Norrington as Scruffington is a bit like Marmite: to many fans, he's a "love it or leave it" matter. I'm firmly in the latter camp, but I still favour Scruffington over Admiral Nirringbö of the United IKEA fleet. And I should probably be grateful to Mr. Scruffington - after all, if it wasn't for his presence and the lack of Gillette, I'd probably never thought of writing PotC fanfic in the first place! :-)
Anyway, here's a link with pictures of the Scruffington-outfit, inklusive coat, waistcoat, breeches and boots. Norrington, it seems, has lost his original breeches and waistcoat along the way, so as far as I can see, the only "naval connections" are the hat and the coat.
PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN COSTUMES
"Mr. Gillette, please come to the information desk and pick up your commodore!"
If you scroll further down the page of that blog, you'll also find pictures of the fine clothes worn by our favourite pocket-Napoleon, Lord Cutler Beckett. Then there's Davy Jones' organ, and costumes of assorted pirates, and Barbossa in his early days.
And as I finally managed to install
say_aye 's "Wee Norrington and li'l Gillette" mood theme on Dreamwidth as well, I even have an appropriate mood for this entry! Huzzah!
Edited for Freudian typo: "Hate it or leave it?" D'oh!
