Mise-en-scene: Costume

Here is my talent Alfie. He is dressed in all black, with a black bike against a black background.
Black has connotations of evil, darkness and criminal activity, precisely the sort of light I would like to shine upon this side of the character I am representing.
Upon asking fellow classmates what how they would stereotypically dress a criminal, the most prevalent answer was in anything black.
Furthermore, upon asking classmates how they would dress a homeless person/alcoholic, they said that they were most likely to be wearing ill fitting clothes and a big coat.

I feel my research into stereotypical costumes of both homeless and criminals has inspired this look for my character.
