SteamPunk!

'The Attic' SteamPunk Window
Original Vintage outfits to create the authentic SteamPunk look
Beautiful new donations to the shop including Vintage umbrellas starting at a mere £15
We've had SteamPunk mania in the shop this week as our Window Displays and vintage clothing have been selling as quickly as we put them out! By the time we'd got round to photographing the main window, we'd already sold an entire outfit on each of the models. 

If you didn't know, the annual Asylum SteamPunk festival at The Lawn in Lincoln starts this Thursday the 6th and will be taking over the city all weekend. Each year promises the best in bizarre, creative, and inspiring costumes and anybody and everybody is welcome. 

We have a plethora of clothes and accessories for you to get kitted out in The Attic, with beautiful vintage dresses starting at as little as £15! Keep an eye out for us this weekend as well, as we don our corsets, waistcoats, and full vintage dresses on Lincoln High Street! 

Between all the SteamPunk madness we also have some truly beautiful pieces of Vintage furniture and accessories in The Attic at the moment.
