Ha. Too funny. Haven't seen it in probably 15 years but, I also watched The Roaring 20's night before last and definitely noticed that suit as it's out of the ordinary. In fact, when I read the title of this thread, the movie immediately came to mind.
As far as the aesthetic, I don't dig it...
How small is small? There is definitely stuff out there. I remember a white 30's 3 piece suit (belt back and inverted pleats on patch pockets, way cool!) I sold a couple years ago which was marked a 34. Average size back then was quite a bit smaller than today.
It's becoming more difficult to...
You'll probably end up paying anywhere from 6 to 20 times more for somebody to make you a suit vice buying vintage; especially if you're wanting something out of the ordinary. I'm assuming you're talking 30's-40's. There's plenty in good and great condition out there. You just gotta look. Yes...

I just got the Crosley - Mission "Stack-o-matic" in the mail yesterday. Played 78's all night on it tonight. The 78's sound good. The audio quality when playing cd's and newer lp's is very "AM radio". I guess you could call it "vintage sound". LOL. Overall, it's decent. Cheapie parts - made in...
