Costume of Los MimosWroclaw Mime Theatre

Major-domo costume

...is a classic three-piece men's set: coat, jacket and trousers.

Attention is immediately drawn to the lace jabot, which is complemented by three large buttons studded with decorative stones.

A characteristic element of the Major-domo costume are the large, hanging, lace sleeves of the Engageantes type.

There was also a men's hairstyle characteristic for that time fashion - wigs in white curls fastened with a bow.

The outfit is decorated with gold ribbons of braids.

The cream-coloured fabric of the costume is enriched by the pattern with floral motifs.

The lower part of the wardrobe is a typical culotte, a mid-calf pants.

The costumes in Los Mimos were designed by Małgorzata Bulanda.
