Steampunk fashion has later gone on to include gadgets and contrasting accoutrements.
The costumes included clothing, hairstyling, jewellery, body modification and make-up. At the first steampunk convention, 'SalonCon', in 2006, steampunk enthusiasts dressed up in costumes reflecting that era. The aesthetics of the fashion are designed with a post-apocalyptic era in mind. It is a mixture of the Victorian era's romantic view of science in literature and the industrialization in most parts of Europe. Steampunk fashion is a subgenre of the steampunk movement in science fiction.
