Costume Piece Makeshift Robe Idea

One of the more requested costume pieces is the infamous robe. And one of the arguments of creating such a piece has been that the bottom half of the robe distorts when emotes, like jumping jacks or warm-up, are executed. Long garbs, like those worn by CoT Mages or Tsoo Sorcerers, are not made to be stretched so wildly. I have a costume piece suggestion that could possibly solve this dilemma. Although it wouldn’t literally be a robe, it could work aesthetically for those yearning for that look.

Solution: Introducing the Sybil costume! But for this case the focus is on the long fabric piece that falls from the front of the belt. Market it as a belt piece. That way you could combine it with the skirt or the kilt and achieve that long garment feel. Also combine with the Trenchcoat or the Magic Bolero and Voila! A makeshift robe!

This long fabric belt piece may allow for the leg room needed to perform all emotes. Lemme know what you think. Thanks.

Only in your mind, dear. The rest of us got the Bolero coat, which is in fact a coat, not a robe. Call it what you like but people want "robes" which look like they're at least a little connected on the sides/front. Bolero, while beautiful, and certianly one of my new favorite costume parts, is *not a robe*.
