CIMG5498 Red-and-black with a sequined sash
CIMG5498 Red-and-black color scheme was embraced by a number of the attendees. The costume on the right combines the look of, I guess, an old-timey cabaret with a bellydancer’s sequined sash and lots of fringe everywhere. The person on the right has a steampunky arm brace and the ubiquitous googles on her head.
Seen at the steampunk party at the SXSW 2007. Here is another view of the same two people.
The “Futures Past” steampunk party was thrown by EFF and several other organizations at the SXSW conference on March 12, 2007 at Scholz Garden in Austin, Texas. I didn’t know many people there, so I went there mostly to see the costumes. Ah, the costumes! Unfortunately, I don’t know the names of any of the people I took pictures of. On the technical side of things, Austin’s own Robot Group had an exhibit there, showing many all sorts of new flashing, singing, wiggling mechanical creatures I haven’t seen since their last exhibit.
