The second one is average shops or the online shops which sell the steampunk costumes. These costumes are not that expensive like the first type, and the patterns will not be less than the first one. Especially in the online stores, you can see so many different styles and patterns in the steampunk costumes. Though the quality may be not good as the first type to some degree, still a good choice to take into consideration. And this way is most people follow.
Besides, there is a third one that you can make it your own. This may be complicated to most people but there are still someone like DIY. And there, of course, will not have the same two costumes. It just follow the uniqueness.

The steampunk style in the clothing field has a long history. People still love this kind of dressing style because the unique look it sends. In the following part I will go with some prevailing costumes in this steampunk style.

The first kind is the dirigible captain. As the Captain of an airship, you can go uber-military or more independent and casual. You can be a scruffy sky pirate wearing the scrounged medals of your various heists.

The second one is adventurer. The clothes, shirt with sleeves rolled up, jodhpurs, khaki clothes, suspenders, rugged but sensible boots, belt full of gear, side arm, compass and so on.
The following one is with short skirt, extra belts and shiny bronze boots. They are examples of "punk", things that would not be historically accurate, but add fun to the outfit.
