I've got long hair and I dressed up like this in about 95 96 for Halloween. This was about the time the wrestler changed his appearance to the white makeup with black eye lines. I had a friend with a big leather trench coat like that and it was easy to find black clothing. My friends did some white make up on me and a semi decent job of doing the black lines.
I'm a husky guy and tall so it was an easy fit.
We just thought it was for a laugh but kids in the neighborhood actually thought Sting had arrived in town. I wore the costume for about an hour to take my nieces and nephews out and in the dark in dim lighting, people said it looked like the real thing. Most people were impressed but it was the little kids that went nuts for it. It's funny when I think about it now, the more I told them to go away, the more excited they got, the more angry I got, the more they thought I was in character.
I had to wash off the paint and take off the jacket after about a dozen kids kept bugging us.
