This Steampunk design is a favorite of mine for many reasons, one of which is that it’s just so flattering! It’s one of my own designs, adapted from a jacket look I saw on a website for Steampunk fashions. There doesn’t seem to be a fabric I can choose that doesn’t look great in this design. This fabric was a very nice jacket I found at my local secondhand store (my favorite place to shop!), but it was too snug for me to wear in its original style. So I took it apart and made this vest instead. I debated whether to leave the sleeves on it or not, but finally decided I’d get more wear out of it as a vest. I love how the lines of the back of the vest vee toward the waist, making a slenderizing silhouette.
