Mimes can wear other colors besides just black and white to portray their character more easily. I am still trying to find what mimes can wear as other colors to portray their character. The most common color mimes wear are black and white. These are known as the classic colors. Mimes wear black and white so that they have a neutral effect as well as making it easier to see the facial expressions. Also the use of these colors makes it so that the facial expressions are the center of the act. When the mime acts out something, such as a wall, the black and white make a neutral background for the subject. Wearing a color such as red or blue draws away the neutrality of the image in this case the wall.

What did outlaws wear?
Outlaws in the Wild West typically wore a mix of rugged and practical clothing such as denim jeans, button-up shirts, vests, cowboy hats, and boots. They often accessorized with bandanas, gun belts, and other items reflecting their particular style or gang affiliation. Many outlaws also wore clothing that helped them blend in with the general population to avoid detection by law enforcement.
