I'm starting a series of blog entries where I am inspired by fictional characters, picking out appropriate clothing in an attempt to capture the aesthetic essence of said character. I'll be choosing characters that inspire me personally, but I'd love it if you commented with a suggestion! I'm starting with a childhood favourite of mine - Wednesday Addams.
Wednesday Addams is the perfect little goth girl, in looks and personality alike. She is dark humour personified. To get her evil little girl-look, go for stark white collars on black mini dresses - a 60's silhouette is perfect. Pair with white socks (the kind with white lace and bows) and mary-jane shoes (black. chunky.). Top it off with a smooth, sturdy leather purse or satchel to store your poison, sunblock and horror novel in, or why not a vintage suitcase with suspicious blood stains?
Wear your hair in strict plaits and avoid sunlight at all costs, shielding your self with large black hats, parasols and circular sunnies. In winter, heavy wool coats, velvet capes and black leather gloves are key.
