Would that be a cravat/ascott you are trying to find? There are quite a few on ebay, and if you can't find a good one, you can use a scarf

Do not forget the pin!

She's usually got all sorts of things lying around. I bought a lovely silk-faced frock coat off her this very weekend.

If it's cravats any 'gents' outfitters should do one (I get mine in Chichester)
The suit rental places usually sell neckware...
Try the wedding outfitters as well...
Or ask Rosie down at Help The Aged to look out for one for you might be able to help with the trousers as well...
Best of luck...

I recommend wedding outfitters for a selection of cravats, my local such shop hires them out for £15 a time, or sells them for £30- so wear it twice and it's paid for itself!
