Steampunk clothing style is based on the fashions of the Victorian-era. Generally, Steampunk clothing is reserved for special occasions such as theme parties and conventions, but this style can also be worn as an every-day look.
Those with a preference for the Steampunk aesthetic typically wear clothes in brown, tan, white, and off-white. Grey, black, and olive green are worn for a more militant look.
Some essentials in any Steampunk closet:
- Corset
- Leather harness
- White blouses
- Blouses with jabots
- Long brown skirts
- Skirts with bustles
Other items may include a brown pleated leather skirt, black blouse, striped tights.
