Description At Steampunk World's Fair in NJ this past May, Laura and I decided to pump out some Steamy formal wear.

Now I know this isn't the best picture ever, but it's a nice shot of the outfit for sure. I went with a gorgeous blue silky taffeta I've been sitting on for years, and I'm so happy that I decided to use it for this! Color is just gorgeous.

I made the apron, bustle, bustle pillow, shrug, and overskirt. Blouse was bought and the hat and corset were gifts from a dear friend of mine, Katherine. <3

Hope you like it!

xoxo

Really nice work! The pre-existing pieces and the ones you made really work well together. Did you use any particular pattern for what you did make?

Thanks! The shrug and bustle were just made up off the cuff. The bustle apron and skirt were from an old Simplicity pattern of a Victorian bustle dress that I edited and changed a bit. <3
