The concept board, with a little room on the left to add extra inspirations/changes. |
The shirt is a grey cotton (breathes!) and the sleeves are light-as-air black chiffon. |
I am in LOVE with this suiting. |
Various and sundry trims |
Not sure if I'm going to stay with pewter or change to brass/burnished gold. I have a while before I have to make a decision. |
The honeybee holds a sentimental significance for me. This will go at the collar closure. |
Double buckles will match the ones on my bodice. |
I want a mini top hat kinda like this one, but mine will have more gears and a set of Brass Goggles. |
Looks like a great idea board. I love staem punk...ever since my 31 year old son told me what it was...
ReplyDeleteI've only recently discovered steampunk and have fallen in love with it. This looks like a fab costume

Steampunk is a growing trend... though I hesitate to call it that, because I have a sneaking suspicion it has been around and will continue to be around no matter what happens in the whims of the public/mainstream. But there is money to be made on custom costumery if one has the skills, and I aim to acquire those skills both in quantity and quality. ASAP. :)
ReplyDeleteI see you can now buy cogs and whatnot by weight on ebay quite cheaply as findings!
