Steampunk sewing

[blamebrampton]

The festival of knitting is in full swing, but I have a Steampunk party to cobble an outfit together for. It's in a month, and I have the perfect footwear (actually, I have two perfect sets of boots and one ideal set of shoes, I may have a small issue) and a corset and antique watch and chain ... that's it. Four weeks is enough time to pull together a decent outfit, and I have scads of fabric, so I can manage it without spending any extra cash, but I wonder if costuming is enough to give a truly steampunk approach. In short, help!

WOW! Those are all divine. Dior has been so gorgeous this year. And that has settled it: I am not eating again until my arms are that thin! Pass me the dumbells! That hat is exactly the one I want, which is annoying, because I have had two just like it and gave both away when moving countries. Stupid!

The hats are gorgeous. I think I would gladly wear the hat, the leather cloak & boots, and a dress. Sans frills. ;)
