Roses, Rumours and Rebellion: Goth-Coded Girls’ Night Watchlist
By: The Lace Ledger Staff
Some nights aren’t meant for restraint – they’re intended for curling up with your coven and cackling over cocktails, pressing play on stories that drip with glamour, chaos and just enough scandal to make you smirk.
From smouldering drama to witchy rites of sisterhood, this watchlist expressly grants permission to revel in excess, sip something spiked and sparkling and watch women seize the spotlight on their own terms.
