Fashion is a big part of the emo subculture, as it is a very effective way of expressing oneself. With fashion you can come across as cute, aggressive, shy, flirty, artistic or a myriad of other styles. Which brings me to my topic:

Emo Skirts

What constitutes an ‘Emo Skirt’, you ask? The answer is simple. Any type of skirt that expresses an ideal, or a feeling, which mind sound like a lot for a simple piece of material. But trust me, ‘Emo Skirts’ can be a powerful fashion statement.

Cute Emo Skirts

‘Cute Emo Skirts’ generally consist of a number of layers, frills and bows. They can be any color, but generally pinks, purples, softer colors teamed with lace, ribbons and fluffy petticoats. Emo fashion is generally alternative in appearance, so black skirts can also be considered ‘cute’ if they have the frills and bows mentioned above.

‘Hardcore’ Emo Skirts

‘Hardcore Emo Skirts’ take a number of elements from the goth and punk subcultures/styles such as bold splashes of color teamed with black, chains and jagged asymmetrical hems. They basically say ‘Don’t fuck with me!’ when worn with some chunky platform boots.

Of course, there are no set rules when it comes to the kind of skirt that you decide to wear. And most ‘Emo Skirts’ out there are a combination of elements from all different styles. It all comes down to personal choice.
