Hester Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Well, ever since punk designer Vivienne Westwood outfitted Adam & the Ants, pirate imagery has been part of high-end and mainstream fashion: So, what's the best piece (or pieces) of pirate fashion in your everyday wardrobe (Ren. Faire garb excluded)? For me, it would be my new bermuda-length white denim shorts trimmed with 2" wide metallic gold ribbon on the cuffs and pockets. ... paired with my cream & black striped Ralph Lauren cami.

Hester Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 This is not actually part of my wardrobe: ... I just wish it were. Granted, it might be a bit difficult to find an appropriate place or occasion to wear it. Cheers, Hester Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kass Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Boy Hester, how did I miss this thread?!?!?! It's right up my alley! Mine is probably this red satin set of stays based on an original from the 1740s. Kinda cunning, don't you think? Building an Empire... one prickety stitch at a time!

Cap'n Pete Straw Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Your question was asking about "everyday" wardrobe, right? In that case, I have no pirate themed item. However, as an accessory, I attached a PotC "cursed Aztec gold coin" as a fob on my pocket watch. I have that on me everyday. As far as my pirate gear goes, it has to be my coat... shown in the picture below... "He's a Pirate dancer, He dances for money, Any old dollar will do...

Capt. Sterling Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 My new red coat, currently under construction.... "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell... I was forced to write what I would say to prevent the loss of blood, and because of the pain I suffered by speaking."~ Woodes Rogers Crewe of the Archangel http://jcsterlingcptarchang.wix.com/creweofthearchangel# http://creweofthearchangel.wordpress.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smylingsnake Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 My best outfit's a wee bit minimal, bein' as i've not had much in the way of funds, but i have managed to come across a few items that work pretty well together. the outfit consists of a black McKay Tricorn over a plain green bandanna, black button shirt with the sleeves rolled, jeans (alas, i've not yet found a good pair o' pirate strides) and black boots. the 'Street Pirate' look, if you will.
