Bedlam Bedlam

Came by here yesterday to check it out and found out they went out of business. Be aware that this store isn’t here anymore!

After speaking to several locals there are not many gothic clothing stores that carry men’s clothing. Obviously you cannot count on the suburbs for having anything like this and the stores in the mall do not count! After researching I found out that Bedlam bedlam did indeed have gothic clothes for men.
There are several different kinds of goth really. The most notable is the frilly kind of goth and the more fetishy, vinyl kind. Steampunk could be considered goth at one point and time but it has gotten so popular these days it really is a thing onto itself.
Bedlam bedlam has the more frilly kind of goth, along with other things. They have impressive and robust vests that you can wear with your black Victorian shirt. They had brown vests too but brown seems more popular with the Steampunks. They had a cool assortment of other shirts and the kinds of pants you do not see often at all.
They have a nice selection of ladies wear as well, lots of beautiful clothes!
They also had a fine assortment of handmade soaps as well!
They lady that helped us was very friendly and knowledgable and while I did not buy anything there on my first excursion there I am confident that I will be back!

As others have mentioned, this store carries a variety of items; yet it doesn’t feel like a scattered set of random «dark» stuff. I know several reviewers have mentioned that they carry plus-​size items but I’m afraid I didn’t find any in the store. Granted, I was there at a very busy time and will need to go back and check again but none jumped off of the racks I pawed through.
Bedlam Bedlam has a nice edge without feeling like you’ve walked into a snobbery-​dispensary, which has happened with failed «dark» stores of yore. Staff are eager to help you and try and juggle everyone at the same time at the busiest of times.
They also carry a few lines of home goods — Villainess Soaps (and scrubs and candles,) Sin in Linen (favorite shower curtain ever,) and BPAL perfumes. If you’re not familiar with BPAL and are looking for a unique scent — go to Bedlam Bedlam and let them help you choose a few to try. Amazing stuff.
Great location, too!

The best place on Capitol Hill to get your pretty black clothing fix!

Lauren helped me tonight, and she was amazing. She knew styles, stories, what goes with what, and made the shopping process fun. Best of all, she worked within my budget, and she set me up with a fantastic set of stuff. I couldn’t be happier, and I highly recommend checking this place out. Very fun place.

This lovely shop offers elegant men’s and women’s clothing, both by brands we know and love as well as several local designer’s creative wares. Bedlam stocks things for beautifucation of your home as well as cosmetics and gothic accessories too. And one of the best features, in my opinion, is that they offer plus sizes as well as traditional sizing!
The shop is nestled just a short bit off Broadway, within shouting distance of Seattle Central and a whole strip of other little shops and eateries. It’s always worth it to stop in, just to see whats new. The owners are constantly working to bring more new and exciting things into the store and I’m always enamored of the styles that come in– if only I had a bigger pocketbook! ;)
Lovely to see an independant shop of this nature open up, and I look forward to many years of gothy-​victorian goodies!

gothic and wicked stuff. but very nice staff.

Cute little shop full of higher end clothing and accessories that any darkling might want or need.
First off, the girl working was sweet and helpful and let us mozey and try things on as needed. I appreciated the lack of snotty or apathetic attitude, and enjoyed actually discussing make up brands and how this one particular dress «makes everyone’s butt look great.»
You have your basics– black tops and bottoms as would be expected. Ruffly and bustly skirts and dresses, corsets, leather doodads and masks, esty-​esque jewelry with skull and steampunk themes, make-​up, random sock bunnies, and a fairly decent looking menswear. As per speciality shops like this there was more women’s clothing than men’s — but all are high quality and well made items. Prices tend to be a bit high — but is to be expected when you are getting items that are better and not as easily found in suburban mall counterpart type stores.

What an awesome shop! If this pace had been around when I was 12 – 15, I would have been in friggin Heaven! As it was, I was already pretty cross eyed trying to get everything in. The ladies working there were very nice, even after I told them I was just looking. Lots of really cool looking bodices, velvet dresses and accessories, and loads of cool little accessories. The hair dye selection was impressive as well.
The prices were a bit on the higher side, but as mentioned previously, were in line for a boutique shop. I don’t know if they still offer it, but when I was there, they mentioned they had a woman who came in Sundays to do tarot readings. Woot!

The perfect little shop of gothy awesomeness.

Seattle has long desired and needed a high-​end purveyor of Goth and Dark couture. Bedlam Bedlam is the answer to prayers and dreams! Their offerings are diverse, growing and carefully-​edited, and the staff is both welcoming and knowledgeable. Don’t miss the in-​store tarot card readings, too!

BedlamBedlam rocks, beautiful store and amazing people!

Congratulations to BedlamBedlam for giving Seattle exactly what it needs, a true alternative store.
Walking into BedlamBedlam is like walking into a fantasy world that carries everything you ever wanted to wear or accessorize with and all of those things that you didn’t know that you needed.
BedlamBedlam carries an array of gothic, steampunk, and alternative clothing as well as their «basics» which include items that anyone that is darkly inclined need to stock up on. They have an impressive selection of tights and stockings as well as one of a kind jewelry pieces and more.
What really impresses me about this store is the attention to detail in purchasing items to sell. As far as I know BedlamBedlam is the only store in the area to carry Heavy Red, Last Wear and Rose Mortem. Some of the other brands that they carry are Jeannie Nitro, Funhouse, Spiral Direct, Manic Panic, and Special Effects.
BedlamBedlam carries make-​up, bedding, stuffed toys, purses, hats, tons of jewelry, leather pieces and lets not forget the amazing clothing that caters not just to goths. There are some amazing pink velvet dresses from Jeannie Nitro that I just loved!
All of the staff here are friendly and very welcoming. I know that BedlamBedlam will be around for a long time.
OH yeah, they also do tarot and rune readings!
