Gangs of New York Dead Rabbits Costume
Martin Scorsese’s 2002’s “Gangs of New York” was a labor of love for Scorsese. It centers on Amsterdam Vallon, (Leonardo DiCaprio), who as a child, witnesses the dead of his father during one of these gang wars by the hands of the leader of the Native gang, Bill “The Butcher” Cutting (Daniel Day-Lewis). Amsterdam resolves to seek vengeance against him when he grows up. The battles between the two gangs, "The Natives", and "The Dead Rabbits". The Dead Rabbits wore shirts dyed with horizontal red stripes, and thick “leather” armor to protect them from the two weapons of choice: knives, axes, blades, machetes clubs and hammers. This is a full costume set screen used by one of the members of the “Dead Rabbits”. It comes with horizontal stripped red dyed pleated “bib front” button down shirt, thick button cotton red pants, two forearm leather armor pieces and is finished with a leather and metal buckle belt. This costume, as are all the costumes from the movie, is based on painstaking historic research, and is accurate down to the every detailing. The costume shows signs of wear and mud from the scenes it was used in. Comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. (The shirt and pants are size S).
