need plus sz shirt

[onthego317 4]

I'm posting here out of desperation and thought that maybe somebody could help me. My husband and I are going to a surprise 70's themed birthday party on July 23. I have my costume but I cannot find one large enough for him. Does anyone have a 70's mens costume or a shirt in a sz 4x that they no longer need? I will be happy to pay for it and the shipping.

I would love to be able to find a button down shirt that's "brady bunch" looking or even a satin or shimmery shirt. I'm thinking it could even be a ladies shirt as long as it would fit him. I'm not sure what size ladies shirt would equal a mens 4x. He's 59-60" arould his middle and he will not wear anything tight.

I've searched all the local thrift shops & ebay and have not found anything.

THANKS!

Okay, an easy way out is to simply tie dye a white T-shirt. It's really easy to do! He can go a a Jerry Garcia-type Grateful Dead=peace dude kinda of guy.

Or you can pick up some fabric from the fabric store a make a simple long vest (if you wantto get fancy you can glue fringe at the bottom (using fabric glue. This would be really easy to sew even if you didn't have a sewing machine!

Ok, I love the last post....tie dye all the way. I found an Iron on peace sign made of sequins at Hobby Lobby (or Michael's) that was $3. There ya go...tie dye shirt and iron on a peace sign. Voila!
