Dark Academia

I’m trying to look for aesthetics that might match the ones I’m looking for I have 2 ideas for how I want to dress like and how I might be able to get it (it would be really helpful if you guys listed certain brands on aliexpress taobao Amazon depop ect and maybe some stiles and stores like lewkin)

But the first aesthetic is something like this

It’s a very dark and grunge-ish aesthetic but I want some more keywords that “grunge , Y2K, acubi outfit”

And the second one is

A more soft coquettish style with lots of bows , lace , and light colors like blue, pink , and purple if you guys know some small stores or shops (that aren’t SHEIN, temu, dolls kill , holister, macys, or anything like that than I’d like to know) I’m looking for articles of clothing under 60 dollars because clothes like these are really expensive sadly .·°՞(≧□≦)՞°·. If you know some alternative style stores I’d be happy to shop there ! And I might consider stores like yesstyle (please drop the codes for the clothes you’re talking about)because they usually have more fem clothes there and a lot of Korean influencers shop there if there’s some brands I should look out for I’d also like to know because I highly dislike the thought of cheap polyester clothes in my wardrobe and I hate clothes that start pilling easily(because of sensory issues) so if you have any recommendations please comment I’d be happy to have some help

I used this wiki as inspiration for a lot of their designs/styles. It's been really helpful for character design! :)

Does anyone have any clothing brands or shops that would be good for this aesthetic? I mostly just wear military surplus and would love some good recs

>:)

Does anyone else play reverse: 1999??

I feel like my life is just cottagecore, plant mom, goblincore, dark angelcore, bloomcore and cutecore mixed together with in a little bit of dark academia and Midwest gothic sprinkled into the whole mess.

Hey, I really want to know what my aesthetic is since I can't really tell.

I love Knightcore, Dark Academia, weirdcore, yanderecore, webcore, liminal space and traumacore imagery. I love the aesthetics of Knightcore and Dark Academia, and I love the feelings of weirdcore and traumacore.

I tend to dress very androgynously and wear baggy clothes but if I was more confident in myself and my body, I think I would dress like an e-girl or a goth. I really like dark colors. I am very shy and have a depressed personality, I really love dark themes.

If it was socially acceptable, I would like to wear medieval armors or traditional polish dresses.

My sense of humor tends to match feralcore and femcel weebcore.

My favorite musicians are GHOST and Pals, Vane Lily, RIProducer, Mitski, Miracle Of Sound, Aviators, Nashimoto Ui, Mother Mother

Favorite songs are: Aura by GHOST, I Deserve to Bleed by Sushi Soucy, SCAPEGOAT by GHOST, DEATHBODY by GHOST and Vane (this song is very special to me since it perfectly conveys my feelings of immense depression, nihilism, suicidal ideation and feeling like I should be buried in the ground somewhere.), hanahaki syndrome by Shiki Miyoshino and GHOST, Embers Rise by Miracle Of Sound, Moonlight blue by Miracle Of Sound

Favorite games are: Dark Souls (I love the medieval setting and armors so much, and I love the depressing and hopelessness themes), Elden Ring, Stardew Valley, OMORI

I love drawing (I especially love drawing knights, vent art, gothic stuff), playing games, making music, taking care of my cats

I hope this isn't too long, I just wanted to make it as clear as possible

Hello! I'm called Ji-yeon, and I joined the ''aesthetics'' fandom a while ago. Recently, I've been having a lot of style / aesthetic changes. As always, I was a person who had multiple aesthetics at once, making it hard for me to pick one for a full day, for example. - ,, Today, I thought ''It's enough''. I'll make every single aesthetic I like a part of the every-day things I use, so I just started with my laptop right now. ☆ Therefore, I'll ask for help! Since my aesthetics can vary A LOT, and by a lot I mean anything from Light / dark academia to sanriocore, g0recore, cutecore, to weirdcore, dreamcore and then plain aesthetics, sometimes even alts, I'd need help finding one that would satisfy my needs. Therefore, I'm here to ask this great community for some help. ✧ Since the laptop itself is pretty old and... well, not that modern, it already gives off 2000's vibes. I have sanrio stickers all over, but now I'm speaking about the wallpapers, vibe etc.

So! I must decide. ☆

• Dreamcore / Weirdcore.

• Internetcore.

• That chill Japan early 00's core....

Any other suggestions are happily accepted! I'm glad to hear any opinions regarding how I should style this old brick over here. Thanks! ♡

Like, it looks nice I guess, but it’s not eye catching to me.

A moodboard i made for someone, based on dark academia:

(the quote was a part of the request as well)

I'm new here and I have audhd and I find all aesthetics interesting and I love to make my ocs with that exact aesthetic that I choose and I also have a Pinterest called @yourunfunnygorl101 and I also love kaiju paradise and im a furry and a minor and I also like c.ai so, I hope y'all loved my introduction! :З

It's so cool to finally know what to call those pictures & hobbies I love to do and collect. From dreaming of living in a cottage to appreciating flowers, from believing in happy endings and quiet moments to appreciating the rain, from lighting up a candle while reading believing in Shakespeare's magical words to embracing and loving my whole femininity.

• dark academia

Thankful also for the playlist/s, book/s, and movie/s that's written under each aesthetics. <3
