H - Shirts

J-rock meets street clothes. Here we see another innovative creation by h.NAOTO. Everything he's done is out of proportion and mixed fabrics strewn together to create a fantastic everyday outfit.

This outfits shows a combination of gothic with plain long sleeve shirt design. Note the frills on the collar. Simply beauty. It doesn't give too much of a girly vibe, instead it enhances the long sleeve shirt with a more punk-in look.

Another magnificent piece. The black and white strips, coupled with the safety pins and cutsews on the shirt enhances a gothic punk look. If Mika Nakashima had worn this during her NANA movie, I'm sure this would be a major bestseller. Even if she didn't, this is one of my favorite shirt pieces from h.NAOTO.

I hesitated to choose this in my must-have look from h.NAOTO's H collection. For one thing, I'm a bit skeptical over the idea of the corset and corsage-looking as a shirt piece. However, after consideration, I went ahead with the idea. 

This is an exceptionally bold and unique piece as it's not easy to sink into the mind of the buyers. h.NAOTO does however, bring about a sense of hermaphrodite with it. Dual gender. The shirt is a piece design for women, yet the length of the collar and the pattern gives a very masculine approach. Simple delicious. xD

Another interesting piece. It suits petite small breasted figures. The cross on the front however, is dismal and if it wasn't there, I'd say it'd have been on one of my must-have list.

This pink shirt is lovely. Shocking pink with a dash of chains, gives such a gothic feel that it shiver me to the bones. This punk style will never die out for the time being. ^^

These are so simple that I can't believe I chose them as one of my many must-haves in h.NAOTO's collection. It's a simple outfit that goes well with any jeans. I prefer both colors since they stand out quite well with them.

H - Trench Coats

Not much long trench coats to discuss in H but these few that I've selected are awesome looking.

One of my top three favorites. I love the details on the left hand shoulder. Marvelous <3>

My next best favorite outfit. The shocking pink dotted stuffs goes well with the coat design, giving it a trendy yet rugged feel to the coat. It gives a slight feminine tone to it which really stands out.

My favorite piece of all. The ruffled joints is so Christian Siriano-ish. h.Naoto definitely pulled ruffles off way long before Christian though, thanks to the whole Gothic hype. ^^

H by h.NAOTO

We begin some of the ladies garments with the line H by h.Naoto.

H consists of several sub-lines known as h.Anarchy, FRILL, h. jelly, petit NAO, Qupid H, h.NAOTO EAST, and Channel H. 

*Qupid H will not make an appearance in my blog as it's meant for kids aged 3-5 years old*

I haven't the faintest ounce in me to re-categorized the sub-lines as when you load the e-shop, they usually send you straight to the main line's full collection site. SO everything posted here will be based on the full collection site. Comprehende? Good. 

Then let the show ROLLLLLLLLLLL.....

h.NAOTO

h.NAOTO has several clothing lines under him, that it'd practically take up all my post bars. 

I'd be limiting 10 garments per post and they'd be categorized by lead brand name, and type of outfit or accessories. Each will be accompanied by a slight comment or two when possible on the garment.

I'd warn everyone in advance though that this will be a severely heavy graphic site due to the amount of pictures uploaded. I apologize to anyone who has difficult viewing the site. It really is hardly possible to cater to everyone's whim and fancies.

Introduction to Gothic Haven

This is a basic archive of my favourite gothic clothing lines, most specifically Alice AUAA and h.NAOTO. 

Both have exceptionally wonderful designs that can be mixed and matched with any type of outfits. They are also one of the more experimental gothic pieces I've ever seen, ranging from casual designs with simple gothic patterns to outrageous designs that plays with lots of fabric.

The reason for establishing this archive database is to catalogue my favorite and unique pieces in hope that someday, someone will buy me these clothing as my birthday present. 

A wishful thought I know, but I'd really appreciate and love whoever who does to bits, probably even willing to serenade in their graveyard for the wonderful present. These are clothes that I swear have never ever been in my reach and are something I'm desperate wanted for quite sometime. 

Regardless of that, I hope you enjoy the catalogue collections and leave a comment or two on which gothic fashion trends should I start cataloging next. It'd give me more space to explore and select wonderful would-be garments for my imaginary wardrobe <3
