How To Make A Jack Sparrow Costume!
Remember that if you’re short of anything to make a convincing costume you can order individual bits and pieces from Amazon! Here is what you’ll need:
1. Brown boots.
2. A long sleeved puffy white buttoned shirt.
3. Brown belt with large metal buckle.
4. Baggy brown pants.
5. If you go to a local costume shop you should be able to find a dread-lock wig, rasta hat, fake bear and mustache (unless you can grow these).
6. Get some beads to add to the dreadlocks.
7. You should also get a suitable long cloaked jacket too!
8. A sword and pistol to put in your belt.
9. Black eyeliner.
10. A gold tooth! You could buy a cap from a joke shop or else color it in with a felt tipped pen.
If you’re going to look around a bunch of shops to find suitable clothes for the costume then my advice would be to take a photo of Jack Sparrow with you so you can compare the items.
Don’t forget to practice his mannerisms and get into character before your party begins! You could also watch a couple of the films to help you get into character. People will be very impressed that you came as Captain Jack Sparrow however they’ll love it even more if you act like him for the entire night.
