What can you use:

  • Shirt with buttons;
  • T-shirt (white is better for getting dirty and customizing);

  • Shoes;
  • Socks;

  • Short shorts;
  • Loose pants.

Tips for customizing clothes for a beggar costume:

  • Use black paint or similar to give your clothes a dirty look. Bleach, on the other hand, is a good option to fade clothes that still look new.
  • Thread the shirt well (the collar part) for this piece to have an aged look. When wearing, keep your shirt sleeves rolled up.
  • make small polite in the shirt and tears in the pants, especially in the part of the knees. If you have any unsewn parts, pull the thread even further and lengthen the future.
  • Still in the pants, cut the hems so they are uneven. In the case of shorts, try to tear or fray the hem.
  • Cut and paste pieces of patches in the shirt with buttons, even more in the part of the elbows. In pants/overalls, you can do this on your knees.

Avoid over-patching in the beggar costume. Leave that to a redneck outfit.

  • In the shoe, prefer a model that is old and a little open, like that sneaker that you haven’t washed and used for a long time. If you’re going to wear socks, wear one of each color (high top, of course) as well as slippers to give a sloppy tone.
