All of the online shopping links below go to etsy, an online marketplace for vintage and handmade crafts that we have shopped at on several occasions. Both the bride and groom's attire are coming from etsy vendors.
Below are some common steampunk pieces to complete your costume. You can also find similar pieces on Amazon and on many of the steampunk shops linked on our steampunk page (and below).
What you see on etsy today may be gone tomorrow. But vendors are also generally happy to do custom orders if you contact them through etsy.
Oftentimes searching for steampunk pulls up lots of great stuff, but you can also search for things like "Victorian vests" and get great basic pieces to start with. Then just add goggles!
Common steampunk archetypes are shown on our steampunk page. If you want more inspiration, check out the Pinterest boards in the side bar to the right of this page!
Other Steampunk Shops
If you're comfortable buying from one of the places below, you may also find these links helpful. We've bought from etsy and Amazon for steampunk plenty of times, but haven't tried any of the shops below.
