He also should have a beard. Thanks to both--I did find Flavius Josephus's description of priestly garb in his History of the Jewish People. So I read about the vestment (with fringe and bells around the bottom), sash, and breastplate. He says the vestment was blue, so I'm assuming the shellfish blue still used in prayer shawls; however, I think the pageant coordinator is going to insist on black. I figure I can live with black as long as I can do the sash, fringe, and breastplate and an appropriate headdress. My husband has a beard--I think that is one reason he got the part. I'm pretty sure I can do this without patterns, but thanks for the links. Ann Wass **Need a job? Find employment help in your area.

Re: [h-cost] Caiaphas
These aren't truly absolutely historical, but give the expected look for a church pageant: Both Simplicity and McCalls have biblical patterns - McCalls is easier, as it is all rectangles (or almost rectangles) - no set in sleeves. It does have a dropped shoulder, so the fit is a bit baggier. http://www.mccallpattern.com/item/M2339.htm?tab=costumespage=5 Simplicity has two - a dropped shoulder pattern (which I haven't used) and a set-in sleeve pattern (which is still easy). They are: http://www.simplicity.com/dv1_v4.cfm?design=4213 (dropped shoulder) http://www.simplicity.com/dv1_v4.cfm?design=4795 (set in sleeve) They all include wraps, cloaks, extra collar/pectoral pieces, etc. To get Caiaphas mostly depends on fabric choice and trimming. Caiaphas should have a breastplate (large square pendant on chain) with 12 stones on it, as he was the high priest. He also should have a beard. Hope this helps - Sandy and Pierre (who have done waaay too many religious-themed costumes).
