The style of EGA is centered around the mature decadence of the late Victorian era, with emphasis on simplicity and elegance. It is an androgynous style consisting of black, white, and dark colors, with lace trimmings, and is completed with black, clunky boots and heavy makeup. Generally speaking, EGAs use white makeup to get a pale complexion.

Accessories are also essential items in achieving the EGA look. They include corsets, gloves, conspicuous pocket books, stockings, bows and top hats.

Unlike EGL, and indeed, Lolita in general, Elegant Gothic Aristocrats wear long skirts or pants, fitted jackets, and long sleeved tight-fitting shirts.

Also unlike EGL, EGA outfits do not HAVE to be moi-meme-motie. Mana created the style, but it really just a variant of victorian goth and as such clothes from other lolita/aristocrat brands and thrift stores are perfectly acceptable.

EGAs listen to victorian-inspired goth and VK bands, such as versailles.
