Papa Emeritus is the anti-pope frontman persona of the Swedish rock band Ghost, associated with black papal vestments printed with inverted crosses and a tall mitre. This costume pairs a black robe with a mitre hat. The Papa Emeritus Robe And Hat option costs $59.99.
Black Robe, Purple Front and Batwing Sleeves
The robe combines a purple front panel, cross designs and batwing sleeves. Its loose, unisex cut is part of the costume's design, while polyester is the listed material. If those features are your main reason for choosing this version, use the gallery's robe-front, sleeve-detail and sleeves-open images to examine them alongside the full costume views.
The included pieces are the robe and hat. Keep that short list separate from your styling ideas: skull face paint, gloves and a staff are excluded. You can build your interpretation around the supplied garments, then decide which of those separate additions you want for your own Papa Emeritus presentation.
Choosing Measurements for the Papa Emeritus Robe
The men's chart describes body measurements rather than the finished garment. A wearer standing 180-185 cm tall can start by examining L, then assess its bust, waist and hip entries before deciding. The loose cut describes the robe's shape; it does not replace the chart's measurement guidance.
- S: Height 170-175 cm and bust 92-97 cm provide starting points for comparison at the smaller end of the range.
- L: Height 180-185 cm and bust 107-112 cm offer a useful middle reference within the available options.
- XXL: Height 190-195 cm and bust 122-127 cm identify the largest listed option.
Waist entries deserve a separate comparison. XL lists 97-99 cm, while XXL lists 104-128 cm. Those are the published ranges, so read the actual figures rather than estimating the change from one letter designation to the next. Compare your hip measurement as well before settling on a selection.
The chart is supplied in centimetres and inches. Choose one unit for your notes and keep your comparisons consistent. For example, L lists a bust of 42.1-44.1 inches alongside its 107-112 cm entry. These figures describe the wearer measurements used for selection, rather than measurements taken from the finished robe.
Planning Skull Makeup and Raised-Arm Photos
Black-and-white skull face paint is an optional way to develop the stage-inspired styling. Because skull face paint is excluded, treat makeup as a separate part of your preparation. Gloves and a staff are also separate choices; neither appears in the robe-and-hat package.
For photographs, try raised-arm poses to feature the batwing sleeves. Make that sleeve shape the focus of one image, then use another composition to feature the purple front and cross designs. This gives you specific details to work with without requiring extra accessories.
Keep the tall mitre visible when framing a portrait, especially if the skull makeup is your main focus. For a wider photograph, include both raised sleeves and the purple panel so the image records the robe's two distinct features: its broad batwing shape and contrasting front detail.
The product gallery includes front and side views, a sleeves-open view, and individual robe and mitre images. Use those references to choose which supplied elements you want to emphasize. A robe-and-hat portrait and a raised-arm costume photograph are two optional approaches built around the pieces and design details already listed.
