Distinguished Colonial Attire

The long brown coat features an attached vest front, creating a refined layered look befitting an 18th-century gentleman. Designed to echo authentic colonial fashion, the coat includes attached ruffled cuffs that add a scholarly flourish to every gesture. The included shirt front fits neatly beneath the coat and vest combination, completing the stately silhouette seen in portraits of the era.

Breeches & Timeless Details

Black knee-length pants feature an elastic waistband for a comfortable, secure fit while maintaining a classic colonial profile. Paired with tall socks and period-style shoes, the breeches create that unmistakable 1700s outline—ready for town meetings, philosophical debates, or a dramatic reading of revolutionary ideas.

The Signature Franklin Look

No transformation would be complete without the iconic hairstyle. The included wig features a bald spot at the front with long gray synthetic hair flowing along the sides and back, styled to resemble Ben Franklin’s recognizable appearance. It’s the defining detail that elevates the costume from colonial attire to historic portrayal.
