Dieselpunks

Dieselpunk + Steampunk Culture

Public Reaction

I was curious what reaction others here receive from the public when you're wearing dieselpunk style? Most of the time mine is pretty positive. Especially from senior citizens. Today was a little disturbing though. I was dressed in what I call my "Godfather style" meaning all black with a white tie and my white fedora (the same hat as in my photo here). We were out eating lunch when I noticed some women looking at a cell phone laughing. After they left my wife leaned over and told me that they had taken my photo.

Anyone else get odd reactions when wearing dieselpunk fashion?

Here in DC even with a sizable population of hat wearers the only real place to go for hats is Hat Barn in Fredericksburg, VA, an hour south of DC.  Luckily for me I live near Fredericksburg...

I don't wear Dieselpunk on a daily basis, but my friends regularly compliment me on my way of dressing. I'm the only to wear a jacket as part of a normal outfit, and one of two to wear a hat..

Thanks for the tip! Now I just have to guilt one of my car-owning friends into driving me out there.
