Eric Draven’s attire in the 1994 film The Crow consists of a long black leather trench coat, black leather trousers, a sleeveless fishnet shirt, and boots, completed with pale face makeup featuring black stylized eye makeup and lipstick. This distinctive appearance visually communicates the protagonist’s resurrected state and quest for vengeance.
This iconic ensemble’s influence extends beyond the film itself. It became a recognizable symbol of the gothic subculture and influenced fashion trends in the mid-1990s. The visual impact contributed significantly to the film’s cult status, solidifying its place in popular culture. The design’s blend of gothic aesthetics and punk rock elements created a powerful visual representation of the character’s pain and power.
