Makeup

Hair: Comb hair neatly back with a little gel or water for a polished look.

How to put it together

  1. Wear a white shirt and dark pants under the blazer.
  2. Put on the blazer and button it up.
  3. Fasten the black cape at the neck so it hangs evenly.
  4. Tie the eye mask on and check your side vision.

Two variations

  • Masked Lady

    Wear a long dark dress with the cape and a sparkling mask.

  • White Mask Mystery

    Use a plain white mask and all-black clothes for a striking contrast.

Safety note

Check that the mask does not limit your vision, especially on stairs and near roads. Keep the cape off the floor to avoid trips, and remove the mask before eating.
