SteamPunk

What is SteamPunk... ??? :) The best way to describe it is the Victorian Era gone Punk with science fiction and fantasy thrown in .... :)

It is very trendy and hip and people can get deeply immersed into the Genre' even dressing up in the fashion. Let's share links and pictures dedicated to "SteamPunk..."

The movie that best represents this "Style" is The Wild Wild West

20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is a great example of the inspiration for Steampunk too...

It's Fantasy and science fiction during the Victorian era... :)

Steampunk....I think H.G. Wells and like posted above Jules Verne.

On sites like Etsy and ArtFire try typing in "gothic lolita" and "loligoth" into the search bar and see what comes up. Last years SteamPunk Convention took place in San Francisco if I remember correctly. Canada has a SteamPunk Canada site on Facebook for those interested in this genre who live in the land of the Maple leaf and Mountie.

Yes... :) It's very hot on Etsy especially with the 20-30 something crowd. :)
