About this deal

Dressing like a pope will look an awful lot like dressing like a Bishop. See tips for that above. Also, some popes like to wear red shoes. There are lots of saints who were popes, but here are a few. Cut: on 1 brown shirt, make a rounded cut, shortening it to about 1 foot long from the collar and cutting off the sleeves to make his cowl. Cut a 6-8 foot length of rope. Tie three large knots 6 inches apart on one end.

Cuts:On 1 white shirt, make a rounded cut, shortening it to about 1 foot long from the collar and cutting off the sleeves.Make a trapezoid-shaped cut from the front (leaving collar band intact) to make the small cape.Cut a 3 inch band from the bottom of the shirt and cut one edge to make a long strip for the fascia (sash belt). Not pictured in the video: Cut off one sleeve. Turn it inside out and gather the cut edge, use a small rubber band to secure it. Turn it right side out. This is your zucchetto (skullcap). Cuts: On the cream shirt, make a trapezoid-shaped cut from the front (leaving the collar band intact) to make her capeCuts: On the yellow shirt, cut off the sleeves & straight down each side to the bottom. Make a straight cut from top to bottom. Born around AD 280, in what is now known as Cappadocia, Turkey, St George was a Christian martyr and became a soldier in the Roman army. He later progressed to the role of a personal guard for the Emperor Diocletian. Assembly: put on off-white shirt, add red cape, add burgundy veil. Add accessories. 6. Saint Mother Teresa of Calcutta

Also known as The Feast of Saint George, it is a customary celebration of various Christian churches, as well as other nations, states and countries of which Saint George is the patron saint - including Bulgaria Portugal, Romania and Spanish communities such as Aragon and Catalonia. Many people still celebrate St George today - marking the occasion by lighting up buildings in white and red, the colours of the English flag. The shirts I used are mostly adult extra large t-shirt from a craft store, and that’s also where most of the props came from. You can also use shirts from the thrift store or old shirts from around the house. Just turn anything with graphics inside out. The costumes you’ll see here, buying new t-shirts and some props, and using some things we had around the house, cost an average of fifteen dollars each. CUTS & TAPING: On shirt 1 (tunic) add tape all around the bottom edge. On shirt 2 (wrap), cut off left sleeve with a straight cut about 2 feet long. Cut off right sleeve and collar with a diagonal cut. Cut about 1 foot off of the bottom. Add a stripe of tape to the newly cut edges. Shirt 3 is the veil. (Add tape to that one later.) Despite England adopting a white cross at first, it later switched to a red cross, which was used as part of the uniforms of English soldiers in several battles. Edward I eventually made this symbol a national emblem during his reign.

Why not add?

St George became a legendary figure in English history due to his courage and bravery - however he never actually set foot in England. The country adopted him as its patron saint, with April 23 being chosen as the date of celebration to mark his death. Even though celebrations may be minimal in England, St George is also the patron saint of other countries and each nation has their own way of honouring the day. Cuts: on the green shirt, make a trapezoid-shaped cut from the front (leaving the collar band intact) to make his cape His head was taken to, and stored, in the church dedicated to him in Rome, while the rest of his body was buried in Lod, Israel.

Assembly: put on brown tunic, add cowl. Leaving the knotted end long, wrap the rope twice around the waist and tie. Add accessories and, for maximum commitment . . . a haircut. 20. Saint Lucy As the date isn't viewed as a bank holiday, transport, schools and businesses operate as normal every year. Optional accessories: beard, fancy book, money bag, three gold balls, three little boys in a barrel (if you happen to have little triplets about . . . Rebecca Gorzynska). Recognised annually on the anniversary of St George's death, the day was previously a national holiday and was once celebrated as widely as Christmas. Who was St George?
