I made this costume as if I had to Design a Red Death costume for a new stage production. It has some of the classic design features that the Red Death is known for along with some slight changes I made to make the costume more appealing to me.

I made the entire costume except for the Boots and Mask.
I Drafted the patterns for the Hat, Cape and Pants.
The pants are striped Silk and Upholstery Velvet, I cut and resewed 4 yards of fabric to make the fabric on the pants. The pants have a total of 20 stripes of gold trim, 4 stripes of sequined trim, 8 stripes of machine embroidery, and 12 embroidered circles on each leg.

The Doublet was made with a pattern I heavily modified, it has about 40 embroidered circles, 40 hand sewn gems and a custom button front.

The Cape is 10 yard of fabric and it has 20 yards of trim. It's made of high grade Upholstery Velvet and corduroy.

The Hat I made using Foamies as a base and covering them with the same fabric as the doublet. Everything is sewn and no glue was used to make this hat.

The Skull cane is PVC and Fiberglass.
