Help me find DS a pageboy outfit please

I am chief bridesmaid at a castle wedding in scotland in June. DS and DD are pageboy and bridesmaid, all outfits sorted apart from DS. The bridesmaid dresses and the men are in brown and the colour scheme is brown shades. DS will be 18 months and will probably be (just) in 12-18 months clothes. Can you find him anything suitable as the suits don't go that small. Thank you all.

I am really wanting brown if possible, he will look a bit odd in another colour. The brides DS is 6 and is giving her away as her dad has passed away, he will be wearing a kilt and is to be the only one doing so as a mark of love/respect to her scottish dad.

I've already looked at those sites, posted this in the hope of finding somewhere I hadn't thought of.

Great thought on the suit, but khaki will look so WRONG amidst the brown.

these sellers say they do from 6mths so might be worth phoning?

ja9 · 04/02/2008 21:38

i'll leave you to it!

good luck.

3andnomore · 04/02/2008 21:40

No sorry not snippy, thankful for all your suggestions, but I've tried them. I will try and link to the mens suits. The whole wedding is formal attire so DS would just look a knob in a nehru shirt. Yes, what I want is the mens suits but smaller, however they don't do them. Plan B is.........?

Sorry Ja9, very grateful for your help.

That could be just the thing but minus the bow tie, with a new shirt and with some gorgeous European style sandal/shoes. See only a manc gets it...
