Don Juan was
simply a quick & easy costume to make.
I wanted another
costume that I could wear to ren faires, and one that would not require
me to shave. I had always enjoyed the movie, and because of a few similar
characteristics to Jack Sparrow, I decided to make it.
The biggest challenge
with this costume, was to create my own embellishments, to match the
screen used costume as much as possible.
When I originally
wore the costume, my hair had not grown out enough, and my hat was not
ready in time for pictures. This forced me to use a cheap padre hat,
and later photoshop the brim to appear wider.
The only possible
addition to this costume, would be to purchase a replica sword. But
I don't feel it is needed. Besides, people already call me Zorro, so
they don't seem to mind the omission.
