This costume is an orange body sock covered in pictures of boots.
Harriet de Winton uses old fabric like curtains, sacks and blanket (look at her 'The Adventures of Pinocchio' pictures) The style of this costume is inspired by plays I have seen that use simple costumes. It includes orange trousers, brown top and a light brown flat cap with big black boots.
This character's costume would be basically made from strips of shiny paper and feathers.
These costumes would be 'found', so the costumes would be looked for in charity shops. Looking at the Phaidon Costume theatre manual it says that costume designers 'find' csotumes in vintage shops, charity shops and hire clothing instead of making it.
