The steampunk style has exploded into the world and is now popping up everywhere. Whether in small ways with just a hint of steampunk or whole outfits that display their steampunk pride, it's everywhere you look.
Steampunk can go from the little things like the design on a graphic tee or the leggings you pull on under a skirt to full fledged costumes, from hats to shoes. The clothes take on a distinct Victorian look, so that in some cases it looks like the wearer has stepped out off the streets of Victorian London and onto the streets of 2013 London.

While some of the outfits are on the conservative end, such as the ones on the left, there are those that take the look of the Victorians and mix it with the revealing aspects of todays society, shown below. Both styles have Victorian elements with a slight edge that the Victorians themselves didn't have. The fashion for men is much more similar to that of the Victorians but still has the edge that's unique to steampunk, as shown below.
Steampunk fashion can be found everywhere. Walking through Camden Market in London leads to multiple booths that have steampunk styled clothes you can buy. There are stores and websites dedicated to steampunk clothes, as well as other steampunk themed items.
