Gothic and Dominant Fashion Tips for Jewelry Accessories

If you seek gothic or dominatrix fashion jewelry accessories for a costume, you should first understand exactly what these fashion styles are. Gothic fashions generally fall into the same category as Victorian and medieval, as these are the basic fashions for this style. Dominant and/or dominatrix jewelry accessories styles are similar to gothic, yet are more focused on control and power. 


  • Visit Spencer's at your local mall or its website at Spencersonline.com. This novelty store has an entire section of gothic fashion jewelry accessories. These jewelry pieces range in price from $5 to $30 depending on the metal in which they are constructed. Gothic fashion jewelry accessory styles generally include silver and pewter. 

  • Shop Hot Topic for both gothic and dominant/dominatrix jewelry accessories. Both fashion styles sometimes lean toward jewelry styles similar to the jewelry often worn by heavy metal bands or as most are called today, death metal bands. Items such as studded neck bands and collars are popular with both fashion styles. 

  • Determine whether laws within your state of residence prohibit shipping from adult novelty and gift websites. Authentic dominant and/or dominatrix fashion jewelry accessories are sold on these websites. Realize however if it is illegal in your state to ship, it is also illegal to possess these jewelry items. For example the state of Alabama prohibits authentic jewelry accessories of this specific fashion style under its Anti-Obscenity Enforcement Act. Individuals who are found in possess of, yes, jewelry that is authentic to this fashion style is subject to a $10,000 fine and could go to jail for one year. A fashion jewelry accessory is not worth one year's tuition to college nor is it worth your freedom. 

  • Shop costume shops for gothic and dominant/dominatrix fashion jewelry accessories. These stores will provide you with jewelry that is similar to these fashion styles but will prevent you from donning jewelry items that are also considered weapons in some geographic areas. Within costume shops these items are constructed of plastic, vinyl or rubber. So basically no one will get hurt and no one is breaking the law.
