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.
