Lamanite Crowd Cape and Headdress, Worn Over Tunic
-
Description
-
A cape and headdress depicting a Lamanite, intended to be worn by a crowd actor. Both the cape and headdress consist of unbraided red, black, and white macrame rope, which gives the cape a feather-like appearance and fur-like texture. The headdress has an effigy of a llama built into the forehead of the headdress, along with matching ears on the scalp. This effigy is made of silver and gold lamé and has an aesthetic reminiscent of Native American civilizations from Central America. The first picture shows the costume in its entirety.The second picture shows a side view of the headdress, complete with ears on the far left of the image in gold outline.The third picture shows braided macrame rope used to make the costume and hold it together.The fourth and fifth pictures show alternate views of the headdress and costume as a whole, respectively.
