front apron snaps off, box pleats, contrasting fabric inside the pleats. based on the x-kilt pattern

Nice.

In this opinion, in our tragic age of blue jeans and tee shirts, Steampunk is SO refreshingly retro-fantastic-hip!

I like the choice of the clockworks pattern in the under pleats. Got me to do a double take

Find the right dial - It's always beer thirty!

James said it... I dig Steam Punk.

When you add a kilt to the mix, it takes on a cool ruffian look that stands out from all the common trousers. I'd be interested in seeing you complete look Kelt, please post up fotos when you get in character.

well now, I'm just venturing into steampunk. so what do you suggest to complete this look? I'm thinking a dark shirt with a subtle pattern or stripe, vest. any other ideas?

Poofy shirt w/ sleeve garters, thinking tan would look cool w/ black vest and pocket watch. Some tall boots. Any you gotta get a derby.

This is not totally SteamPunk, but with a few accents "goggles, weapon & gizmos" it would work.
I have since acquired a shoulder holster and a funky brass looking pistol... looking forward to the next SP show in October
