    No personal experience with them however, they made one of the nicest Santa Suits for a Santa in the UK that I have ever seen.

    Possibly

    I may be mistaken, but I think ForresterModern (Jeff) may have one of their made to measure Inverness style capes. Check with him.

    Yup. Got mine in black and light grey houndstooth, ala' Sherlock Holmes, three years ago. Love it, very heavyweight in the fabric and custom size made just for me. Nicely lined. Good people to deal with.





    I would not hesitate to buy this again. The folks make general costume and fantasy wear, as well as some specific period wear and steampunk. But the Inverness--Dickensian cloak is spot on.

    I ordered a cape clasp from them and they were very quick to ship it and pleasant to deal with.

    VMac3205 makes capes. Arlen, McMurdo and I all have one of them and can attest to their goodness. You might try PMing her.

    When given a choice, most people will choose.

    Wonderful news, thank you for the information. Now I just have to find a plausible excuse for justifying the purchase (to my dear sweet girlfriend)!
