Sometimes it’s just too hot to leave the house in head-to-toe quasi-futuristic Victorian regalia. Even steampunks go to the beach.

That’s one of the most genious pieces of fashion I’ve seen.
And why it’s so lonely here?
Now I need a marble, a chute, a rickety set of steps, a guy in a bathing costume getting ready to dive into a tub…
that’s exactly what i saw too.
Don’t forget the cheese!
So glad I am not the only one that instantly saw the game Mousetrap from this.
Love it too, with the cherry on top (or bottom, since they’re shoes) being the Louboutins.
…how is this poorly dressed? She’s obviously at some goth event, so she’s dressed appropriately for the occasion.
And the shoes are gorgeous.
I agree. My first thought was that I would have liked the photo to have been a proper, full-length one so I could see the whole outfit, not to mention hairdo and makeup.
Her ‘clothing’ is cloth over a crinoline and what looks like a wire version of a corset. That’s not considered clothing in most people’s eyes. At least she’s wearing some form of shorts or bloomers…
Some people really needs to get a crash course in fashion.
And somebody also posted a picture from the Toronto no-pants even in here.
aaack. I meant “event”.
#correction
I love when people claim others need fashion lessons. Guess what! I’m a fashion designer and spend hours a day looking at fashion. This is pretty awesome. Deal with it.
I agree! This is pretty awesome, and really sexy at the same time!
Bros, I’m a fashion designer and this is terrible
Glad not everyone has the same imagination as you or we wouldn’t have outfits as awesome as this.
Well, clearly this is poorly dressed because the only proper undergarment is a black leather thong.
I like it. And I’m loving the shoes, too.
I’m loving the shoes and knickers!
Oh, I love this. Look at all the people in the background wearing black, it’s obviously a theme. Love the Louboutins. Fail for putting this picture up as a fail.
Best game of Mousetrap EVER.
I’m absolutely inlove with teh shoes <3
Crinolines are so passe.
That’s not a crinoline – it’s a hoop.
That would never catch a raccoon. Have you people ever MET a raccoon? They’re not stupid enough to get caught in something like that.
Chill, it’s a joke…
You have to admit, though, that would be funny to watch.
Yoplait had to redesign it’s yogurt containers to make the opening bigger because raccoons would get their heads caught in them and couldn’t figure out how to get them off. They starved to death. Raccoons are not terribly smart.
If one did get in there, though, this Goth chick would get first prize in the costume contest due to the hoop skirt revealing bloody legs from the raccoon trying to get out.
Raccoons aren’t terribly smart? Tell that to the ones that keep springing our traps and getting away with the food, they’ll laugh their asses off.
Once upon a time, women actually wore a skirt over their hoop skirt….
Lady gaga is that you?
Why is it that anytime someone wears something mildly eccentric, people have to make a Lady Gaga joke. I’m pretty sure people did things like this before she was even born. Jeez.
Please. If a snarky comment is necessary, be a little more creative than some joke tearing down people who-GOD FORBID!-deviate from the masses stylewise.
I thought this person was being snide, and then I noticed the Louboutins…
A cage skirt! They have patterns in Gothic Lolita and Goth mags how to make these, but I am not clever enough to figure it out. LOVE IT though!
Err, I thought this

Chii!!!!
I saw a similar pair of those shoes in the movie “She’s Out of My League” I have to have them! Anyone know where to get them??
I don’t know about the movie, but these are Louboutins. You can look for boutiques in your city on his website:
http://www.christianlouboutin.com
Altough you may find them in other stores, as well. The one where my friend got hers, for eyample, isn’t on there. (Maybe ’cause they sell other brands, too?)
In incredibly expensive shoe/department stores, Nordstrom being one. In the Couture Shoe department. If you can afford them I’m seriously jealous!
if that’s dressing poorly, I never want to dress “sharp” -3-
Where’s The rest of the dress?
This style inspired by the classic board game, “Mousetrap”!
Wow(in a good way)! That is absolutely gorgeous… if this is what poorly dressed looks like, I wonder what the girls at my school would be called XD
That’s at the wave gotik Treffen festival in Leipzig, Germany.
Many girls walk around in clothes like that there, it’s usual (and sometimes men do so, too)
I think, a 3rd of the WGT-dresses are worth to be posted here….
some of them might be too generous.
(sadly concearning the girls, luckily concearning the guys….)
Reminds me of something Clive James once wrote about Torvill and Dean’s ice dancing costumes… ”bum freezer frilled skirts for her…”
I love this picture! (being a Goth myself)
To bad we can’t see the whole outfit, I bet it’s amazingly beautiful
this is some kind of EroLolita stuff.
Her shoes are awesome and I love her legs!
It looks like MacGuyver made this dress out of some twine and a few paper clips to escape from somewhere.
i saw this woman some weeks ago in germany on the wave and gothic meeting, that´s the reason for all the black dressed people around her
It’s a chastity skirt.
I love this dress, anyone found a “complete” picture ?
awesome outfit! yay goth festival!
Oooooh, I want one!!!!
shes clearly at a goth festivle and i love it
OMG It looks exactly like the piece from the Mousetrap board game!!
Also good for not getting raped!!
this picture was shot at the WGT (= Wave-Gotik-Treffen)! it’s a meeting for gothics, that takes place in Leipzig (Germany) every year.
check out: http://www.alive-erfurt.de/wgt-2010 for more pictures
I knew it was WGT! When I saw it, it had that vibe…always wanted to go to that! Love this pic!
This was taken on the WGT (Wave Gotik Treffe) in Leipzig I’m sure… look at their site to see more adorable (and freaky *g*) outfits… Btw it’s the biggest festival for gothic in the world…
Dude it totally looks like some Elizabethan lingerie attempt. I agree that this one isn’t a fail at all. And yeah, it is totally a Goth convention.
I want this entire outfit. Shoes included (not that I would ever be able to afford Louboutins. I’m tempted to see if I can make this. It would be absolutely perfect for a night at Dragon*Con!
I want to be inside of there.
For those of you saying those shoes are Louboutins, they aren’t. Red sole, yes, but they’re most likely, given the outfit, a pair of fetish heels from Pleaser USA, a popular dance/fetish shoe company. They did come out with a red-soled black patent pump a couple seasons ago for their general catalog. I believe they were under the “Penthouse by Pleaser” label.
(Sorry, erotica-store clerk nerdery coming out…)
I want this dress so bad.
soooo this is a hoop underskirt, or crinoline, from somewhere around 1865, not the victorian era which was later in the 1800′s and in which the bustle silhouette was popular. this actually looks historically legit, although im not sure about the rest of the outfit or what the purpose of it in this picture is!
This actually looks damn hot.
Like the shoes!
This would be perfect for my Lady Gaga halloween costume this year
Has anyone found a place to buy this yet???
Totally reminded me of Ashlotte in Soul Calibur 4! Maybe its just me…?
Hehe, Wave-Gotik-Treffen in Leipzig, Germany, for sure.
Her dress is still loading, guys. Don’t be so rude.
That girl is probably on Wave Gotik Treffen
. I evy her.
However I really like her clothing style. I don’t know why is she here.
Show of hands, who thinks that this is strangley hot? ~raises both my hands~ Alright, 2 so far.
how bout a game of beavertrap?
