Whether for Halloween, a toga party or any costume party, to take your gladiator costume to the next level, you’ll want to get some accessories, and there are plenty to choose from: the belt-apron, arm guards, shin guards, sandals with straps that go up the ankle, chest plates, swords, shields, and helmets. A tunic alone may get the Roman look across, but without the extras, it just won’t have the same impact.
