Does anyone remember that fabric that changes colour depending on what angle you look at it from?

I want to find a shirt in this, for my father. I know, it's not really style, but I don't know where to put it.

I've tried looking for iridescent shirts, but that seems to just generally mean shiny shirts (and women's ones too, helpfully).

Anyone have any suggestions?

Oh, and just to keep things easy, I need it in a 2XL sort of size.

No problem.

Didn't make it to the shop, but will keep an eye open.

I did find another keyword that counts - shimmer!

Do you want me to keep my eyes open down here,need to go to my usual fabric shop this week.

Right,I found some.£4.99/metre.
Red/black,
teal/gold,
pink/silver,
red/ blue,
purple/?
Just let me know.

Teal/gold?

Red/Blue is the most likely-sounding stuff, I think. £5/metre for 3.5 metres is under £20 for materials, and then £40 for work? Ok, I will call my sister and try to get some sort of useful measurements ...

Cool.(It will be about £20 when you include thread,buttons and interface)

NotQuiteCockney · 27/06/2007 19:24

That's fine.

I have left a message with my sister, asking for measurements from an existing shirt.

Oh, to be clear - I'm leaving on the 5th, so if it's ready before then, that's great. But I'll still pay for it, if it's not. How do I pay you?
