Check out some of the best steampunk garb from out in the Aether.
This past weekend, the first annual ConTemporal convention moored its dirigible in Chapel Hill, NC. The science-fiction gathering had a strong concentration in the steampunk tradition, complete with clockwork prop displays, steampunk authors like Cherie Priest (Boneshaker) touting their wares and fanciful Victorian costumes. The Escapist team had a great time exploring the airship station and meeting the denizens of a bygone era.
Here are some of the individuals, families and couples who made an impression on us, recreated in jpg format from the original daguerreotypes:
