger . You said you think my main essence is romantic too in a past comment. I had my essences looked at ,in order mine are Romantic , Ingenue , gamine , dramatic , classic . I feel like i vibe better with dramatic hints than gamine hints but its official i barely have a gamine essence , yet im a kibbie gamine 🤷🏻♀️😂 i definitely found Kirchner's essences to be the most helpful in styling in general although i have learnt a lot from kibbie the essences have opened a door to being comfortable in my wardrobe. I really relate to everything you have mentioned in this video . I recently found sweatheart necklines to look the best on me and yet i only have one top with this neckline 🫣 its one of my favourites. Its so difficult to find a top with this neckline that i like. I love your videos , never stop making them x
Awww thank you for all of this! Stay tuned for Dramatic and Gamine dark essences to compare the two - but Dramatic will feel more angular & bolder, Gamines are angular but with daintier facial features And agreed, not enough sweet heart necklines or open necklines, I'm always on the hunt 😩
@@silkymochi yeah dramatic is stronger ,I just don't harmonise with the childish ,youthful , fun element to gamine but the narrow and delicate angles work along with romantic lines which is literally a description of TR and this is why I have always looked best in TR lines . Your welcome ☺️ I'm looking forward to the other videos , thank you x
Are you planning to make videos on combining dark essence with the seasons? I’m a warm spring and I find it a struggle to find nice dark/gothic colors schemes that would fit me 😅
I kind of have already! I've done Dark Aesthetic Springs already and Summer is coming next week! So it's not focusing on the Essences but more so dark styles with your season in mind
these videos have been so incredibly helpful! i’ve been fascinated by kibbe/kitchener type systems for years but could never really pin myself down, but you helped me realize it’s because my face and body don’t have the same essence! i don’t know why i thought both had to be the same 🥺 my face has an ingenue essence and my body is more romantic. definitely pulling so much inspo from these!! ❤
I feel like I have some romantic essence but rather in my body. I feel like in the face I'm more confused. People often refer to me as ethereal or Renaissance-like. But i also am very youthul. So I can't understand if there's some ethereal, ingenue or classic as secondary components
I've been binge watching your videos! 🖤🖤🖤 Love your take on Dark Essences and all the ideas you give to achieve a look. I'm not a dark aesthetic person, it is almost impossible to wear that type of aesthetic in a hot tropical island. I have natural, classic and ethereal essences. When I watch your videos what comes to my mind is music. Music as inspiration for essences. And for dark romantic I thought of The Psychedelic Furs from the 80s.
Thank you! If youre thinking what I'm thinking then that might be the Dark Naturals! Natural essence feels quite earthy, warm, embracing imperfections, undone kind of sort of thing - and thats coming next Monday!
I actually do have a discord but for Patreon members 🖤 I have so many socials to keep up with I wanted to limit discord since I wont be on it as often lol
Still working on one accessible to all! I had some tech issues when I first started it 😅 but for now I only have it for $20 to message me direct questions on style advice 🖤
Huge question for you: Do you think, the older one gets, the more they might portray their actual sun sign rather than coming across as their rising sign? I mean, if one gets really deep into their core, their actual real self, the inside, the base, the truest form of themselves. The reason I ask: The older I get, the more I feel like I give off the vibe of my sun sign rather than my rising sign (or first house). Visually and in terms of vibes. I am a Scorpio sun sign, Gemini rising. And while I know I felt like a Gemini when I was younger, I now come across more and more like a Scorpio. And I wonder, could this be actually correct for anyone who would be willing to dive into their own depths rather than living a life far from their true self and true needs? I don't feel connected to the ways Gemini risings are usually visually described or showcased. But I feel deeply connected to Scorpio rising descriptions and visuals. I overall feel deeply connected to my sun sign and even though I got a personal birth chart reading which is pretty accurate for me, I don't feel like it still applies now that I am older. I got that done when I was 12 but I got it done for a "grown up" because I felt so "mature" already back then. Whenever I read it again, I feel like it describes my past pretty well. From when I was 12 to when I was in my late 20's. But since then? Not anymore. That's weird to me. Like the story isn't written yet. Which in a mystical story book would mean I have to write it myself, but you know, I never wanna stop learning and exploring, so, maybe someone has gotten some sort of answers for me or a hint that would inspire me somehow. [I indeed am a very spiritual yet analytical person. I get called macabre quite often, cynical, dark and scary. But only by those I wanna show this part of myself to.] By the way, I am a Kibbe DC and it took me 7+ years to figure that out. I totally understand why you don't wanna create Kibbe content anymore. Yet I am so at ease with that Image ID FINALLY. I felt so off in any other ID and the moment I saw the balance within me, the slight "edge" on top, I was like "OMG why was I not able to see this earlier?!", and while I was fully aware of why I wasn't, I still felt stupid. Why I meantion this? Because I feel like I would have never been able to see this in an earlier age. I had baby fat on my bones for a very long time (even in my late 20's and early 30's, even when underweight) and also had intense weight fluctuations during puberty (which may or may not have taken way longer than it usually should). And on top of that I feel like DC goes quite well with how I identify as a Scorpio sun sign. A Kibbe Dramatic would be perfect for a Scorpio as well, but in my case DC makes sense, because maybe the Gemini rising balances parts of the Scorpio sun (to the outside) so that it doesn't appear so intense and dark. l find it all very fascinating and fun to explore. I really am all about fully understanding myself. And I feel like I have a few too many "phoenix from the ashes" moments for one person alone. But that might be typical for a Scorpio sun? I wish I could just casually chat with you while having a coffee. Not because you are focusing on topics like that but mainly because you feel like a person I would get along with very well. Like it would instantly click. Sounds creepy? If so, I am very sorry, but it's just what I honestly think. Making friends feels hard nowadays. And while I don't need friends, I feel like a part of me misses the connection. Why am I getting sentimental now? Anyways... I look forward to your new videos, something tells me they'll be very interesting to watch.
This is a lot to unpack and I might discuss more on my QA (which will be my knitting video) but I truly appreciate this and you saying I seem like the person you can casually chat with 🖤 thats super sweet! Theoretically it is actually said our rising as our ascendant is who we ascend to as we get older but I also think as we get older we also get more comfortable with other parts of ourselves- your sun represents your ego, who you see your self as and who you show up as when you feel your best & I also think the more comfortable you are your moon sign can present itself too but theres also the houses in your chart that come into play as well But I can go over so much more in that QA but I won't be discussing Kibbe anymore - thank you again for your insight 🖤
What would you recommend for those who want to express both their primary and secondary essences For example: the Romantic-Dramatic-Natural Or the Dramatic-Ingenue?
Okay, where do I start, first for months I've been looking up stuff about Kibbe/Kitchner and I'm still confused. It makes no sense, facial features and body types aren't matched like that. Just because someone has full lips, doesn't mean they will have a curvy body. And people should wear what they are attracted to, my body may be more gamine or ethereal, or whatever, but I like the matte lipsticks you mention for romantics. And I don't think most DARK aesthetic types would be caught dead with heart shaped jewelry, it's too cutesy, more LIGHT aesthetics- girls who LOVE pink, and yellow.
So I mention this more in my Kibbe & Essences playlist but you can have a different Kibbe than your 3 essences (for example I'm a Soft Natural with a Natural / Dramatic / Romantic essence) I would start with those playlists if other videos have confused you but just know that most of videos are told through the lens of a dark aesthetic or astrology! But first and foremost your Kibbe and essences can be different
Also those who love dark aesthetics still like hearts and cutesy motifs - the point of my channel is to showcase that dark aesthetics is one noted and is actually a vast umbrella. Hearts arent just cutest it has associations with witchcraft and vampire lore as well
U just easily explained my NATURAL Complex Dark Romantic SELF ❤🖤🌹🥀🐞🍒🌃⛩♥️♠️♦️💄🎩👠♣️🏮🎸🩸♏♐💎 ...I ABSOLUTELY ADORE YOU & YOUR CHANNEL 😍 SUBSCRIBED IMMEDIATELY ..LAST WEEK YOU DESCRIBED MY DARK FAIRY/LIGHT FAIRY ASPECTS SOO IM CONVINCED YOU KNOW MY CORE AT THIS POINT 😜....REALLY GREAT CONTENT GORGEOUS 👍

Thank you, that means a lot 🖤
It’s a style that comes naturally

I am not a goth but I certainly am known to wear alot of black.Black is rather a happy color ;)
Loooove black 🖤
Also you don't have to be goth to have a dark aesthetic ✨
Hell yeah, as a main Romantic Essence I loved this video soo much! Hyped up for Classic Essence as well!
Something I had thought about but hadn't really solidified until seeing this video, that could be a good reference for Dark Romantic Essence is the archetypical beautiful Italian widow.

Huge question for you: Do you think, the older one gets, the more they might portray their actual sun sign rather than coming across as their rising sign? I mean, if one gets really deep into their core, their actual real self, the inside, the base, the truest form of themselves.
The reason I ask: The older I get, the more I feel like I give off the vibe of my sun sign rather than my rising sign (or first house). Visually and in terms of vibes. I am a Scorpio sun sign, Gemini rising. And while I know I felt like a Gemini when I was younger, I now come across more and more like a Scorpio.
And I wonder, could this be actually correct for anyone who would be willing to dive into their own depths rather than living a life far from their true self and true needs?
I don't feel connected to the ways Gemini risings are usually visually described or showcased. But I feel deeply connected to Scorpio rising descriptions and visuals. I overall feel deeply connected to my sun sign and even though I got a personal birth chart reading which is pretty accurate for me, I don't feel like it still applies now that I am older. I got that done when I was 12 but I got it done for a "grown up" because I felt so "mature" already back then. Whenever I read it again, I feel like it describes my past pretty well. From when I was 12 to when I was in my late 20's. But since then? Not anymore. That's weird to me. Like the story isn't written yet.

And on top of that I feel like DC goes quite well with how I identify as a Scorpio sun sign. A Kibbe Dramatic would be perfect for a Scorpio as well, but in my case DC makes sense, because maybe the Gemini rising balances parts of the Scorpio sun (to the outside) so that it doesn't appear so intense and dark. l find it all very fascinating and fun to explore. I really am all about fully understanding myself. And I feel like I have a few too many "phoenix from the ashes" moments for one person alone. But that might be typical for a Scorpio sun?
I wish I could just casually chat with you while having a coffee. Not because you are focusing on topics like that but mainly because you feel like a person I would get along with very well. Like it would instantly click. Sounds creepy? If so, I am very sorry, but it's just what I honestly think. Making friends feels hard nowadays. And while I don't need friends, I feel like a part of me misses the connection. Why am I getting sentimental now? Anyways... I look forward to your new videos, something tells me they'll be very interesting to watch.
This is a lot to unpack and I might discuss more on my QA (which will be my knitting video) but I truly appreciate this and you saying I seem like the person you can casually chat with 🖤 thats super sweet!
Theoretically it is actually said our rising as our ascendant is who we ascend to as we get older but I also think as we get older we also get more comfortable with other parts of ourselves- your sun represents your ego, who you see your self as and who you show up as when you feel your best & I also think the more comfortable you are your moon sign can present itself too but theres also the houses in your chart that come into play as well
But I can go over so much more in that QA but I won't be discussing Kibbe anymore - thank you again for your insight 🖤
What would you recommend for those who want to express both their primary and secondary essences
For example: the Romantic-Dramatic-Natural
Or the Dramatic-Ingenue?
I just did some research and I'm a Romantic or Ingenue or Natural
You can be a mix of all three!
Okay, where do I start, first for months I've been looking up stuff about Kibbe/Kitchner and I'm still confused. It makes no sense, facial features and body types aren't matched like that. Just because someone has full lips, doesn't mean they will have a curvy body. And people should wear what they are attracted to, my body may be more gamine or ethereal, or whatever, but I like the matte lipsticks you mention for romantics.
And I don't think most DARK aesthetic types would be caught dead with heart shaped jewelry, it's too cutesy, more LIGHT aesthetics- girls who LOVE pink, and yellow.
So I mention this more in my Kibbe & Essences playlist but you can have a different Kibbe than your 3 essences (for example I'm a Soft Natural with a Natural / Dramatic / Romantic essence)
I would start with those playlists if other videos have confused you but just know that most of videos are told through the lens of a dark aesthetic or astrology! But first and foremost your Kibbe and essences can be different
Also those who love dark aesthetics still like hearts and cutesy motifs - the point of my channel is to showcase that dark aesthetics is one noted and is actually a vast umbrella. Hearts arent just cutest it has associations with witchcraft and vampire lore as well
Example of Dark Romantic essence would be Dita Von Teese
I actually put her in my Dark Classic Essence video!
romantic is my secondary essence but I don't dress feminine:(
