These eco-goth fashion inspirations, which range from earthy witch lookbooks to edgy greenery accessories, are inspired by society's deep relationship with nature. Eco goths are steadily emerging as fashion's next style-setters, following in the footsteps of cyber and heath goths. They believe in living a low-impact life and using alternative materials for their clothes and accessories. Eco goths are usually into natural things like trees, flowers, and other organic shapes. They also tend to use more brown and black colors rather than bright shades. Finally, they often include some type of metal in their clothing or jewelry - such as titanium or copper - to reduce its impact on the environment. People sometimes confuse eco goths with hippies. However, eco goths use modern technology, just not toxic ones. They also prefer handmade items instead of clothes purchased at mainstream stores. Finally, eco goths are about being sustainable and aware. They try to use resources wisely by buying second-hand or even old clothes, and they avoid wasting food by eating everything on its plate. Also, they promote animal rights by wearing clothes made from fur or using leather in their shoes. At the end of the day, eco goths are just like any other goths - they just think and do differently. Eco goths were first created in 2003 by Johan Gustavsson of Sweden.
