How to dress like a mafia gangster?

First off, i dont wanna hear about those lame fake gangsters today, who shout swag and yolo everywhere they go, because those aren't real gangsters. I was thinking of being a mafia family for halloween, me and my friends will be the Corleone family. I am Don Corleone(Michael Corleone). I thought about combing my hair back, wear a dark grey suit with a nice tie and grey hat with a long trench coat. Nice polished shoes too. Since I'm fifteen, i can't have a cigarette or cigar in my mouth, so is a tooth pick ok? Anymore tips would be appreciated! Thanks :D My Godfather is a Don, but he lives far away, so this was my only option other than the movie :D thanks again

  • -Slicked back hair is a must if you're aiming for the classic mobster look, though you could sureley go for a short hair approach to modernize it a little bit. Use pomade or a pretty strong gel.

    -If you haven't bought one yet, pinstripe suits are my favorite; I prefer a medium gray color with nice white pinstripes going down. If you can, add a bright colored handkerchief (red is nice) to your left breast pocket. Make sure it shows.

    -When you pick your tie, avoid really bright colors. That just kills the look. A darker red, maroon, blue, grey, or black tie is classy. Remember, your inside shirt/collar shirt needs to not only blend with your tie but your suit, too.

    -Go for a brimmed hat, maybe like Frank Sinatra. He was no mobster, but he knew how to dress classy. Put it at an angle (tilt it to one side).

    -Ditch the trench coat unless it's cold where you live.

    -Look for some candy cigars like these if you really want to have that cigar look OR buy a fake cigarette that can emit smoke and light up when you blow into it. Toothpick works, too.

    -Shoes: Glossy black shoes are always nice, but make sure you're comfortable walking in them.

    Optional:

    If you don't want to use a toothpick or want to use it with your toothpick, you could use a cane. Just don't spin it around and hit someone with it. LOL

    Have fun!
