Santa Claus has been portrayed as everything, from an elf to a tall gaunt man. He has worn a Norse huntsman’s animal skin and a bishop's robe. The modern-day Santa is a blend of a variety of stories from different countries.

Santa Claus is usually represented as a jolly, plump, white-bearded man wearing white-cuffed red trousers, a thick red coat with white cuffs and collar, white gloves, heavy-duty black leather belt and boots. There are regional differences in the costumes that Santa wears. In the United States, he wears a velvet jacket or a fleece and pants with a belt, matching fur trimmed boots and hat. In some European countries, he wears a long red robe with a hood.

How to Dress-up like Santa

• Things that you require –
  
  • Black Men's Belt
  • Red Stocking Caps
  • Red Sweatshirts
  • Red Sweat suits
  • White Gloves
  • Jingle Bells
  • Pillowcases Or Laundry Bag
  • Pillows
  • Lipstick Or Rouge
  • Lots Of Cotton Swabs
  • Fake Beards

• Put some bright red trousers.
• Tuck your trousers into boots so that you can show off the white feathery trim on your boots.
• If your belly does not quite tremble, then you can bring it up to Santa’s standard by adding some padding.
• Put a red jacket to match the trousers. The wooly border around the hood and sleeves keep Santa warm on a cold Christmas Eve.
• Add a wide black leather belt with a gold buckle over your jacket. This should be quite tight so that your tummy spills over it slightly.
• If you do not have a real moustache and beard like Santa Claus, then wear a fake white moustache and beard.
• Wear a wig of wavy white hair to go with your beard.
• Wear some half moon spectacles at the end of your nose.
• Put on a light red color hat with white feathery trim. Slide the back over your head while holding the trim at the front. Let the pomp-pomp dangle down at one side over your shoulder.
• Slip on some white gloves on your hands.
• At last, put your hands on your belt buckle or on your belly and let out your best ‘Ho Ho Ho!’
