Dear all,
Can anyone suggest where I might acquire a costume which could pass for a 17th century plague doctor's outfit ? I'm resigned to not having the beaky mask, but am stumped as to where I might get a full-length robe for my brave colleague who will be administering treatments and advice to a class of Yr 8 plague victims !
All suggestions gratefully received, (illustration attached)
Many thanks !
Eleanor
