Steampunk is a fantasy genre based on the Victorian era which embellishes the technology of the time. As the name implies, the use of steam-powered gadgets and inventions is abundant in Steampunk, as is the Victorian culture and lifestyle. Brass and wood, goggles, top hats, and sprockets are chief æsthetic elements of the genre.

Steampunk is also worn as an alternative fashion style, which heavily borrows elements from the fantasy genre. It has a fusion style with the Japanese lolita fashion, steampunk lolita. It also frequently overlaps with lolita's masculine counterpart ouji.
