Steampunk Fashion

Steampunk fashion has made quite an impact on the Threadbanger site with a whole week dedicated to it. Steampunk is a subculture of fantasy and speculative fiction in which the steam technology and style of the Victorian era combine with inventions of the modern day technology. This lifestyle is both very futuristic in the sense of innovation, yet retro in fashion and materials used.

This week on Threadbanger, you’ll find 4 tutorials on how to re-create steampunk fashion and decor.

Steampunk Goggles :: Steampunk Gloves :: DIY Terrarium :: Steampunk Outfit

Also, the good folks over at Indy Mogul made a DIY Steampunk binoculars video.
