No, not all mimes wear suspenders. While the classic portrayal of a mime often includes suspenders as part of their iconic black-and-white striped outfit, mimes can wear a variety of costumes that may not include them. The essential elements of mime performance are more about expression and movement than specific clothing items. Ultimately, the attire varies based on the individual performer and their creative choices.


Why do mimes wear black and white?

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.
