It has 1″ brass studs around  the gold head band, real metal clockworks to give it that ‘steampunk’ gear vibe, porcupine quills and pheasant and peacock feathers.

The standing stylized floating collar is a cream damask with two black tuxedo buttons. The bodice is made of faux ostrich, and faux crocodile, with eyelets, lacing, belt and buckle, along with a variety of ‘mad hatter’ elements to complete it’s details.
