Wings Over America outfit
-
Does anyone know where or what to use to make the Paul's Wings Over America outfit? I've been thinking about dressing up as Wings Paul for Halloween or a Beatles convention. Much help would be appreciated! Thanks

There are a couple of ways to go about it. I got one made for Halloween this year by a local seamstress. She got the jacket material, lining, and the stones for the shoulders. It's more jacket-like than Paul's probably was. Also the white material on mine is shiny and wider - but suitable for a Halloween costume! I'm sure there are some places and people who can do a screen-accurate one. It's hard for me to tell if it's supposed to be white, off-white, or more pinkish (or perhaps that's just the stage lighting). Anyway, this is mine below, but I've seen some Paul tribute performers who have real nice replicas made - head to toe.

Paul actually had a lot of different outfits for that tour, the image posted above being the most famous. I think he had a jacket with a white collar and one with the pink. He also wore short jackets, black t shirts, white t shirts, and other stuff, I have even seen him onstage with white pants for that tour.

Ive been searching the net for a eternity trying to find a way to get a replica outfit, Ive found absolutely noting. I think the only way your gonna be able to do it is follow LetMeollI89s idea. id say its a Pinkish since the lighting at times was different at other times and the pink stayed. I also have seen the jacket with a blue trimming in this vid at the 0:39 point
I don't know if that was worn on stage, so yeah. just more you know. -
