You have lots of flexibility here so look
through your closets to see what might work. Wear a white ruffly looking shirt, or take
the ruffles off something old and add them to one of your shirts. Or, just use a white or
bright-colored T-shirt. You can cut slits into the sleeves to give a ragged look. Add a
vest (an old button-down shirt can be cut into a vest pretty easily). Wear or make a big
wide belt or tie a bright sash around your waist. Wear a bright colored skirt or slacks,
it doesn'y matter. If you don't have pants that'll work, consider making some out of a
striped or bright-colored sheet (use a pair of your regular pants as a guide. Cut the
fabric a couple of inches wide all the way around so you can keep the pants loose. You
could also wear a pair of sweats. Accessorize with an eye patch and hoop earring. Cover
regular boots or shoes with loose black fabric, folded over at the top to make pirate
boots. Tie a sash around your head or wear a bandana.
