Dr. Grordbort's Victorian steampunk pistolRayguns! With names like The Unnatural Selector, The Manmelter, and The Moon Hater Death Ray, they’re shiny articulated weapons of retro-futuristic design (one of them a Victorian pistol), made limited edition and arriving nestled within a velvet-lined case, accompanied by crafting tools and various implements. Ammo is sold separately and rather elusive.

Lusty Leather medieval warrior bodiceMedieval dressup grounded in solid ren-faire getups, and perfectly happy to buckle things up for fetish nights, too. Cinchers where unicorns dance along the front lacing, bodices for wenches and warriors and those who appreciate a fine bit of tooling, dagger bracers, belts and all the various attachments to clip on gear for drinking and fighting (and making phone calls), and the Dungeon takes things a bit darker with collars, cuffs, floggers, and sprinklings of O-rings. Custom welcome.

WalkingCanesNet Victorian gothic snake caneLots of potential for Victorian and fantasy accessorization, as this catalog sports a Fashion and Style section along with the no-frills medical stuff. Wooden dog heads that evoke the scent of leather and scotch, Derby-handled styles floralized with purple pansies that look like things Sarah Waters’ characters would carry, there’s at least one grinning skull in here, and gnarled shepard’s crooks match perfectly to wizards’ robes. They also carry canes that slide off to reveal hidden swords.

Blanche's Place satin cameo evening bagA hodgepodge of bygone eras: medieval gowns and tunics, Old West riding jackets, Civil War hoopskirtedness, Victorian froofy high-necked blouses and the laced boots to match, Edwardian dresses, teaparty hats, feathered hair clips, rhinestone jewelry – good for costuming, or working a little history into a modern outfit. The evening bags are utterly irresistible, plump and adorable with fringe and clasps, and much of the stock seems to be chosen by whatever catches the owner’s whim: fringed leather jackets, Celtic flasks, lacy dressing gowns, ornate high-glam wall masks, the mixed-media collages of LipStick Ranch Cowgirl Art.

And of course, swords, axes, daggers, crossbows, and a gallery of shields to defend against them.
