Holy stuff, that's a lot of tunic-y goodness right there!

I'm guessing that's almost as many as Burt Ward ever had! Fantastic!

Thanks Rick!!!

There were a couple more that didn't make it in the shot I think.
These were the limited run we did with the fabric we got that we think was the end of the bolt of the screen used vests.
We sent a swatch to Mark and in his photos of the swatch with the original vest, he had to put it over the "R" so it wouldn't disappear, it matched so well.

Back when the show originally ran, I would have killed to have had this costume!!!

We've done several more after these as well with a closely matching fabric.

I have no doubt that Lynne has sewn up more costumes than were used on the show!!

I searched the Pantone color referenced on the fabric seller's site, and I guess it's a textile number. Attached is a screen grab of a site I ended up on when I searched "Pantone Color# 18-1655 TPX."

I think I'm going to go ahead and order it. I'm not making a tunic for display, it's for a costume for my wife (if I can get her to wear it!). So, since it's for a woman, it already won't be screen accurate! Speaking of screen accurate, when were Robin's tights that off-white color, and when were they flesh toned? Was it different seasons? I tried to search that info here, without success.

Cheers!

Rick
