bulletExhibited at the Linwood Dunn Theater in Hollywood - 2009

Dark green double breasted wool military jacket with brass buttons.  Light green wool trousers with false front. decoration in green braid.  
     
  While color is wacky in these pics, the detail is the cleanest on the boots and and buttons on the side of the trousers.
  Most true to colors pic
   
CU of hat detail.  "Brass button" here looks to be a brad.  Matt gold braid over wide pleated black ribbon. Decorate tape is hand shaped by gathering the inside of the curve to shape the flat trim.
Examining the trouser detail, can see that that the front flat is false.  (Means zipper hidden in the back or side.)

This photo is also good for seeing the bottom details of the coat.

CU detailed look of the sleeves, edge is finished with tape turned under.

Cuff decoration is 3 layers of the same decorative trim used on the trower.
