🦇 HOT NEW LESBIAN PARTY: GOTH NIGHT 🦇
This October, Hot New Lez is embracing the dark side, and leaning alllll the way into our formative goth-girl obsessions! Slip into black lace & smudged eyeliner, rip your fishnets, & stomp in your chunkiest combat boots. Dress like your first goth crush, dance like you’re casting a spell, and brood like your journal depends on it ;)
Not sure what to wear? Here’s your sapphic goth mood board! 🥀
>> LOOK INSPIRATION >>
🔮🌙Witchy Lesbian Realness
Was The Craft your queer awakening? Same. Black sweaters, plaid skirts, chokers, and that “I definitely have cast a spell” energy. Layer silver rings, smudge your eyeliner, and bring out your inner Willow Rosenberg energy.
🖤🛒Hot Topic Mall Goth
Dress like you’re still on Tumblr. Side-swept bangs, Tripp bondage pants, studded belts, eyeliner & sharpie nails. It’s 2007, you’re gay, and you’re crying at Warped Tour.
🧷🔥Punk Rock
From Siouxsie to Paramore! Think fishnets, chains, safety pins, ripped tees, and smear on that lipstick like you just made out in the bathroom stall.
🌸 Pastel Soft Goth
You’re just too cute to wear all black - grab your lace chokers, oversized bows, it’s UwU energy with a gothy twist.
🦇🌹Vampiric Seductress
Elvira, eat your heart out cause Anne Rice could never! Think blood-red lips, velvet corsets, lace, high collars and that hungry look in your eyes ;) Make Morticia Addams proud!
⚙️🕶️Industrial Dyke
All black everything, PVC, harnesses, leather, stompy Demonia boots, you’re cool enough to skip the line at Berghain.

This event is being held on the stolen, ancestral territories of the Musqueam, Skxwú7mesh-ulh, and Tsleil-Waututh nations. As we live and organize queer space as settlers on these lands, we have an obligation to continuously work to repair harms perpetrated upon Indigenous communities, presently and historically. The Birdhouse strives to work with and give back to Indigenous communities in all that we do. Partial proceeds from this event will be donated to the Downtown Eastside Women’s Centre.

SAFER SPACES POLICY:
We have a zero tolerance policy for oppressive behaviour in all its forms -- including but not limited to cultural appropriation, misogyny, transphobia, racism, fatphobia, and ableism. NO TERFS, NO SWERFS.
__________________________
BUDDY SYSTEM:
The Buddy System is a grassroots effort to combat rape culture and enhance the safety of our queer events. CONSENT IS SEXY -- AND MANDATORY! Buddies will be wearing **NEON T-SHIRTS**. Our Buddies are NARCAN trained, and are carrying sealed water bottles, condoms, lube, granola bars, tampons, and more. They will run interference if someone is receiving unwanted attention, can help folks in need find a way home, and generally serve as go-to support people should any problems arise.
