How to put it together
- 1
Put on the dark gray or brown slim-fit trousers.
- 2
Slip on the white hooded tunic, ensuring the hood is draped flat on your back for now.
- 3
Wrap the wide red sash around your waist, securing it so the ends hang slightly to the side.
- 4
Buckle the wide brown leather belt directly over the red sash to secure it in place.
- 5
Strap the faux-leather vambraces onto your forearms, placing the hidden blade prop on your left wrist.
- 6
Pull on the tall brown boots and tuck the cuffs of your trousers neatly into them.
- 7
Pull the pointed hood forward over your head so it casts a shadow over your eyes, and adjust the tunic layers.
Makeup & hair
Keep makeup minimal and natural. If your hair is visible beneath the hood, style it in a simple, slicked-back look or a low ponytail to keep it out of your face.
