Have you ever dressed like a character from a film?

Not including Hallowe'en, have you ever dressed like any character from a favourite film,
and worn the outfit during regular business hours or a weekend day or night?
Personally, I would love to put together an Indiana Jones outfit to wear for fun on a hot summer day, sweat and all.
Photo's of you in your outfit and the film character that inspired it would be most interesting to see.

I recently adopted a Dr Who outfit, pairing a slim navy blue pinstripe suit with blue converse and a white shirt.

A fedora transforms whatever you are wearing into some film character. Dark suit + fedora = gangster (take your pick). Add a trench and you're Rick Blaine. Exchange the suit and trench for khaki's and a leather jacket and now you're Indiana Jones, Alan Quartermaine, or Howard Hughes. Since I am never without a hat (usually a fedora) some folks think I'm always dressed like a movie character.

Yes, naked like those male Appreciation stars in an adult film.

I know a lot of people want to try and dress like James Bond, with varying degrees of success.

Why did you spell Halloween with an apostrophe?
