Steampunk wedding dress?

I really have this strong urge to make a steampunk wedding dress. It's in my head. I know the shape, the bustline, the materials, everything. Made of yards and yards of off-white lace, gold gears, white roses, and pearls and clock hands and satin ribbon and all that frippery.

I can easily get my hands on these things. And with this kind of drive, I could probably finish the dress in a week or so.

My only issue is this: What do I do with it? I mean, it's a huge freaking dress. You don't wear those every day. Or ever. And I don't feel like letting it take up space in my house.

That's the only thing holding me back from making this gorgeous monstrosity. After I finish it... what then?

EDIT: It's done!

It was put on the project list, and will probably end up a summer project.

If I got commissioned to make one, that'd be a different story. It depends entirely on when the wedding in question is and whether or not I know the bride.
