The Baftas in London showcased a striking goth-inspired fashion trend, with many stars opting for black attire. This year’s ceremony saw a prominent use of dark colors, reflecting a revival of gothic style within the fashion industry.
Timothée Chalamet made a notable appearance wearing a black cropped jacket paired with matching trousers and shoes from Bottega Veneta. His outfit was inspired by rock icon Mick Jagger, aligning with the event’s overall theme.
Zoe Saldana also embraced the gothic aesthetic, donning a dramatic black gown with a frilled neckline designed by Saint Laurent. Cynthia Erivo’s lace dress from Louis Vuitton and Gwendoline Christie’s black satin dress with torn sleeves by Giles Deacon further contributed to the evening’s gothic flair.
In menswear, Jeff Goldblum stood out in a tuxedo adorned with iridescent black and green feathers from Loewe. Will Sharpe complemented the theme with his all-black ensemble and classic movie star sunglasses.
While black dominated, other colors made appearances. Ariana Grande opted for a sugary pink Louis Vuitton dress, while Colman Domingo showcased a unique menswear look with scarf print lining and studded gloves.
The resurgence of goth fashion, which dates back to the 1970s, has gained traction recently, influenced by contemporary pop culture, including the Netflix series ‚Wednesday‘ and new music from bands like The Cure. The trend was also observed at the recent Grammys, hinting at a broader shift in red carpet fashion.
As the fashion world anticipates the Oscars next month, it remains to be seen if this gothic trend will continue to influence celebrity styles.
