DE KAT STEAM PUNK EDITION

Each year The Aleit Group releases their much-anticipated Limited Edition Online Magazine. This year the theme was STEAM PUNK which can be described as ‘Victorian beauty meets mechanical engineering.’

They then decide to host a lavish dinner/ dance party in an old steel factory. The result would be amazing!” With that you can just imagine how crazy the set was. Here are a few teaser photographs courtesy of Joe Dreyer.
