My Steampunk Bustle

Ok so i ot some super pretty taffeta from my local fabric shop and i made my Bustle.
Although im now super concerned its way too Elegant for my character, and perhaps a bit too burlesque looking?
What do you guys think?

I think that looks stunning, I really love it! I don't think it looks burlesque, unless you wear it with a burlesque outfit

awh i love this ^_^ did you follow a threadbanger tutorial for this? I vaguely recollect one that was similar. Great job though - looks ace!

No i actually used this tutorial on here
Bustle
Only i didnt use the skirt part, just the bustle bit.
Its all coming together bit bybit

Wow thats looking ace!

Totally bookmarking that link for my own use in the future lol.

Thanks everyone, the bustle is nice i have to admit,
My skirt cake today too, but not sure if i like it with the bustle or not yet.

No i do not like the skirt with the bustle it looks pants.
Gawd i never find anything that looks nice grrrrr
Think i ashould just give up on it all, itsnot like its gonna look any good on me, or that ill ever get to wear it anywhere!
>< EMO FACE

a lot of people have started wearing bustles with trousers or three quarter lengths - especially leather or dark materials. maybe something like that would work?

Thanks Quick, im gonna attempt a skirt pattern i found, and if all else fails then trousers it will be.
