Dark Side Of The Moon — Local services in Hamilton

Adore this place! I was so excited for it to open; and I came in today for my birthday and it did not disappoint. I’m a biggggg girl, normally between a 3xl to 4xl depending on the brand. Being plus size and goth is not a fun combo most of the time! But I’m very happy to say that they had a lot of absolutely lovely pieces in my size, ones that I am very excited to be wearing soon!! They also have pretty consistent sizing throughout the store, which is refreshing!! It’s obviously a bit more in the pricey range, but if you’re a goth like me who likes to slowly build your closet over time it’s totally worth it. The lace on the skirts and the feel of the fabric is genuinely soft and comfortable against your skin; you won’t be risking the irritation that you’d get with a lot of cheaper goth clothes from low budget brands, so I consider it money well spent. Especially if you wear your goth clothes often like I do, it’s better for your skin and your overall comfort. The atmosphere is lovely as well, stepping into the back of the store is like snuggling up in a big coffin. The kitties are a lovely touch, playing with me and my friends as we shopped around. And the music is obviously awesome. The range in gothic style was also very refreshing; everything from office goth to romantic goth, From lace to leather, club to casual, they had a good variety of it all. I am most definitely coming back for the accessories, the purses, jewelry, and belts were so cool and I feel mad at myself for walking out without more of them!! The staff was also very kind, they didn’t even know it was my birthday but they were super sweet and stopped by every so often to make sure we were finding things we really liked (and believe me, we were.) I’ll definitely come back...

Absolutely amazing place! I came here looking for a dress for my wedding reception (our ceremony is pretty "alternative") and had heard about this shop just opening from their other location in Bridgewater Falls (Sterling Seraph, also a wonderful shop). They did not disappoint.

I'm an "elder goth" and have worked in retail myself, so believe me when I say this place has the goods! The atmosphere is comfortable and inviting, not at all intimidating - you aren't afraid to ask for assistance, and you genuinely feel welcome. There's even ample seating in a lounge area if you have folks who might need a break or want to wait while you're browsing. The selection and merchandise is absolutely the best quality I have seen in a long, long time. This is not an Amazon drop ship or fast fashion situation, it feels very curated and the brands themselves are higher end specialty labels. It feels kind of "elevated" as an experience; I found things that were elegant as a 39 year old woman, and could also see my 17 year old stepdaughter shopping here too. The prices are also right on point; I found my perfect dress, AND an underbust waist cinch in red velvet together for under $120.

Overall great experience, and I will become a regular customer. I cannot wait until they get their next...

Listen! If you want to witness and see for yourself how one woman can pursue her dreams and expand and grow in such a magical unstoppable way, this is the place to go to!! The extension of seraph By the river and sterling seraph, the never ending magical journey of a unique and one of a kind dream that came to life regardless of the hardships and tests it was put through, the unbelievable beautiful and most experienced team and tribe that I call my family, just like many others do as well!! Like a fruit tree that grew stronger and continued to bare fruit no matter the storms it endured! And yet another branch grew and it's the dark side of the moon. For all your Gothic needs and...
