When a potential client requested a Roman Costume for a theatre production, I immediately described our selection of flowing robes, brooches, drapes, head wreaths and grapes associated with nero and other toga style greek heroes.
It was Commodus that was required played by Russell Crowe, from the film Galdiator - a truly magnificent costume
and costly to reproduce in authentic materials.
Doing what Admiral costumes does best, we searched the rails
for cream coloured tunics in the right length, found some thick leather belts,
added a cape at the shoulders with some
large brooches and roping, added a breast plate et voila an impressive
commodus.
Admiral Costumes hold an unrivalled stock of hard to find
clothing items that can be adapted and used to create other wonderful outfits,
unique for your production or show.
Commodus and his friends can be seen at The Fox Inn in Carlton, Beds, this weekend.
