Captain Jack Sparrow Pirate Costume Tips

The Captain Jack Sparrow pirate costume is always popular and now a Halloween staple. If you want the most authentic Jack Sparrow costume or just want to add more details to your existing one, read on for the full report on this iconic pirate costume.

To start, Captain Jack Sparrow had long dark hair that's worn in a combination of dreadlocks and braids. His hair is adorned with a selection of beads and usually a red scarf. You’ll find his leather ‘tricorne’ hat over this scarf with his signature gold doubloon attached. He has a long goatee that is parted into two braids and he also wears a silver chain. He also wears ‘kohl’ around his eyes which was used historically in Asia as a dark eye make-up, but you can just use foundation and smudged eye-liner or mascara.

For his clothing he sports a classic white linen shirt with ruffled sleeves with a grey waistcoat over it. His grey coat was made of silk in the movie, but you just need to color to match. Around his waist you’ll find a red woven sash and a belt with his compass attached. He wears dark grey pants which are tucked into brown cuffed suede boots and also wears a baldric with a silver buckle on his shoulder.

Captain Jack Sparrow needs his accessories and jewellery. On his right index finger he wears a silver skull with an emerald. On his left hand he wears a black onyx and a silver dragon. He also has leather straps around the middle and index fingers of his hand attached to his leather gloves. Achieve this authentic look I recommend starting at thrift stores if you have the time. An easier way to start is to buy a Captain Jack Sparrow pirate costume online and add your own touches and accessories to complete the true Pirates of the Caribbean look.
