The top of the suit is a striped jacket or T-shirt. If this is not in your wardrobe, you can paint the white jacket yourself. Costume robbers do not have clear standards, so you can combine the existing things.

Hide the face

As a mask, you can use a black band of tissue with cut out holes for the eyes. The fabric is better to use knitted, it is convenient to work with. Sweep the edges of the mask and do not forget about the strings.

You can choose an alternative - paint the mask with paints. For this, the usual watercolor paint is black.

Addition

In order to supplement the ready-made costumes of the robbers, they use hats and gloves. The headpiece, which is suitable for this image, must fit snugly against the head, necessarily black. You can choose a hat a few sizes smaller, so that it does not completely cover the head.

Gloves are better to prefer leather without fingers. But thin fabrics are also suitable.

As an optional accessory, a bag with money that you can do with your own hands is suitable. For this, two rectangles are cut from a dense fabric or burlap. After that, they sew together to make a bag. Turn inside out and fill with foam rubber or a crumpled newspaper. To make it clear that the bag contains money, you can decorate it with the emblem of the dollar, which is drawn with a marker on a sack or cut out of green fabric.
