Trench Riot Bayonet
Think of a Gothic trench coat and you think of a rebellious teenager who wants to shock you. Unfortunately it is human nature to stereotype people and we often get it very wrong!
So what is this type of coat, who made it a fashion item, and who wears it now?
What Is It?
It is usually black in color, although it can be seen in other colors such as crimson, or beige snakeskin effect.
The material is most commonly leather or PVC, but can be cotton, faux fur, velvet or suede.
It may be covered in safety pins, studs, rivets, chains, D rings, or zips.
The reverse of the garment may have some detailing on the upper part, such as an image of a skull or skeleton, crucifix or demon.
It may have a long or short cape, or a hood, which is detachable.
Who Made It A Fashion Item?
Back in the late 70's the 'Punk' movement began. Spiky hair, bondage trousers, safety pins through lips, and a long Gothic trench coat, were all trademarks of the 'Punk'.
Soon, the appearance evolved into what was to be known as the 'Goth' image. The 'Goth' would be dressed almost always in black, with black dyed hair, and black makeup, for both males and females.
Who Wears It Now?
Many people have adopted this style coat as their own, including; Heavy Metal music fans, Emo's, Punks, and 'S & M' fans.
The 'Goth's' still have their own trademark overall image and the coat is more associated with them than with any other group of people.
The gothic trench coat is worn by many, but always worn by someone who doesn't mind being noticed.
