3. Goth (Romantic Goth, Pastel Goth, Gothic Lolita, Bubble Goth)

First, we should mention that Goth style started as a subculture to gothic rock music, in the late 1970s. It mainly focuses on themes like darkness, mystery, and dark elegance with ornate details. Additionally, it often includes religious elements as well.

It is mostly characterized by the use of black color, lace, velvet, heavy makeup, Victorian or medieval-inspired fashion items, and skulls. Basically, it’s all about darkness. Furthermore, the dramatic lighting and gothic architecture contribute to the dramatic and mysterious vibe.

Moreover, there are a few subgenres to this style that are worth mentioning:

Romantic Goth: It’s a lighter, softer form of Gothic style. It is influenced by the fashion of the Romantic Era (1800-1850) and gothic literature. It includes flowing fabrics, ruffles, velvet, and lace in dark colors like deep reds, purples, and blacks. To sum up, it emphasizes a decadent and sophisticated look. (Prompt: ‘Romantic Goth style, woman wearing a hat and trench coat.‘)

Pastel Goth: Beautifully combines the dark goth style with pastel colors, such as soft pinks, blues, and lavenders. It usually features skull motifs, platform shoes, pastel hair, and cute or kawaii accessories. It offers a playful yet eerie look. (Prompt: ‘Pastel Goth style, woman wearing a hat and trench coat.’)

The Gothic Lolita style combines the traditional Goth aesthetics with the Japanese Lolita style, which is doll-like and youthful. Primarily a fashion style, it is characterized by black clothes, sophisticated dresses, petticoats, lace, and bows. (Prompt: ‘Gothic Lolita style, woman wearing a hat and trench coat.‘)

And let’s see another Goth style – a fun one:

4. Film Noir (RetroFuturist Noir, Liquid Chrome Noir, Cotton Candy Noir)

Film Noir is all about black and white, with a moody and cinematic feel.

Furthermore, it gives images a dramatic and suspenseful vibe. (Prompt: ‘Woman wearing a hat and trench coat, Film Noir portrait, mysterious, dark atmosphere.‘)

However, if you like the drama of Noir but want to add a futuristic twist to your images, try the Retrofuturist Noir style. This combines the well-known monochromatic visual with retrofuturist neon accents and futuristic, holographic elements. Consequently, it’s the perfect blend of classic fashion and modern technology.

Furthermore, we can even add a special effect to our Noir images with Liquid Chrome Noir. Or just Liquid Chrome, without the Noir. Either way, this adds a sleek shiny metallic appearance to your image. If you like this reflective shine effect in your image, try this style.

And last but not least, for a fun touch, Cotton Candy Noir:
