Great looking outfit/costume that is fraternal in origins, size is unmarked. but I wear a 42 long and it fits me with a little room to spare.Lets start with the outside-its covered in velvet in a glourious shade of red. In the center of the chest area are 6 two and a half inch roundgolden circles, in the middle of these circles is a red jewel (for future reference when I say jewel, I'm talking about a glass, or plastic imitation, and NOT a real precious stone), almost an inch in diameter, hanging from each jewel are 2 brass tassels (total of 12). T is a heavy brasscord with a knot in the middle connecting each of the right circles to its counterpart on the left. Below that is about a 2 inch wide greco-romandesign that goes all the way around the garment. About 3 inches from the bottom is a 2 inch wide strip of a golden material with a cloverleaf design about every 3 inches on top and bottom. Costume has shoulderboards made out of a golden material, they are 8 inches long by 4.25 inches wide-each shoulder board has 4 one-half inch jewels on it, t is brass fringe hanging from each shoulderboard. About half way down each sleeve is another decoration in a golden material thats 1.5 inches wide, and sewn on in a v pattern, with embellishments to its'outside, t are 7 jewels attached in a v pattern in the golden material on each sleeve. read more
