Following on the heals of our last post regarding SteamPunk fashions, we figured we’d talk about some of the interesting fashions we’ve seen on the web combining Victorian design with shiny vinyl fabric<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Black<\/a>To the left is an 18th Century Countess gown made from shiny black pvc fabric featuring an under corset, underskirt,\u00a0 overdress, and pocket hoops to hold the dress out on the sides.\u00a0 This was produced by battyazac on Etsy<\/a> and is described by her:<\/p>\n

“The corset is made in the 18th century conical style which gives maximum cleavage, and is fully steel boned. Laces closed up the back, and has straps with adjustable lacing. The underskirt ties closed at the back waistband and is made of yards and yards of pvc fabric. The overdress is poly boned for shape and support, laces closed up the front, has elbow length sleeves with a scalloped flounce lined with black lace, and a mega full skirt. The pocket hoops are made of satin and have hoop boning for shape.”<\/p>\n
