SteamPunk a blast from futures past. Or past futures...something like that.

December 6th 2009 22:44
Do you even feel you want to be retro, but still feel a little lost without high-tech gadgets in your pockets? Than you might be a fan of Steampunk. Steampunk is an amalgam of the early part of the industrial revolution meets the Flash Gordon era of science fiction(Think League of Extraordinary Gentleman or Skycaptain and the World of Tomorrow.) Steampunk clothing combines vintage styles with mechanical chic to really set it off.

If your have the money you can even outfit your home with some impressive, and very expensive hand-made Steampunk hardware. How about a steampunk keyboard for your PC? Yep, they got that.

Why stop there? How about a complete Steampunk computer system?

Wow. That's some fancy gadgetry. What if your not really into gadgets, but you love to dress up? Steampunk clothing is pretty much DIY, however there are some online clothing stores that may have just what you're looking for. Clockworkcouture.com has an impressive collection of very well crafted clothing in innovative and downright sexy styles.

You can also try steampunkemporium.com Which has a well crafted webstore with whole outfits ready to go and you can by one or more parts, or the whole outfit with just a couple of clicks. Fancy.

If you have anymore questions about steampunk remember, google is your friend. However I would recommend starting at Wikipedia for a nice overview of the genre and it's fans.
