We have already posted a considerable list of Steampunk Resources, but this addenda covers some of the retail sources we’ve found. As much as I recommend making things for the good of your artistic soul, not even I cast my own buttons. (It’s on the maybe someday list, but the whole forge/crucible/airship safety issue needs some serious thought!)
Tutorials:
How to Convert an ordinary Suit Coat into a Tail Coat
A Collection of various Tutorials
ThreadBanger’s Steampunk Gloves
ThreadBanger’s Spats
ThreadBanger’s Steampunk Week Outfits (good shirts for men and women, bloomers, but ignore the bustle, it’s terrible)
Try this bustle instead!
Buttons:
Patterns:
Pants that are not shaped like Dockers, vests, ruffled shirts, etc:
Legwear:
Sock Dreams Call them about sizes, they’re very helpful!
Steampunk Clothes:
Steampunk Bizarre especially jewelry and hats
Tutus! (if there’s one thing Steampunk Fashion needs, it’s more tutus)
Many, many links here
A few of these are broken, so try these: Tatterdemalion, Vecona, Veil of Visions, Vilicious, Vintage Opulence, Voodoo Bunny.
