But Where Are The Goggles?

Here’s a quick link for you all… YIPE! Magazine, a costume fanzine, just came out with an issue on Steampunk costuming!

It features a wide variety of inspiring steampunk costume pics, examining each and asking that all-important question: Does it have goggles? (Hint: Not every costume needs them!) There are also some lovely articles about historic costuming and (of course) the punk in Steampunk, and a short story. Definitely worth a look for those of you interested in costuming!

    Dunno about not needing goggles. I’m personally a fan of the monoggle. Working up one for my own costume, actually…

    I do not own, nor have ever worn a pair of goggles. I don’t see the point in it. The only reason I’d ever get myself a pair is if I needed them for casting metal, or something else where I was likely to loose an eye.

    I work in a factory – (well, in the office of the factory) but I visit the production floor where such goggles would actually come in use everyday.

    Allegra, you’ll need a pair when you get your own vintage motorbike!

    And, on the day when I meet someone who wants to buy me this or possibly this, then I shall wear them with pride!

    The Crusader is a great choice–Henry’s former mechanic had a souped-up Continental GT, half Henry’s engine displacement, and used to ride circles around me and Henry.
