Need a MALE angel costume - quickly!

I found out today that I've got one week's notice to provide ds1 with a boy's angel costume. Too late for Ebay or guaranteed delivery online, and I have a full time job and an 8 month old too, so doubt I'll have time to make one. There seem to be loads of girls' angel costumes around, but looking online hardly any suitable for boys. So if anyone has found a suitably male/unisex angel outfit to fit a 6 year old in a shop and could point me in the right direction I'd be very grateful.....

Long white shirt, tinsel tied round the middle and a circle of tinsel as a halo!

What is all this buying of costumes!

white t-shirt - long (adult size?) buy plastic drfesing up breastplate - spray gold

buy a plastic helmet - also spray gold

make stiff not girly wings from cardboard - also spray gold - attach with ribbon crossed over chest - this could be a feature if ou can't get a breastplate

bare feet or cardboard legionnaires sandals - falt foot shape and laces of ribbon crossed over foot and up leg.

buy sword!

Make???? I'm already working from 7 am until this time of night by the time I've had to deal with nursery/school runs and afterschool activities as dh is working away a lot at the moment. I'd love to have the luxury of being able to make a costume but the chance of having time to gather all the bits and make it inside a week are just about zero. If make is the only option then ds1 will just have to miss being in the performance because I really can't do it.

You really can't find a shirt and some silver tinsel? It doesn't need to be anything more than that.
Its all my Ds's had for an angel at school.
