Do It Yourself!

Did you find something that isn't quite gothic, but you want it to be? After buying clothes like this, you can improve them by shopping at a fabric store and buying accents to add to it. If you find a black pair of pants, all you have to do is attach D-rings, grommets, zippers and webbing, and you have yourself a personalized pair of bondage pants! You can do the same to shirts and blazers.

Another thing you can do is take clothes you like the pattern of but hate the color or material. All you have to do is get a seamripper to tear it apart, and use the pieces as a pattern. You then purchase the desired material, and sew it together.

You can do the same if you see something online that you can't afford. keep pictures of it handy and buy all the materials you need to create it yourself.
Warning: I only suggest this if you have experience with sewing!
