An Arica Costume Must Have:

(These costume elements are required.)

 

 

Bodysuit:

* One piece blue-violet or blue-gray formfitting bodysuit made from a low-sheen stretch material.

* The left sleeve is wrist length, while the right shoulder and arm remain bare.

* The right pant leg is ankle length, while the left leg reaches only to mid thigh.

* Any zippers must be hidden on the back or on the right side. No fasteners or openings on the front.

* Silver or gray swirling patterns are to be embroidered, painted, or sculpted and attached to the bodysuit in the following locations:

--- Right leg, encircling the bottom pant hem.

--- Outer right leg, extending from the bottom hem up to mid thigh. The design broadens at the knee, coming around to cover the front of the knee.

--- Left wrist, encircling the sleeve hem.

--- Back of the left arm, extending from the hem up to mid-upper arm.

 

 

Belt:

* A gold colored belt should be made from three braided cords.

* One cord is worn snugly around the waist while the others hang lower on the left hip.

* Two cord ends hang freely on the right side and reach to mid-thigh.

* A round, intricately sculpted belt clasp or buckle is located at the front right hip.

* The belt clasp may be colored silver or gold.

 

 

 

 

Decorative Armor:

* The armor pieces should be intricatly sculpted with a deep, swirling pattern.

* The armor pieces should be silver or gray in color.

* A darker silver or gray color should be used in the low points and crevases of the armor to enhance the visiblity of the design.

* A large, rounded shoulder bell must cover the left shoulder.

* A bracer is worn on the right forearm. The bracer completely encircles the arm and extends from the wrist up to a few inches below the elbow.
