Halloween Help?

[ceebee_eebee]

Ok. So I realize that Hurricane Who takes place over Halloween. Which means that even though I don't usually cosplay at cons, I have to dress up this year.

So, I'm going as a member of the Happiness Patrol.

I've got the wig and the shoes covered. But I am having HELLLLLLA problems finding a cheap trench coat that would work. Does anyone have any suggestions where I could search that I haven't already?

Have you tried thrift stores for a trench coat you can have cut and hemmed to shorten?

I'm gonna sew it! I'm actually really psyched. I love sewing but I haaaaaaate sewing sleeves. Lucky for me, this is really just a kimono pattern with an early 80's collar and I've been assured the sleeves are super easy to do. YAAAAAY!
