Catholic Core

Catholic core romanticizes Catholic imagery, building an aesthetic out of rosaries, Virgin Mary iconography, and church visual language, and it blends spiritual devotion with fashion in ways that are sometimes controversial. Modest midi or maxi dresses are the core garment. Rosary beads get worn as jewelry, alongside crosses on necklaces. Chapel veils cover the head. Peter Pan collars, loafers, and dark or jewel-toned fabrics complete it.
