This client sent me reference pictures of a statue that he liked, and asked me to recreate the statue’s costume for him with a few changes. The surcoat has ¾ length sleeves, side slits, and a detachable cloak. It is made of eggshell colored linen and lined with heavy weight crinkle cotton. It is trimmed in red cotton bias tape to match the Maltese cross appliqués on the front and back. The cloak is made of crinkle cotton and lined with cotton broadcloth. It has a white Maltese cross appliqué made of linen. The cloak buttons onto the surcoat at the shoulders. The pants are made of linen, and lace at the calves. I also made leather bracers to match this costume, which are also in this gallery.
