      Truly I teared up a bit about this aspect of the video. My grandma used to be a seamstress, but the fast fashion boom in the 80s killed her work. If the US wasn't so obsessed with low quality and high volume clothing (et al) that exploits people in other countries, we might see more businesses like the clothing shops in this video, making gorgeous bespoke pieces that people feel amazing in.

    Just when I thought German goths were intense, Mexico is like, "Hold my cerveza." Those bars, clubs, and cafes are intense... especially the bar/cafe with all the skulls embedded in the walls! That Aztec/Mayan/Native Mexican art looks right at home there. It's gorgeous. Not to mention the art!! What talented people to be able to freehand album art, band logos and gorgeous murals. It's all so beautiful. I never knew my life was missing a Goth Trip to Mexico City. . .

      Germany's goth scene seems super intimidating to me lol. After this video though I'd love to visit Mexico City and just chat with some of the designers about the local fashion industry...in my horrible broken Spanish. Maybe it's from working for a Guatemalan business* for several years, but Latin America just seems so friendly and welcoming.
      *mind you, this was not a goth business and there were still plenty of lovely hand painted skulls ❤

    I remember going to Mexico City back in 1999 and seeing full blown goths dressed to the nines, complete with corsets, Victorian dresses, velvet frock coats, ruffled shirts, fishnets and and buckle boots along with Robert Smith hair and make up in the middle of a weekday afternoon! I saw them at the market, the subway, at the taco stand, etc. and that's when I knew that Mexican goths are hardcore!

    This is one of the main reasons of why I love living in Mexico City. And you should come last days of October - first days of November. Even when nowadays people started to relate Day of the Dead (Día de Muertos) to painting their faces like skulls (which is not mexican at all), the streets are full with people selling sweets, toys and decoration skulls, pumpkings and witchy things. Also, from recent years (mostly since that Bond movie) we have different parades related to Day of the Death (this year there's like 5 or 6 different parades).
    I love Bizarro cafe and El Chopo! Something about El Chopo is that in the beginning it was all about music, now is mostly about shirts and clothes but If you go to the last part there is a lot of guy selling or trading CD's, movies, concerts and LP's. I love going there to buy some gothic-metal-rock CD's.

    THANK YOU for posting this video!! The scene in CDMX is soo intense! I go three to four times a year, and recently started making sure to stop by El Real Under whenever I'm in town (you weren't joking about the fact it is hot af in there). I am tooottalllly going to check out algunos de los talleres de los darks (goth ateliers) the next time I'm down there. I am blown away they have the designers and costureras right there! THAT is part of the magic of Mexico. *swoon* There are also electro/industrial events scattered throughout town on any given weekend, but I rely on friends from that scene to recommend where to go.

      Hi. Currently I'm helping a friend to add subtitles. You can type them and add them, and then submit your collaboration. Right beneath the video in the three points next to "Save" you can see the option "add translation" Do it and maybe he accepts your contribution. After watching the video that says some people got offended about this particular video, maybe because it's not in Spanish, I'm planning on write the subtitles and send them to him. Good luck! Have fun!

    My late wife would have loved to visit these places, but sadly I only discovered this channel in 2019 (over two years since she died in Feb 2017) she like me was into Goth & Dark Wave (amongst a whole other bunch of genres) .
    Her mom is from the D.F. and her dad was from L.A. (via Mexico)
    Up until her death we went to the local Las Vegas Dias del los Muertos celebrations starting in the late 1990's
