If you’re trying to build an alternative fashion Sim, then why settle for basic eyeliners? Instead, MaruChanBe’s Kiro eyeliner adds a unique glow to these Sims, complete with dark reversed crosses that have been painted on under the eyes. As seen in the example image above, this eyeliner looks brilliant alongside a head of eye-catching hair, an array of piercings, and notable statement accessories.
Goth Choker
Speaking of statement accessories to help complete your alternative fashion looks, this Gothic Choker by Suzue is an absolute classic. We’ve all seen it before on that classic, typical gothic stereotype character – particularly in media such as TV, cartoons, and video games. This is the type of accessory that can complete almost any alternative outfit – such as band tees and jeans, or crop black dresses and combat boots. Therefore, players should look to add this one to their collection sooner than later.
