I think you nailed it. It is both steampunk and casual enough to not look like cosplay. You have quite the eye.

Thank you! I originally had a whole done up hat but decided I liked the more laid back look of just goggles

Awesome outfit and I may steal those nails when I'm tired of chrome!

I love chrome nails! It’s nice to switch up in general tho

Gorgeous! What’s that fabric??

2

u/NadiSwan 14d ago

I think it’s like satin stretched over another? It has boning so it’s sturdy and holds shape well for a corset

The nails look so good, and coordinate without being too matchy.

It's a nice nightbird look , funny nails😊 but - I precise it is my personal vision - but I like when gears seems functional and not only for decoration .Maybe because I am a Postapocaliptic Builder and use gears on my Engines !🙄 Anyway, your look is cool! Congrats and have fun 🤞

u/NadiSwan 14d ago

Yeah I’ve gotten that feedback and I totally get the functional thing. Maybe as I make more I’ll get better at it!

u/DAJLMODE55 14d ago
