I think Goth found its way again once Emo came along and sucked out all of the boring trads that were diluting Goth to begin with. Certainly a lot of what was being passed of as Goth was more Emo (muh gatekeeping), but it's still possible to carry the Goth look well now (I know an early-20's Zoomer who is about 90% Goth, 10% Emo, and she wears the look extremely well).
