WP threads - made in Thailand

[Bladerunner]

I had two pieces of WP fabric and wanted a custom shirt made for myself. In the Los Angeles area, there are hardly any tailors that will actually do it and the ones that will want $300 to make a shirt from scratch. I go to South East Asia to chill out at least once a year. In Bangkok there are thousands of Indian-owned tailor shops who will make a suit for an unbelievably low price. To make a long story short, check out my cool shirt and my wife's cool skirt - both made for less than $20 each, from the 35 year old pieces of fabric pictured.

Cheers,
Steve

Wow, really nice!  So, has your Wacky shirt streak remained unbroken?

That is pretty cool. It looks so retro.

Looks great...  but check out that woman in the background.... it's good to see that those skirts come in all sizes.  :-)

OMG that is funny!

Technically it hasn't been broken, but that's because I've sometimes worn a Wacky shirt underneath another shirt. For at least part of any particular day, the design was exposed for all to see.

I'd say both fabrics are a poly/cotton blend...the black is a bit softer. Neither are very stiff...guess that's just the way we look in pictures. Thanks for noticing. There are many lovely things one can purchase for dirt cheap in Bangkok...I'm sure you'd find something you'd like!

Actually, that's my mom.

If anyone has anymore of this kind of fabric I'd be interested in purchasing it...I need pieces at least 44" by 90."
