Two requests

[fearmeforiampink]

One: Rollerblades. Can someone suggest where is good to look for them in London. If it's relevant, I'm after hardwearing ones and I wear size 12 shoes. I understand that zenmeisterin might be on hand to help out, but also might not be, thus I'd like to have some ideas of where to look.

Two: I'm wanting to get myself an Chinese style suit. Partly as costume for London changeling, but also as just something different to wear for formal occasions. What I'm after is a smart suit, of the style with the flat collar that doesn't fold over, and something of the suit jacket, trousers, shirt combination style. I'm after something fairly simple and not OTT - no multicoloured dragons flowing over it or suchlike. I'm willing to pay a reasonable amoung for it, as it will get used as formal wear as well as for roleplaying stuff. I have to admit I'm not even sure what the proper name for what I'm after is - I've come across several different names in my googling for it, and Wikipedia hasn't been all that helpful either. Any help as to the proper name for what I'm after, where to look, and how much to expect to pay would be greatly appreciated.

additionsdirect.co.uk do a Nehru jacket for £37 and a shirt for £13, that might be what you're looking for. The shirt isn't on the site though, but it's in the catalogue.

I love the high collar tunic-suit-top. Stylin.

Like this? mandarin collar?

Although when I picture mandarin collar it's usually a bit higher.

Here's a goth priest coat with mandarin collar, but it has a goofy cross on it

Good luck.

Yeah, what I'm after is with a shirt with that style of collar, but a coat collar that's the same sort of style and height.

The Gothity priest thing is somewhat the right style, apart from the big crosses, obviously. It's been ages since I looked on dracinabox...
