If you are not familiar with the steampunk movement, the all-knowing Wikipedia defines it as a “sub-genre of science fiction and sometimes fantasy that incorporates technology and aesthetic designs inspired by 19th-century industrial steam-powered machinery.”

I always admired the complexity of steampunk outfits. The elegance of the Victorian era fashion blended with roughness of industrial elements and steam technology appeals to my love of style-mixing. And the attention to details in these costumes is really something to applaud. So this year I’ve decided to test my skills at putting together a steampunk outfit for Halloween. And few hours of work later, here it is…

Happy Halloween everyone!
