How to Add a Jacket to a Santa Costume

Video Transcript

"Hello, my name is Matt Cail, and on behalf of Expert Village, I'm going to show you today how to do a traditional Santa Clause costume as well as some edgy alternatives. Ho! Ho! Ho! Alright. With our booties on, our trousers on, it's time to put on our nice Santa Clause jacket. This is one of the peaking peaks of the Santa Clause costume. You want to make sure that the jacket you get looks nice. Make sure that you have white fringe on it. Just don't go for solid red. So, we are going to put this on just like you put on any other jacket. Do be careful with it though. Depending on the cost, usually the craftsmanship will be pretty good. But you don't want to necessarily test the material. So, don't be jamming your elbows through the sleeve holes or you may actually get a rip. Basically, at this point, you want it to hang down around the waist, over your trousers. Your trousers should not be exposed up underneath. That's wrong. Definitely your jacket is going to flow over your pillow. Sometimes they will have a zipper or buttons. So make sure this is nice. Look at the belly effect! The jacket really brings it out. You're just going to go down over your pants. That's perfectly normal. Let's make sure that it stays over the pants and again, no funky tucks down there. And as soon as it's basically well fitted up over the shoulders and zipped up, you are ready for the next step."
