Preferably wear a bodice that can be laced up in the front. It should be low enough so that the blouse can be seen through above it.
Mini skirts or long skirts will do, just make sure that if you are wearing long skirts that it has long slits on the side. The scarf is tied around the head. Match it with a pair of knee high boots or taller. You would have to use really dark eyeliner to complete the look.

Now, the outfit is composed or a tight fitting black pants or leggings, whichever you own that is tucked inside a tall black boots. You will need a top blouse with a higher neckline and jabot with lace. You will also need a brocade jacket or a pirate's coat. It should have an oversized cuff as well as a wide lapel with buttons.
