Advantages: Great shop Disadvantages: hmmm none really
...simular shop called "Revenge" The Oasis is one of the most popular shops for people of the Gothis, Punk, Skate etc scene to go and purchase new goods from.
The purchases are quite cheap too! But some items can be pretty dear but they are all god quality items to have in your wardrobe. ♥ Level 1 ♥
When you walk into the shop is level one. Here is home to all the footwear ranges, Mens tops, Levis jeans, Goth style clothing, PVC clothing ... ...hats upon this level.
The Oasis also has its own piercing shop where you can have a wide range of piercings done, or they will simply help you out with a piercing you have already had done.
And why not visit the hairsalon where you can have wild hair and a range of colours within it.
♥ The staff within the Oasis are also very friendly and will assist you with anything from telling you where something is to telling you how good an item of ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Oasis Centre
Advantages: Easy to get to, wide variety, competitive pricing, something for all. Disadvantages: I think it could be improved with having rock music playing rather than radio 1! It is fairly easy to get lost in the first few times, however getting lost in a world of PVC, velvet, and dog collars is not an entirely unpleasant experience!
When Skunk Anansie sung "All I want", she must have been thinking of this place. It has everything for alternatives, all under one roof! From rubber, leather and pvc for the fetishists, to velvet and makeup for the goths, to flashing lights and uv clothing for the cyberchicks, to baggy trousers and crop tops for the skaters.
The variety is amazing, and definately the widest I have found on my travels around the country. For general alternative wear ... ...you don't need to worry about pervy shop keepers offering ways to 'reduce the price' (I think you get the idea!).
It is also competitively priced compared with the rest of the country, north and south. You need to look around the entire place first (and it is massive - 5 floors in total, each with several different boutiques) if you are watching the pennies as the prices do vary greatly between boutiques. (And I would recommended doing this anyway ...

Advantages: Wide range of things that nowhere else sells Disadvantages: It's laid out like a maze
...The Oasis centre is a collection of lots of small shops, almost like an indoor market. The shops sell an extremely wide variety of products including clothes that would make an M&S manager blow a fuse. It’s also opposite the Square Peg for a quick drink after shopping. Fantastic! ...

Advantages: Lots of different, rare and unusual clothing, easy to get to Disadvantages: Quite overpriced for some items of clothing, dark, alot of kids
The oasis is situated on corporation street in Birmingham. So is about a 7 minute walk from the train station. You can get in at either of the two entrances on the first floor, or second floor.
They even have in the oasis a cafe, a t shirt printing place and internet cafe. However it seems a popular place for little kids to walk round, they end up making it difficult to get round at times, and alot hotter.
There is alot of cyber/goth/punk places, ... ...with baggy jeans and cool tops, plus nightmare before xmas stuff. Plus some skater style mens clothing shops. They have quite a few shoe shops also. The best shop is at the bottom floor called Beadasaurus...with lots of cool lil bracelets and everything its great! On the bottom floor they also sell lots of posters, band hoodies and band t's.
The most overpriced shops are the girls ones, a goth/punk shop called anna bee and Fallout. Id also suggest ...

This place is brillaint for your bondage gear. Leather, studs, werid colours of hair dyes all sorts. Situated smack bang in the middle of birmingham its a favourite haunt for goths and heavy metallers looking for dog collars and other essential kit. It is well laid out with good lighting and space to walk. Its been there for about 20 years which is good. There are all different kinds of shops selling loads of things I suggest you check it out as ...
