Sigh. I saw [livejournal.com profile] loree's post about that great dress so I started looking around for something for me to wear to [livejournal.com profile] tithonium's birthday. A friend pointed me to Drac-in-a-Box and The Dark Angel. Two sites that have a lot of things I want but aren't in my size.

Does anyone know of a place a big guy could get clothes that don't look like my Mom bought them or I'm 95 and headed for the golf course?

Or if you know someone who makes clothes like this and wouldn't mind making a few bucks I can pay.

I did a little research and I found a pretty good pattern to bastardize, I think
http://www.lafnmoon.com/frock_coat.html

I don't know how much you're looking to spend, but its looking like for shirt, vest and frock coat, materials are going to be between $120-140. As for labor, you just pay me what you feel good about. I'm only a costumer, afterall, and only a B rated one at that ;)

How soon do you need it done by? Do you have a measuring tape? ;)

That looks good to me.

Well within my imaginary budget. ;)

In an imaginary world Saturday, but realistically before October would be great. Somewhere but if not I can easily pick up one.

Oh dear, no chance by this Saturday. I could have it done by May or June, though.

I sent you an email with questions to clarify what you wanted measured. Did you not get it?

Oh. Hmm. I'm looking and I'm not finding :( Perhaps it wound up in my spam filter somehow? Tell you what, send it to my gmail, llarken@gmail.com

That email has far less traffic
