The Chimera Politician
This luxurious eastern European inspired outfit is a medieval fantasy costume made for a politically savvy character from the Chimera guild from Bicolline. Made of genuine silk shantung with a cotton lining, the Ottoman kaftan overcoat presents nuances of burgundy, marine blue, and purple for a very rich and opulent color pallet. With elbow length sleeves and asymmetrical buttonholes, this classic eastern kaftan is enhanced by a contrasting cloth belt and wine colored under tunic.
To lean further in the eastern European influence of this gorgeous outfit, we worked with Création Sydéral to produce an Ukrainian Papakha Cossack's hat. Working with black fur provided by the customer, we managed to create a very comfortable and dignified looking headpiece for this cunning character.
