This is a list of the most popular types of aesthetic clothing for those who are into aesthetic fashion. But before I start, I like to recall that the meaning of aesthetics is much wider than only fashion trends and outfits.

Aesthetics is a visual tool to help us identify things we truly love, regardless of what the Kardashians are wearing or of what is on the Vogue cover.

Everyone can wear aesthetic clothing


Black, Asian, plus size women, and every kind of woman in the world made a huge impact in the fashion industry by owning the power to create Instagram profiles wearing aesthetic outfits. All these aesthetic lifestyles made other women feel seen and belong in a way that we definitely didn’t before social media.

As a black/Latina girl myself, the feeling I got was ¨This is so beautiful and magical, like in a Disney movie. This girl with a gorgeous pink feed and flowy dress with 50,000 followers and curly hair is brown like me. I feel represented. I can be a Disney princess too¨. With this huge change in the form of how the public consumed fashion, in a much more accessible way, the industry had to rethink and adapt.

Aesthetics is a visual tool for every woman that expresses certain lifestyles, and that extended to fashion.

Why am I creating this aesthetic clothing list?


I started this magazine focusing on organizing beauty, decor, and fashion by aesthetics with a big purpose in mind: to not be just another media outlet desperate for ranking on Google creating shallow and quick articles. For me is really important to actually connect with people and make my content useful, personal, and authentic.

When I saw the new digital meaning given to the word aesthetics for the first time, on Pinterest in 2017, I immediately loved it.

It was incredible how those tiny fragments of random images with similar filters, colors, and shapes could tell me a story in a new, simple, and creative way. It was like a new word for style, or for Tumblr photos, but more fantastic and artistic. It was like ¨Wow, dark academia? So there are actually people who dress and live a little bit like Sherlock Holmes? How cool is that? What seemed possible only in fiction is so much more accessible now¨.

You don’t have to have only one Aesthetic Style


As a graphic designer, I love how aesthetics can guide us toward what we truly love (imagine how sad it would be if all the world was black and white with straight lines?).

Fashion is the most influential expression of an aesthetic, after all, our clothes are one with our bodies. In consequence, aesthetic clothing is a type of visual information to help ourselves and outsiders create impressions about our identities, tastes, and current moods.

And yes, MOODS, is the name of this site and something I truly believe. The aesthetic is not about fitting in a box, it is about pursuing your moods, instincts, and intuition and expressing them with authenticity.

On a cold autumn day, I might feel like wearing a dark academia outfit to go to the movies, a rock aesthetic outfit to a music festival aesthetic, and feel like a baddie femme fatale on a date. For me, aesthetic clothes are like movie genres, we don’t have to like or embrace only one type, it all depends on our mood.

We are complex beings, and our moods change, which means that what we feel changes, and is perfectly fine to express it in different ways.

The Most Popular Types of Aesthetic Clothing


Different than the terms ¨style¨, and ¨Tumblr outfits¨, aesthetic clothing came as a mix of tool and lifestyle that shows that every type of reality is possible and that we can make our favorite fantasies, somehow, real.

So, the aesthetic clothing types below are also a visual tool to determine your aesthetic style. I will write about the main elements and meaning of an aesthetic outfit identity and indicate the link for the complete list of that aesthetic lifestyle guide.

So, I hope the Fashion aesthetic list below is helpful to you. Click here for our list of aesthetics.

Dark Academia


Dark Academia is definitely among the top 3 most popular aesthetics.

Aesthetic Styles that are not so popular but I love


Afro-futurism

Hellenic

Fantasy

Ancient Egypt/Cleopatra


Greek Mythology, TV, and Book Characters Aesthetic Fashion

The first time I discovered the aesthetics universe was through Character’s aesthetics on Pinterest.

I have found many boards with a mix of clothes and things that gave me multiple aha moments that I could actually have a Daenerys Targaryen or Alicia Silverstone on Clueless Fashion style with a modern input.

Taking on character traits that you identify with while embracing an aesthetic is what thrills me the most.

The Greek Gods and Goddess are definitely becoming a trend. I have been seeing some early adopters posting a ton of stuff on Greek mythology aesthetics and I am working on something for this site!

So. this was a long list, where I didn’t mention every aesthetic because they are so many. The aesthetic can also be very very specific. For example, Bubblegun Witch Aesthetic, and Hermione Granger aesthetic.

Perhaps you have an individual aesthetic style, but maybe one day you are in a powerful witch mood for a job interview and the other week you just want to express your girly girl side through your pink and soft outfit at a birthday party.

So, it is important to remember again that you don’t have to have only one aesthetic style, and that fashion aesthetic clothing is not meant to fit anyone in a box. It is a tool to get closer to an imagined lifestyle when you have financial and environmental conditions for doing so.
