Sipping lemonade on a rooftop garden in a retro steampunk costume dress

Golden hour reaches the rooftop garden and the mustard underskirt lights up first, as if somebody turned on a lamp beneath the grey. You carry a glass of lemonade between pots of lavender and brass watering cans, the pleated ruffles brushing the tiles with a papery sound. The bow at your neck lifts in the breeze. Friends on the far bench call you over for a photo, and as you sit, the draped skirt settles around you in soft folds. The city turns pink behind the railing while the jacket buttons gleam in the last light.

Getting dressed and moving comfortably in a bustle-style dress

A layered Victorian bustle dress looks complicated, but it dresses in two simple steps, with the underskirt first and the jacket on top. You do not need a corset, although a light one gives the fitted shape of the period. Take slightly shorter steps, sit on the edge of a chair and let the overskirt fall behind you. Steam the ruffles instead of ironing them, spot clean any marks and store the dress in a garment bag so the pleats stay crisp. Add a small hat and buttoned boots, and this steampunk costume dress steps out of an old photograph.
