Question: How to Dress like the Philosophe Baron de Montesquieu!?
I have to do a class presentation, giving a speech on Montequieu's views and ideas!. But I also HAVE TO DRESS UP LIKE HIM!.
So what should I wear to look like a Baron of the Second Estate (the class of nobles) using everyday clothing items!.
Any ideas would be great!

And also please give me some advice on what to say in the speech!.

ThanksWww@QuestionHome@Com

Hmm!.!.!. You might want to try Bermuda shorts (to emulate culottes!.!.!. I'm not sure if he wore them, but I do know higher classes in French society did) and long socks, with a nice jacket and a shirt with a ruffled front (like something from Forever 21)!.

He wrote the Spirit of Laws and believed that political and social behavior shouldn't be looked at alone, but should have other factors in it (like economics and geography) when studying it!.

Look up his book, it would help a lot!. :]Www@QuestionHome@Com
