Steampunk kilts

[Stratherrick]

Hi, all!

In recent times I've discovered the world of steampunk. Aye, even as age 50 fast approaches (I'm young at heart)! If you do a Google or a Wiki, let alone a Youtube, you'll see that it's all about a retro look at fiction, art, music and fashion. Much of it's lead is taken from a world where steam was king, most often the Nineteenth Century, and brings it into the 21st!

As for kilting, I've always admired the modern fabrics and designs used by some. I wonder if this example of how adding some pieces that are 'made to last' (a key steampunk mode) grabs you:

Here's steampunk band, Abney Park, with one of their violinists clearly wearing a kilt at 2:10:

Apologies for not being able to put up an actual picture as I've lost the link telling me how to do it.

Any takers?
