Mine is just a simple aristocrat one, and it is shown above. The others are a steampunk pirate and a steampunk inventor. I think my favorite part of making these was making the top hats

Nice job on the costumes, Elvira.

Cedar Point had a steampunk walk-through this last year during 'Halloweekends', which was really interesting. Also, the bridge that connected part of the park was crawling with monsters, some of which were nearly that aesthetic (raven-masked, top-hatted, wearing corsets, etc.). A couple that lives near my friend are into the subculture, dressing that way on a regular basis, from what he's said; all the people that I've seen while over there have been totally normal so far, though

Personally, I think that it is a very cool vibe (then again, I love Victorian things to begin with...).
