Lancerlady Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Although I loved Phantom doing 1812 that year, I forgot they had the "Blue arm" on their uniform that year. What was with the "Blue Arm" and purple cape? Was it just for "GE" sake? 20 years..makes me feel old! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMichael1230 Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Just design, however the red white and blue represented the colors of the "french" flag. ~G~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
84BDsop Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 (edited) Actually, it was royal purple. The show had no French themes that I know of aside from the French Natl. Anthem quote in 1812. Probably just looked #####in...I'll ask Skywench....even though she was in the guard and not the musical line...

kevingamin Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 Cesario didn't start working with Phantom unil 1987, I believe, the year they brought out the all-white uniforms for the first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masterfitter Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 Michael was indeed working with PR before 1987...we sewing ladies loved having him there - so much fun! I know from first hand experience that he was on board for this show - the sleeve was purple - it was a spandex fabric that was sewn over the top of the white sleeve. The head gear that the guard wore - I made that twice back then...we won't discuss this. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But do you know what it meant? Or was there a meaning to it? Blue on the arm and purple on the cape?

Jd83 Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 Having worn that uniform in 1983, I can tell you it's a purple arm. The uniform is also a Cesario design. Not only was the arm purple, but the outside of the cape was red and the inside was fuschia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
84BDsop Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 IIRC the glove was purple also! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
