Hipsters co-opted this style and mall goths co-opted emo

Like 2003/4. You look at bands who released their debuts around this time like Hawthorne Heights and Funeral for a Friend and they look like a midpoint between nerdy yet normie 90s emos and androgynous, faux-goth 00s emos. Then when MCR got big the transition was complete.

To be fair, some of the traits were already there in the OP pic, such as the converse and the side-swept bangs.

My Chemical Romance was essentially the initiation of the transition into a goth aesthetic for the so-called Emo movement, as far as I am aware

not all emos even looked like this, Conor Oberst for example is one of the symbols of midwest emo and he didn't dress like a dork
if anything his style was just indie

After the 90s, thats the midwest emo, then the mall emo hottopic look got popular
