I love all of the Elf and Man costumes (except Arwen! PJ, she is NOT Greek!). For this Halloween and for the Return of the King, I'm already getting my costume together. I'm going to end up looking like a cross between an Elf and a Ranger. <P><BR>COSTUME TIP # 1:<BR>To make that slit over-robe that Elrond wears while he's talking to Gandalf in Rivendell, all you have to do is get a vampire cloak or any other type of cloak (they sell them at most costume stores) and separate the two seams on the sides using scissors or anything else. Be sure to stop cutting (or tearing) about five inches from the top, otherwise, the front two "straps" will bunch up. You might have to trim them because they end up dragging slightly on the floor, but it will give you a nice-looking black version of Elrond's over-robe.
