History

The term 'Cybergoth' was created in 1988 in Berlin, Germany by the Games Workshop, for their role play Dark Future, the fashion style did not emerge until a decade later. Valerie Steele quotes Julia Borden, who defines cybergoth as the incorporation of industrial aesthetic elements in a style associated with "Gravers". Gravers hybridize "the British Raver display and the German ClubKid look with a spin 'freak show'." The combination of German and Austrian styles began in 1999. Borden shows that initially hair extensions and bright fishnets did not fit into gothic fashion, but in 2002 "rave elements of clothing were replaced with Industrial-influenced accessories, such as glasses, reflective clothing, and mostly black clothes. "Steele summarizes:

Nancy Kilpatrick points out that David Bowie's appearance in the 1970s was an early inspiration for this style, and that Fritz Lang Metropolis provides a prototype for cyberspace aesthetics.

Mode

Cybergoth Mode combines rave, rivethead, and goth modes, as well as inspirational drawing from other science fiction forms. Androgyny is common. This style sometimes features a brightly colored or fluorescent color-reactive color, such as red, blue, neon green, chrome, or pink, arranged with basic black gothic clothing. Glossy matte or black materials such as rubber and glossy black PVC can be mixed and matched in an attempt to create a more artificial look.

The black-and-monochromatic juxtaposition can take many forms, including brightly colored hair and make-up, cybernetic patterns like live LED circuit boards, body modifications, gas masks and goggles (especially aviator-style), usually worn on the forehead or around the neck is not on the eye. The most common use of theme colors is hair or eye makeup. Artificial or "fall" hair is sometimes used to create this extra effect. Waterfalls can be made from a variety of materials, from yarn to fluorescent tubes to electrical wires. Popular club fixtures for cybergoth include tight black pants, tight black vests or shirts cut from torn, dense or nets, fluffies, resembling costumes from a 19th century Gothic novel or early black and white horror films from the mid-20th century. Companies that specialize in styles include Cyberdog (UK), DANE (UK), Pen & amp; Lolly Clubwear (UK), Lip Services (US), and Diabolic (CA).
