11 Soft Goth Outfits to Channel Your Inner Wednesday Addams

The soft goth aesthetic entered the beauty scene last year alongside the hit Netflix show Wednesday, but this fall, it’s coming into the style space. Similarly to its beauty equivalent, soft goth fashion is all about a subtle approach to all things spooky and gloomy—think lots of leather, black, lace, silver, and gold pieces, all with a feminine touch. Whether you’re building a moody, understated fall wardrobe or want to take a walk on the wild side, the soft goth aesthetic is sure to provide plenty of inspiration for your next looks. Not sure where to begin? Read on for 11 soft goth outfit ideas to help you channel your inner Addams family member this fall.

A Feminine Touch

When Barbie Ferreira isn’t taking our breath away in her carefully curated "Euphoria" outfits, she’s making a statement in real life, and we absolutely plan on copying this soft goth outfit this fall. Pair a dainty tulle midi skirt with a black sequined top, and you’ve got yourself a match made in heaven. Finish off the look with a pearl headband.

Business Goth

Of course, Hailey Bieber would come through with an effortlessly cool soft goth outfit formula. The Rhode founder loves an all-black moment, and we’re taking notes from this business goth-inspired ‘fit. Go for an oversized, boxy blazer and pair it with any short black piece beneath, like a comfy romper. Throw on some black combat boots for an edgy feel to complete the outfit.

Dark and Moody

Yara Shahidi looks effortlessly cool in this ensemble from EB Denim. The combination of the corset and wide-leg pants make for an updated version of the classic Canadian tuxedo, and we love the idea of pairing it with a structured black and gold handbag for a soft goth feel.

All-Black Lace

Bella Hadid was made for the soft goth aesthetic, and we’re living for this all-black number she put together. The key to nailing this look is finding a see-through, lacy dress, like this one from I.Am.Gia. Pair it with a leather bomber jacket and some silver arm candy to nail the moody vibe.

Matrix Vibes

Matrix meets goth with this stunner of an outfit. Supermodel Ashley Graham is our ultimate fall fashion inspo and looks daring in this all-black look. Since leather for fall will always be in, we think a leather trench coat is the perfect starting point for this outfit. Complete the look with some dark denim pants or cargos and your favorite pair of black sunnies.

Daring Cutouts

Willow Smith nailed the soft goth trend in this pair of cutout pants from Stella McCartney, but if that’s not in your budget, we found a similar style from Nasty Gal, which we think embodies the energy perfectly. Pair the statement piece with a black vest and lots of silver rings.

Gloomy Girl Fall

Matilda Djerf of Djerf Avenue is everyone’s fave Swedish style icon, and we can’t get over her gloomy looks for fall, like this goth-adjacent ensemble. To keep things on trend, she wore a pair of Mary Janes from Repetto, completing the outfit with an oversized blazer and black patent leather handbag.

Soft Goth Girlboss

“Maddy knew who she was from a very early age,” and the same can be said of the star that plays the iconic Euphoria character, Alexa Demie. Here, she opted for a soft goth-meets-business getup by pairing an oversized gray suit with a leather vest.

Leather on Leather

Barbie’s America Ferrera knows how to rock a full leather ensemble, and we love how she kept her hair pulled back into a slicked-back bun to keep the focus on the fashion. Go for a leather top and some leather pants to steal her style, and to create even more of a soft goth effect, throw on a black and silver cross necklace.

Graphic Moment

Model Anok Yai is a showstopper in her own right, and this soft goth outfit she posted to Instagram is giving us so much fall inspo. Put on a black graphic tee to start, then add a leather biker jacket. If you love her bag, we found the exact one she’s wearing with silver hardware details.

Capricious Behavior

Sometimes less is more when it comes to fashion, and that’s the exact vibe we’re getting from this all-black outfit. The look consists of a leather jacket, buttoned dress, and booties, plus a bright red baseball cap for a pop of color.
