I am not the best at textures, but you may need to be a bit more specific.. Pinstripe as in "Zoot suit" or as in old jail house sort of thing? Sprout

It is a gangster suite that people wore in the 40's. Sorry, this is the only image I can find on the internet. There are blue and white stripes on it: 
They usually wore a top hat. Do you know where to get the suite? Thanx -Adam

Ok we will give it a go.... will try to post tonight if at all posible, if not, tomorrow at the latest Ok my wife is taking over :O)(she has a few questions).... Double-breasted a must? Tight or loose pinstripe pattern? she says this reference pic shows a loose pattern with stripes about an inch apart as opposed to a quarter inch apart. Oh and another question..... Male or Female outfit? Sprout nice ref pic btw :O)

Just a little note, this is the 30's/40's style of thing? Thet would have been more likely to have worn a fedora or trilby style hat than a top hat. "Wide-boys" here in the UK in the 40's wore this sort of thing with a trilby or a flat-cap. Top hats, by the 40's, were more likely to have been worn with evening dress/by Fred Astaire :) Paul

LoboUK, I am making a play poster for "Kiss Me Kate" and I have a picture here of a man wearing a pinstripe suite with a top hat in the play. But the top hat isn't what I am looking for right now, I need the suite. Thanx for the info, anyway =) Sprout, sorry for not explaining it clearly. It does need to be double-breasted, and a loose pattern would probably be better. If I need it to be more tight, I can probably change the texture a little. It is a male outfit too. Thank you very much!! -Adam
