I need to make a costume for an All Saints party. I want to look like
a Buddhist monk or perhaps the Dali Lama. Does anyone know what the garment that they wear is called and how to make one? I've never made clothes before plus this only needs to last for six hours so simple is appropriate for many reasons. Even if you have no idea, please tell me how much fabric a 6' person would need to make a simple toga. |

Even if you have no idea, please tell me how much fabric a 6' person would need to make a simple toga. They're called robes. Not sure if these are just long lengths of fabric, or several lengths, or what. http://www.buddhanet.net/e-learning/.../robe_pics.htm |

Then you could be the "Dolly Llama". |
