Why does a pirate look like a naval officer?

What does a captain from the time of the great sailing ships look like? In the eighteenth century, fleet officers wore a long jacket with stand-up lapels and rows of metal buttons, a vest underneath and knee breeches with boots. Pirate captains picked up that clothing from captured ships, and therefore the naval look and the pirate look are confused in fancy dress clothing. The jabot, a strip of fabric at the neck, and the three-pointed sash belong to that same time period. This costume portrays that officer side of the pirate instead of the torn shirt variant, so choose it if you prefer to exude authority than slovenliness.

This is how you wear the captain's costume at a party evening

First put on the vest with the jacket, tie the jabot at the neck and then lay the sash diagonally across your chest, so that the band falls over the row of buttons. You slide the shoe covers over your own shoes up to the hem of the knee breeches, making it look like you are wearing boots. If you are going along in a parade, you keep your hands free with a fake telescope or a boarding hook in your belt. A white curly wig or gray sideburns complete the image of an old sea dog.

Choose this captain's costume in your size and you will stand on the dance floor during carnival or at a pirate party as the commander of your own ship.
