OK...well, for the gloves i just got an old pair of silk gloves and added silk fabric on to make it more like his(i hope that made sense)and i used fabric paint.
the boots just elastic laced shoes and used upholstery foam for the point and traced the shoe shape (but makeing the outline larger so it can fit and fabric paint there) thats how far i got. im almost done with the sholder cape thing he has so i cannt help you there yet for the rest of the outfit.
I hope all this made sense to you.

i'm a little confused on the elastic. D: but the rest works. the gloves seemed pretty simple, and i have an idea on how the collar would go. his boots though, i was so stuck. XD this helps a lot, thank you.

elastic i mean shoes that have elastic bands and not laces. you know, like slip on shoes that you font need to tie.
