Dark Academia

Dark academia is a scholarly aesthetic that romanticizes classical education through tweed, libraries, and Gothic architecture, rising on Tumblr in the late 2010s around intellectualism and literary tradition. Tweed blazers are the emblem. Turtleneck sweaters go underneath. Plaid trousers cover the bottoms. Trench coats layer over the top. Oxford shoes go below, with leather messenger bags and dark neutral layers throughout.
