Note: Steampunk fashion is a subgenre of the steampunk movement in science fiction. It is a mixture of the Victorian era's romantic view of science in literature and elements from the Industrial Revolution in Europe during the 1800s. The fashion is designed with a post-apocalyptic era in mind. The Steampunk fashion concerns clothing, hairstyling, jewelry, body modification, and make-up.
In 2010, steampunk style entered the high-end fashion market as designer John Galliano brought elements from the trend to his spring haute couture show for Christian Dior. Another designer associated with the steampunk style is Jean Paul Gaultier, who, from the 1990s, integrated elements of this current into his fashion and jewelry collections. In particular, he frequently uses corsets made of different materials in his fashion shows.
