You'll need:

- top hat
- borrow a walking stick or cane to complete the look

1. If you don’t have access to a bow tie, make your own using a strip of patterned material – one of dad's old ties for example, tie in a bow and cut to size, sticking or sewing the edge over so it doesn't fray.
2. Add extras such as a golden ticket made from shiny paper, stuck into a jacket pocket or onto the top hat.
