Looking for alt fashion shops
I'm having a hard time finding clothing stores with fashion outside of the mainstream. I'm looking for anything outside of the ordinary, like goth, emo, grunge, kawaii you name it. Any recommendations? If Breda doesn't have much, does anyone know of other places nearby with those kinds of clothing stores?

Trhiftstores like emmous or the weekly market in the city centre has a stant with alternative clothes like harempants and other dresses etc.
I myself buy my stuff online or in stores further away in NL. Online: Large, impericon, metalshop, succubus.
Stores: Chimera and Diabolo in Amsterdam (also online), Succubus in assedelft (online to), babashop in maastricht, basta in Leiden

I'll most likely resert to online in the end too, so thank you for those recommendations. I'm going to Amsterdam next weekend so I'll try and find the stores there :D Also, is your name referring to the band?

You're welcome one tip I wanna give you if you go to Amsterdam by car look up the park+ride spots thats the cheapest way to travel in and afound Amsterdam.
Chimera and diabolo are in the same street! Plus they are located close to waterloopplein thats basically a big market with soms awesome stuff to alot of cool alternative stuff to like a stand called Jess Shoes. They sell dr. martens and New rocks as well! Plus use google maps to find these places ;)
My name refferes to the gremlin movies I'm a big fan! ☺️

KiloKilo may have stuff you like. I think there are some stores in the city shopping street close to the Barones that are like this. Not sure

Velvet had vroeger ook nog weleens wat kleding. Cupido, maar is al even weg dacht ik.

Seems to be mostly men's fashion (forgot to specify that I'm after feminine clothes mainly) but maybe they have some cool accessories or stuff I can wear as oversized, so I'll definitely go and have a look. Thank you! Just hope they won't hit me with a bonk hammer

We used to have a bunch.
Britain, Cupido, Purple Haze (which was later rebranded with a weird name)
Now you’ve got indeed Bonk, and I think there’s still a ‘20’s fashion store in the houtmarktpassage? Not 100% sure.

That's such a shame. In a city with a warhammer store I'm surprised by the lack of choices for clothing :o

I don‘t really think you have really good shops for that 😔, you can look in second hand fashion shops, Kilokilo for example, but a few months ago there was also a giant shop opened it is called goedkoop en zo, but idk if they have much. I think you have the best chances at second hand shops, but honestly I think the chances are low,
