Goth outfit or gothy costume?

Can you tell the difference between a Halloween witch costume and a genuine goth outfit? Well, put your goth radar to the test on this post from Coilhouse and pick out the costumes from the outfits.

I consider myself to be fairly well-aware of goth style and always thought that I've been pretty good at differentiating between goth chic and Hot Topic clearance rack crap. Okay, I admit... It looks like I'm wrong. I think I only got three out of the eight answers right. Time to throw aside my bat wings and hang my head in shame.

Who can really blame me, though? Some of these are too outrageous for any self-respecting goth to wear out. I mean, a witch's hat? Seriously? If one must go for the goth look, keep it sleek, keep it classy, keep it dark. Lose the dreads and scary platforms.
