Tapping into everyone ELSE's creative genius

I need a "cabin boy" outfit for a Saturday night tavern event having to do with pirates... suggestions?

What does a cabin boy wear?

Hair/hat suggestions?

And it's Wednesday - we leave Friday. I have tonight and tomorrow night to "make some magic".

Forecast: no sleep.

Did you ever Bluebeard? The cabin boy was a buxom blonde named Mr. Prostitute.

Bad me. Hubband corrected me: the movie was Yellowbeard, not Bluebeard. Sigh.

Oh, and his response to "what does a cabin boy wear?":
Usually the Captain.

Hear, hear... I was going to recommend wearing a chastity belt!

But D didn't specify whether she is a cabin boy in the royal navy or just any old pirate ship ... you could always don the little midshipman uniforms, like in Master and Commander? Or just the splinters and wrecked navies?

Oh now I am sad thinking of Billy Budd!
