This Model’s Post Apocalyptic Outfit Has a Victorian Touch

— December 9, 2013 — Fashion
This train-hopping model is wearing a post apocalyptic outfit comprised of black leather gloves, laced-up boots, a protective corset and little Victorian era-inspired accessories. Each item, as it stands alone, works as a highlight piece but combined together, they make the model look like a survivor of the apocalypse.

This look is becoming more and more popular especially because of crazes like Steampunk that combine Victorian design with futuristic, world-ending pieces and garments. Her post apocalyptic outfit definitely makes a statement with its gothic undertones -- all black with leather, an eye patch, a choker and a corset.

The abandoned railway and rusted train adds a historical feel to the series, but also alludes to a deserted, post apocalyptic time. The photo series — captured by Behance User Bartosz Bytrowski — shows a style that is definitely going to stick around because it encompasses details from the past, present and future.
