Pixie suit arrived today. DHL had it scheduled for Thursday but showed up today (Tuesday). Appears to be very well made and is an excellent fit for me (Size 7R in this case). Lining is much more comfortable than the original while still having the same outward appearance. Haven't tried out the suspenders/dead-man's lifting straps yet so can't report if they are short or not as someone previously mentioned for their suit. Even if they are, I wouldn't complain as everything else looks good and there isn't anywhere else to get a correct looking wartime or postwar suit in anything bigger than a size 6.
Well done Jim for spearheading this project ![]() ![]() ![]()
