The Celebrities…  

 

Our first celebrity is Helen Bonan Carter, she has been in many Steampunk style films such as Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber, Alice in Wonderland, Dark Shadows

She is a brilliant actor and I would say the biggest wearer of Steampunk fashion as a celebrity. Helen has been awarded a CBE for her works and lives and breathes her roles which is mostly fantasy. Regularly seen in public and the every day wearing Steampunk clothing like it was a post apocalyptic world.

In the picture below she is sporting a Victorian style ladies waistcoat, coat with lapels and large cuffs which is a typical look for the era and hairstyle with the intent of hinting Steampunk. All this in a matching grey color popular of the Steampunk palette. 

 

 

 

Here Helen is wearing a lovely black corset over a Victorian elegant looking dress. What tilts the hat to Steampunk most is the mini top hat and sunglasses these are more contemporary additions and the mixing of industrial era and modern is perfect for the aesthetic.

  

 

 Jason Momoa

 

The second celebrity is Jason, more than likely not needing a introduction he has been involved in films such as Aquaman, Conan the Barbarian, Dune.

He loves to dress Steampunk and is often seen out and about with a top hat and a waistcoat. He is a contemporary actor with some great tastes in fashion that he likes to express. 

 In this picture he is wearing a leather waistcoat a popular Victorian material for its practicality at the time and therefore in the Steampunk world. You can see the pocket watch chain hanging down going into his pocket. The pocket watch is one of the main accessories for Steampunk gentlemen, cutting edge technology in the industrial revolution.

The third celebrity is Gaga who loves her glasses and here she looks great in some awesome Steampunk goggles with extra magnifying glasses for looking at all those gems and bonds up close.

Instead of going all out Steampunk Gaga likes to showcase individual items which is still showing a appreciation for the whole fashion and culture of Steampunk and why she is on the list.

 The fourth celebrity who’s whole name is ‘Montague Jacques Fromage’ is a self confessed ‘Godfather of Steampunk Funk’. He is a Steampunk artist singer and all round poster boy that you may or not know.

See the cup of tea he is holding a popular accessory of the Steampunk gent, he knows his stuff. Get a tea cup and keep it in a holster hanging from your belt that is a nod to the Victorian era sophistication, qualities and values. 

 

 

 

 Kate Lambert

 

 

 

 The fifth Kate Lambert is known as “Kato” or the ‘Queen Of Steam’ a British model, fashion designer, singer and entrepreneur. She originated in Wales and moved to the US in 2007 to become a citizen. 

 She is a recognizable Steampunk legend and spends much of her time as a frequent guest speaker at steampunk conventions where you may have seen her. There is no doubt when Kate makes a Steampunk outfit it is Steampunk throwing in popular motifs and tells of the aesthetic.
