as long as you have enough useful and interesting information about the man himself why not dress up! It'll make your presentation more eye catching - or you could dress up as a lion to demonstrate Lewis' writings links to faith and his main character in the CoN?!
The dressing up won't be the problem. Find some baggy chino pants, a worn oxford cloth shirt, a sloppy tie, a tweed jacket, a battered fedora, and a big brown macintosh coat (the earthy Lewis referred to it as "dung-colored".) What'll be hard to duplicate would be the mannerisms. He liked to laugh long and loud and he could be abrupt and combative in conversation, yet could turn right around and be as considerate and gentle a man as you'd ever find. If you want a good description of what Lewis the person was like, look up a copy of Sheldon Vanauken's A Severe Mercy and read the chapters following "Encounter With Light".

That might look kind of wierd but if you like him and he needs to be known then go for it!!!!.
Oh, it would look wierd, all right - it looked wierd on Lewis. In one of my innumerable (and currently unfindable 
) books on Lewis, there is a photograph of him in his macintosh putting on his fedora. It's clear that the excrutiating care he gave to insuring his mental and spiritual house was in order came at the expense of his physical appearance - but that's a small price to pay for such exquisite thinking and imagination!

Hum. Fortunately I was born three years before Lewis died, or I'd be starting to believe in reincarnation.
