Costumes

Imagine that a play has been written about you, and you are designing a costume for the actor playing you. What sort of outfit would this actor wear and why? What clues would the costume give about your personality? Be sure to mention the fabric, color, and length of the garments. This prompt can also relate to the monodrama you've created. If you are reenacting an event from your past, what would you have worn at that time, and why?
I'm going to design the main outfit for my actor - the one that my character comes back to the most because it is the one he likes to wear the most. He has many different clothes, but this is his favorite because it represents the different parts of his life that he is tied to. He is wearing blue, white, and black Vans shoes with long white and gray socks from Costco - both he got with his family. He is wearing 30x32 jeans from the Gap, which he got with his friends from California, coupled with a worn leather belt that he has had for years. He sports a black Volcom t-shirt from California - 100% cotton, machine washable. It's a little faded because he's worn it so many times. Over this, he has on a zip-up black sweatshirt (what he calls a "swacket" - half sweatshirt, half jacket). He got it in New York City with his new friends from college, and it is from Billabong, has an interesting crest pattern on the front, and has both a collar and a hood on it.
I'll probably wear this when I perform my monodrama, because it represents a lot of different parts of my life that have made me who I am today.
