Victorian Versions of popular costumes

I didn't see this posted, but I'm sure has been and I missed it. A French photographer took photos of super heroes and sci-fi characters as if the were in the 16th century. I thought a few of the superheroes were cool. Didn't care much for the Star Wars ones.

Eh, wasn't too crazy for any of these. "What if your favorite pop-culture characters lived in the 16th century?" should be changed to "What if your favorite pop-culture characters just had cuffed collars?"

Sticking a huge ruff on a costume doesn't really show much creativity in creating a 'period' version of a character.
Also there's about 300 or so years between these 16th century/vaguely-renaissance costumes (i.e. early to mid 1500's) and the Victorian period 1837-1901.
