Looking for an Elvis suit

I'm looking for an Elvis-style suit with a Peter Pan collar and bell bottoms. The glitzier, the better. I haven't seen any so far, but maybe I'm looking in the wrong place. Any ideas?

Thanks!

    I have not seen any products that look like the Vegas-era King's jumpsuits. I suspect the Presley estate might have something to do with this! If you're just going to do a portrait and don't need the full length suit, maybe you could judiciously retexture the coats from these products?

    I seem to remember something in that line for Hiro3 over at RDNA once upon a time. But converting from a gen3 item would be pretty hit or miss. And my recollection coult be pretty far off. I think the outfit -- whatever it was -- was by Vince Bagna, though.

    For what it's worth, for something with a similar general sort of concept that I'm still working on (so not posted anywhere), I'm using this one: https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/vindicator-suit/93860/

    Without the boots, of course. Also, you'll need something like Wear Them All, if you don't already have it, to upconvert from V4 to anything else, or from Genesis to G3

    Vindicator has enough material zones that you can shader the fabric to white or sparkly or what have you, and then do something else with the belts and buckles and whatnot.

    If you definitely need the bellbottoms, you can also add the pants from this, and shader them with exactly the same fabric you use for the main suit: http://www.daz3d.com/flower-power (and also hide the belt and belt loops section by turning opacity strength to zero in the Surfaces tab)

    On the same concept, there are also these: https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/70s-bell-bottom-jeans-for-genesis/107280/

    Should upconvert fairly well, both sets.

    Another option might be this: https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/toolboi-winter-collection/110662/

    That said, while I have Toolboi Winter and it upconverted to Genesis 2 just fine, I haven't tried it with G3M yet. Probably should; might work better than Vindicator, and it at least has a fit-over-boot-cut bottom, rather than a fit-inside-boots leg. THAT said, since it's designed to read as leather, it might be a bit too thick. We shall see...

    OMG, that last one is perfect! Might have to retexture, but I think that will do.

    I do have that Toolboi Winter outfit, hadn't thought of using that. I'll check out the Regency and Pirate stuff too. I was toying with the idea of retexturing The Marquis outfit. It has a wonderful Peter Pan collar which doesn't like to behave in autofit. I really wish that outfit would get updated for G2M and G3M. It's such a great one.

    Thanks so much everyone for the ideas! I'll post the results. I have two characters- a male and a female- that need this outfit. My G3F has a penchant for tight, shiny gold 70s pantsuits. My G3M likes to dress wildly and disguises himself as an Elvis impersonator. They're in Vegas, so they blend in. LOL

    Oh, I forgot about these, if anyone is looking for bell bottoms: https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/70s-bell-bottom-jeans-for-genesis/107280/
