Tights, a loose robe or dress-belted, and a biggins or stocking cap with the end wound around your head would work well. Maybe a cloak on top of that. Sharon C.

I'm also on facebook, but a bit disenchanted with it so mostly read other people's drama. I'm taking a new kind of history class this quarter - it's called reacting history. The professor picks a few related scenerios, assigns characters, and we interact as if we are those people. Costumes get you extra points. for the first one I pulled something out of the closet, but for this one I'm not so sure what is correct. Granted I could show up in repurposed goodwill clothes and it'd be OK, but I'd like to do better. The time and place is 1302 France - and the kicker is that I'm roleplaying an older man. I don't have time to do the normal indepth research I do before making something ( I need tomorrow, not in a month), and I'm not overly familar with male clothing. Any suggestions on where to start?. Would the greenlander outfits be appropriate? thanks, Susan Courney _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
