Help with my costume, please

I've got an idea for a character, and I've got everything set except the colors. I can picture what he looks like in my head, except for the colors.

The man is going to be a pompous, delusional, stereotypical French little man who thinks he's a movie director scouting new sets with the help of his crew (of thugs). It's a silly character, but I'd like the costume to make sense, no electric green or hot pink.

So, I ask the forum community, what colors would make sense on this costume?

Color index at ParagonWiki

Head -> Hats
...Face -> Face 22
...Hat -> Beret
...Detail 1 -> English Monocle
...Detail 2 -> Musketeer

Upper Body -> Jackets
...Jackets -> Uniform
...Sleeves -> Uniform Long
...Chest -> T-Shirt
...Chest Detail -> Over -> Shield 2
...Gloves -> Bare Hands
...Belt -> Standard -> Simple Leather

Lower Body -> Tucked In
...Pants -> Baggy (khaki colored preferably)
...Boots -> Smooth -> Combat Boots

Back Detail -> Single Shoulder Mantle
...Cape -> Short -> Scarf
Picture of it

If it wasn't listed, then it's considered None. Thank you in advance, and 'See you on ze set!'

Look is fine, coloring not so much.

Might I suggest Deep Red outfit, mixed with white trim here & there.

Or

Lighter brown for main color, not so much into tan, still dark enough for a brown though, trim it up with a deep purple.

Make his facial hair typical black & secondary a dark gray, giving a nice dastardly french man look too, same with the hair.


Just my thoughts

I delete more 50s, then you'll ever have.

I agree with JJ on this. Although, I think his hat should be black as well.

What guns is he going to be using?
