Under that brim. Elphaba's pointed witch hat gives this outfit its unmistakable outline, while the finely striped black coat rewards a closer view. The long cape extends that shape behind the wearer, giving a standing pose plenty of presence even without a broom. For a character whose determination so often puts her at odds with the people around her, the dark, emphatic silhouette feels fitting. This Wicked costume centers on that dressed, imposing version of Elphaba, with three included pieces doing the visual work.
Fine Stripes Beneath the Witch Hat
Black can make separate garments merge visually, so the coat's fine striping matters. It gives the central garment detail within the single-color palette. The hat establishes the witch silhouette above it; the cape broadens the composition around and behind it. In a portrait, those three elements offer different points of interest: the brim near the face, the striped coat through the center, and the trailing fabric below.
The Black Coat Set costs $90.99 and contains the black striped coat, a long cape with a train, and a pointed witch hat. Polyester is the listed material. There is one orderable style, with size providing the choice within this listing.
Make Room for Elphaba's Train
The cape deserves attention before you settle on a photo location. Its listed length is 194 cm in every size, from S through 3XL. Selecting a smaller coat size therefore does not shorten the cape. That fixed measurement is particularly useful when deciding how much floor space you want behind your pose and how you will manage the train while moving between locations.
For a full-length photograph, leave enough room in the frame to show where the train ends. A tight crop can emphasize the hat and coat, but it loses the long line behind them. At a busy gathering, keep track of the trailing edge around other people's feet and chairs.
Matching the Coat to Your Measurements
All six sizes are orderable: S, M, L, XL, XXL and 3XL. The chart labels the main garment “Dress,” so use those figures when checking the coat. For example, L lists a 102 cm bust, an 86 cm waist, 41 cm shoulders and 61 cm sleeves. Those separate measurements offer more guidance than the letter alone.
Length also changes across the range: the main garment measures 140 cm in S and 155 cm in 3XL. Suggested heights are recommendations, separate from garment measurements. Compare your bust, waist and shoulders as well as your height, especially when planning what to wear beneath the coat. Manual measurements may differ by 1–2 cm.
The Broom Is Your Decision
Shoes, a broom, gloves and a wig are excluded. That leaves room to decide how much of your portrayal rests on accessories. A broom can support a deliberate character pose; an empty-handed portrait lets the coat's stripes and cape occupy more attention. Either approach works with the three supplied pieces.
Remember the 194 cm cape length in every size.
