- Gothic novels possess an everlasting quality that both troubles and fuels the realms of art, film, and fashion. Whether we're delving into the narrative of Frankenstein or immersing ourselves in the iconic world of Bram Stoker's Dracula, the act of reimagining these characters, with elements of romance, darkness, and instant recognition, serves as a method to confront and expel our fears.
It becomes a way to reflect the murky, tumultuous blend of pain and hope that resides within the core of every human being.
Today we'll explore the deep connection between avant-garde fashion and horror films, highlighting their unbreakable link.

Man that scene from the Pulse is still like the most unsettling thing I’ve ever seen
tell me abt it. gave me goosebumps when i was editing it. actually up to this day when the room is dark, i prefer not to stare at it in fear of finding “something” lurking hahaha
probably one of the best fashion content i’ve ever seen :)
Ackkk thank you! my heart❤ Thank u for taking time ❤
Wow. This has got to be one of the best videos you've made. Your knowledge of fashion designers, fashion history, costume design in film and how you weave the disparate themes together is impressive and wonderful. Keep up the great work!
THANK YOU! I appreciate it. Goes to show i am just passionate with anything horror haha although i have to admit i got a bit scared when i was editing some parts of it.
Thank you, Karl! I adore Dracula!! Even had an opportunity to see famous red gown with my own eyes!!! Impressive......
omggg Was it on an exhibit? i love it too!!! especially his hairstyle haha
@@inkarlcerating yes, the exhibition was dedicated to vampires in culture. So they had this masterpiece!!! Happened just right before we were "injailed" for covid. Have you seen the documentary how "Dracula" was shot? Its amazing....
Brutally captivating and a very good tailored narrative. Sharp and cut beautifully.❤
😮😮Thank you! I Could go longer and longer! I really loved the movies I mention. Maybe therell be a part two next time haha
I'm gonna watch this MANY times, maybe a new yearly Halloween tradition
yes pls! haha thank you! I appreciate this so much❤
If an episode could be haute couture this is the one . Intelligent, passionate and inspiring. You have outdone yourself with this one . And I need to rewatch Dracula and the Hunger .
Kristos you have always been my “pusher” thanks for believing in me since say 01. we love u dearly! Thank you for always taking time❤
I feel like you beautifully captured this topic. I have always wondered how these two ideas feed of each other... Keep up the great work.
omg thank u! been planning on making a video like this and im so happy it came into fruition ❤ I heartwarmingly appreciate your time and kind words
Luv the symbiotic relationships between the art forms - the blurring of spectator and spectral lines - Kudos.!
Thank you! love how you phrased it 🖤❤️
great work! one of the best video essays here. if you not only look at fashion, but also try to feel and understand it gets more scary, than some "horror" films. every time i look at early ccp stuff, it gives me shivers
yes CCP ‘s are next level eerie fashion. The true boundary-pushing label ❤
And Thank YOU SO MUCH. I truly enjoyed making this video
Well documented and entertaining, keep up the good work. I really enjoyed it
Ahhh😭😭 thank you. Made my day ❤️🙏🏼
This was absolutely wonderful and inspiring for thought. Thank you. ☠️
Dell! always a pleasure seeing u here. Thank you! Happy Halloween ❤❤❤
So well done Karl 🖤👏🏼🖤 loved seeing all the interesting parallels you made between fashion and cinema. I’m curious to hear your take also on how more musicians have integrated avant garde fashion into their aesthetics, music video concepts, etc
That is such a great feedback! I will jot it on my notes for my next video topic. Thank u so so so much!
@@inkarlcerating yassss 👏🏼 I really hope this video takes off, cuz it’s so well done!
you're so right
Amazing video as always. Beautiful imagery throughout!
Josephhh thank you so so much! Appreciate ya
Excellent work, very well researched and super inspirational. I'd love to see the "footnotes" of all the films you cited here.
omg sorry will definitely update the description box. I was rushing to upload it on YT that i forgot 😞🙏 thank you for the kind words
@@inkarlceratingno worries it certainly wasn't a complaint, more of a request. I will be psyched to see it!
BEAUTIFUL WORK, KARL!! THANK YOU🖤
Oh Rashena! Thank You so much❤❤❤
Incredible analysis. Beautifully done ✨💕
Steven! Thank you❤️❤️🙏
Wow this was well done karl! Extremely informational. Didn’t know that films in horror had so many similarities!
thank you Mikko! it’s a circle hey Happy Halloween❤️❤️❤️
AMAZING WORK!!! 😍😍😍😍
Thank you so so so much🙏🏼
wow!! im so excited that youtube recommended me this video, it is exactly up my alley. im trying to learn more about fashion lately. :) havent watched it yet but i will come back to comment again lol
omg its a pleasure then. thank you for dropping by. let me know which one is your favorite ❤❤
@@inkarlcerating i was so stunned by this video!! it was my first introduction to avant garde fashion and im in love with the concepts. i think this was also wonderfully researched, and all the examples you gave seemed off the top of your head, like you're just so knowledgeable.
my favorites were rei kawakubo's 'monster', and the wicker man inspired works by craig green. seeing fashion that made me viscerally uncomfortable honestly felt refreshing and.. exciting
this connection between horror and fashion is absolutely genius, and i'm so glad you documented it. i also liked how you brought costume design into the discussion as well. all the genres seemed to meld together seamlessly but also super cohesively.
great job with this video :D ill be following for more
@@frutfly Well I am more than pleased that my video was part of this discovery of yours. That was the goal of my channel after all- to share awareness and lend my lens to other people so that they can also appreciate the kinds of beauty I find amusing.
After finishing the video I came to realize that Rei K is definitely the undisputed designer when it comes to horror! Thank you once again xxx
Outstanding video !!!
Marijana❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you
Amaxing video!! Surprised you didnt include the costuming within The Cell (2000) as the costumes share similar themes, motifs and silhouettes as the examples youve given. If you havent seen it, it's worth it for the costuming alone, or in the very least a cursory image search!
I know right! I’ve watched it and I wana re watch it ( 2nd time is always good) but I did posted a few photos. I’m planning on doing a part 2 near halloween lol thank you so much!
Eiko Ishioka is a genius
@@inkarlcerating thanks for taking the time to reply, I am thrilled to have discovered your channel, looking forward to more content and diving in to your back catalogue until then 💜
this is so well made!! i love hearing my two interests (horror and fashion) being discussed together because they intersect in really interesting ways
Thank you so muchhhh. Ive been wanting to do this video since 2021. probably do a part two this Halloween 🙏❤️ thank you
this is my fav video!! ever!!! please make more 🥹
Jenn!!!! youve no idea. makes me happy when you drop by all the time❤❤
Bravo, this is a good one...
Thank you Corod!!! ❤❤❤
Amazing video as usual! Thanks!!! 🖤
omg thank youu!! 😮😮😮
amazing video! where are the images of cdg aw14 from ?
Hello oh those were just from Vogue ( details section) I also source most of my photos on Pinterest
👍👏
Thank you❤❤❤
This was a spectacular production.
Suppose there was a play or movie that was an emerging subgenre of gothic fiction.
What would be the approach for fashion shows, if your idea of the vampire is evolutionary off shoot of vampires that split off from homo sapiens, and blend in with normal society? Often work in jobs other people refuse, so to access to the dead or dying.
Elfen Lied, while not exactly this, poses that question in my mind. Increasingly Im wondering if that show would have as much of an emotional effect without a fashion design team.
That would be an exciting concept. I think so far, Alexander Mcqueen’s fashion shows will always be unparalleled! I wished that avant garde fashion label and houses would take time in storytelling and not just parading clothes.
I will def have to do my homework first and come back to u haha
btw I watched Elfen Lied bec of you! im on episode 3 now
you look like beautiful gorgeous from jimmy neutron... if she was a real person
omg shocking haha i watch jimmy neutron when i was young. i must say i can see what u mean haha prolly should dress up like her next halloween xxx
lol yes im so happy you werent offended. i also loved jimmy neutron, and that would be a killer halloween costume! @@inkarlcerating
