Ezio Auditore is one of the most popular characters in the Assassins Creed series. Many cosplayers choose to dress up as him for conventions and other events, and his costume is relatively easy to put together. If you’re looking for a cool and stylish cosplay idea, consider dressing up as Ezio Auditore.
Remember that Ezio is a classy guy. He’s suave and sophisticated, so his costumes need to reflect that. Make sure you have a nice suit or cape and purchase brown boots instead of black ones (like most cosplayers seem to do).

But have you ever wondered how it’s done? Here are some tips on how to recreate Ezio Auditore’s look:
The Basics – Ezio’s Armor and Hood
Ezio Auditore of Assassin’s Creed 2 fame is known for his armor of black, white and red leather. His hood has become just as recognizable as the rest of his appearance.
Author
He dresses in this fashion during the majority of the game, only changing into new costumes after the memory sequence events. He wears this clothing during the first two phases of gameplay, with his primary costume being used for most of the first section of the game.
Armor
For armor, you’ll need to purchase a piece made out of red leather and white leather. The armor can be interchanged throughout the game, so if you want to change the look on stage, you can do so with ease.
The armor will cost $275, and the white leather will be $450. The red leather is a bit pricier at $650, but it’s definitely worth it for this kind of costume.
Hood
For Ezio’s hood, you’ll need to purchase a long black cloth item that you can wrap around yourself. This is the piece that drapes down your back and should be long enough to cover your entire head if you desire.
It’s typically worn just over the eyes, though you can choose to have it cover your face entirely if you so choose. This will cost $325.
Other Accessories
If you wish to purchase a replica of Ezio’s sword and arm bracers, they cost $300 and $90, respectively. These aren’t necessary, but if you want the most accurate look for your character, they can give it a nice finishing touch.
If you don’t have them already, I highly recommend purchasing long gloves that cover your entire arm (the type that reaches up to your mid-bicep). These will cost $20 a pair, and you’ll need two pairs for the entire costume.
The taller boots or shoes will cost $85 as well as a good pair of breeches, costing about $40. You’ll need an undershirt as well, which will cost $15.
As far as accessories go, you can either purchase a replica buckler like the one Ezio uses (this will cost around $120), or you can use a metal breastplate that vaguely resembles his look and is much more easily attainable.
The metal breastplate will cost you around $30. And finally, Ezio uses a crossbow as well as throwing knives, so if you would like to have these items, they’ll cost around $40 each.
In addition to the above list of supplies, be sure to purchase a long black cape that drapes over your shoulders, and this is the cape that Ezio uses in most of the game. This will cost $155, and it’s worth every penny for this incredibly accurate look.
If you don’t want to spend the money on items, there are also some things you can find around your home or store around for second-hand at thrift stores or yard sales.
A large red ribbon will do the trick for the belt, and you can also use a black or brown fabric belt to resemble his. You can usually find these items from your local thrift store, so be sure to store around.
Tips to Remember When Cosplaying as Ezio Auditore from Assassins Creed
Cosplaying as Ezio Auditore is not just about getting the outfit right but also knowing about his weapons and fighting style. Let’s explore the tips you need to know before cosplaying as Ezio Auditore:
Know about his outfit.
Ezio’s arsenal of weapons and tools is nothing without the right dressing. He wears a long-sleeved white shirt covered by a beige corset that has gold accents on the edges and on the front, where laces are tied together below his chest.
Over his corset, he wears an open long-sleeved jacket that is black with golden accents on the edges. He wears a pair of tight-fitting trousers tucked inside knee-high boots.
Ezio also dons bracers on both arms to protect himself from injuries while fighting using weapons. The bracers have metal buckles and are connected by leather belts around his wrists to ensure they don’t fly off when in action.
Know about his weapons and tools.
Ezio is equipped with hidden blades on both arms that are used for close combat. His primary weapon, however, is the crossbow which fires projectiles like bolts or poison darts to take out enemies from afar.
Ezio can carry up to eight projectile weapons for his crossbow at a time, so you need to make sure that you have all the necessary projectiles to complete your cosplay outfit.
Know about his fighting style.
Ezio’s fighting style is swift, stylish and composed with a variety of moves that are used with deadly accuracy. He can counterattack his enemies by evading attacks before landing a series of strikes on them, making him an expert hand-to-hand combatant.
Ezio can also use his hidden blades to take down multiple opponents at once by attacking them from angles they cannot defend against.
Conclusion
Just like with any cosplay, the most important things that you’ll need are passion and attention to detail. Those two things will make your cosplay look authentic and also keep you going with the motivation to put all of this together, so good luck!
