I'm making costumes for a greek play?

Question

For my English project, which is tomorrow!

I can't just throw some sheets together, it's like a costume costume.

I procrastinated and yeah now I don't know what to do.

I'm afraid if I cut too much fabric it won't be long and flowy.

But I have to cut it eventually, I'm just worried.

I didn't buy a pattern like an idiot and now it's too late.

I have a sewing machine and everything. I know how to hem it.

It doesn't have to be perfect but I just don't know where to begin.

What do I do?

Answer 1

You already have Sheets hopefully, and in Eastern Standard time it's now 9:05 PM.

Flowing; loose; Toga/Robe like, often scoop neck, belted/cinched at the waist; embellishments at the hem, sleeve ends, around the neck. SIMPLE truly works very well, unless it's Royal Garb, then you can just embellish more heavily. Gold Braid piping, gold chain, for upper class...Modest; subtle color piping and trim for lower class. Wide tight belts/sashes...Loose fitting, like bathrobe belting; etc. etc.

They can be generally "Fitted" but the belting will hold them and cause more draping. OR thay can be Wraps; cinched. Some kind of Sask over a shoulder works.

Mens would be near floor length. Womens can be Knee length for the young or casual, or Non Royalty, while Long for Royal women.

Jewelry kept to a minimum or subtle, unless it's Royal,,,,and No jewelry for peasant class.

The white sheets would not be all that correct for an historic Greek Woman's clothing. that was once extra within the time of the Roman Empire. what I'd propose is both dye the white sheets redish brown, or get a affordable ream of reddish brown material. Make definite that, while you fold it in part, the tip reaches among the knees and ankles. reduce a gap for the top, tie it across the waist, and feature the various "skirt" stitched in combination.
