Quick Search & Idea collection for a Smoke Costume

The task description follows here:

The theatre house of Jena is working on the production of the open-air piece ‘King Ubu‘, The central character should wear a suit-like costume that smokes allover at certain times. The actor should be able to start/stop the smoke by himself. If technically necessary a storing tank can be included in the costume in form of a backpack or something similar. Filling the storing tank could also be part of the show.

Search for potential solutions for this smoking suit! Your suggestions can whether be more technical oriented (How would it be possible to distribute smoke between textiles & skin?) or they can focus more on the design perspective (How much smoke out of which holes in the suit would be needed for a cool effect?).
Collect (buzzwords, short descriptions) & show (pics, sketches) your ideas in a short but self-explaining version!
