S.O.S. - Looking for specific wardrobe pieces...

[Sardonicus]

I need a big, furry pimp hat (like the Mad Hatter) and a funky pair of psychedelic platform sneakers... where in farkin' hell would I ever be able to find that? They have to be white, preferably.

It's for a send-up video piece we're doing on the industry...

Man, wish I had of known last week!

My wife made me throw out all the pimp clothes I was saving in my closet.

I hate SPRING cleanings. Last year I had to throw out my Corset from Rocky Horror, ohhhh the horror!

Come on, who ya kidding.


Career move?

 

[Sardonicus]

In some respects...

But not quite in the manner in which you're implying. *lol*

 

[Sardonicus]

Thanks!

Went to Theatrix but they're really limited in what they have.

There was a store on the south side of Queen just west of Spadina that sells all kinds of funky shoes. I have seen platform sneakers in there. Not sure if it's still there though... been a long while since I been down that way.

On Queen and John, just south of Grange Park, there's a store that specializes in theatrical costumes. I forget the name of the store, but it is an amazing place. If there's only one place in Toronto that has what you're looking for - this'll be it.

Malabar on McCaul?

 

[Sardonicus]

Which street? on Queen?

I'm assuming it's on Queen but i figured I'd ask to be sure. Typical male that I am, I hate not knowing where I'm going... especially when it's downtown.

Sard...

Looks like you'll be heading down my way. Stop in and see me. Around 4:30 would be perfect.

I' pretty sure the place he's talking about is Malabar on McCaul just north of Queen maybe 2 to 4 doors north on the west side, right across from the Goodlife fitness club sign. McCaul is either the second or third street west of University.

 

[Sardonicus]

Doh!

Malabar is the supplier to the film industry. They'll have exactly what I need! Thanks Spode.

And yeah NiteHwk, I'll stop by and give ya a ride home. I can take a hint. *lol*

Oh for Christ's sake, just borrow Sheik's.

 

[Sardonicus]

not for what I need it for.

 

[Sardonicus]

What about this one?

That's farking hilarious! Not to mention outrageous and patently offensive. It's perfect! Now do they have that in white?

Sorry NiteHwk. looks like I'm heading to Scarberia. Malabar doesn't have shit that outrageous. They've got the Fish tank shoes too.

No prob bro. Just get me one of those hats will ya? (Like the purple one) Only I like it in white or black. OK maybe even purple will do as well. I know it's a far time away... but now I know what I'm wearing this year for Halloween. I mean can you see it? Our office by that time is going to be in a much more public building at Church/Bloor. It will be on the sixth floor. I can see myself now riding up the elevator with a pimp outfit on. OMG too funny.

 

[TheNiteHwk]

and knowing what you do for a living makes it even funnier.

Exactly! rotflmao

Thanks for all the help!

Found an awesome white pimp suit with a white hat and killer Austin Powers platforms. It's obnoxious as hell.
