so is it ok if there is a zipper showing or should i try to get rip of that

We are not Costume Nazi's by any stretch of the imagination. A visible zipper is not a problem.

We encourage better costuming, but you start with what you got and you make it better as you go.

Many start with a basic tunic to cover a t-shirt, then they paint it with a symbol, then they add period pants, then they add some gloves/bracers/accessories, then they replace the t-shirt with a period shirt, then they get boot covers or actual period boots.

It's all one step at a time. Sure it'll look better with the zipper covered up (perhaps a sash or something might work well), but if it looks better than what you had before, then you're making progress and no one will complain about your costuming. We all are limited by time, effort, and money.
