What quality ?

 

There are some pretty good "budget" ones out there if you look, they might not have the weight and EXACT look but are still reasonable.

 

If its off season a suit hire might have enough and can do a deal with you.

They really don't need to be of fine quality. The ones on ebay for a fiver would be fine, but are slightly too expensive. It's just for one song in a little show. three quid each would be fine. The ebay sellers must buy them from somewhere.

 

I was about to ask for what type of lantern, then I realised it was the wardrobe forum

 

That's exactly what I said when I was asked for 42 top hats.

I refer you to my earlier post. Most second hand ones come out of the hire trade as bulk clear-outs of old stock during replenishment. I used to buy damaged tail coats and morning coats for the fire shows as disposable items of "costume" because the really old ones were serge (flameproof).

 

Black spray or die and lots of mess and these might work?

How about these at £2.19 each plus carriage...?

Not quite trad top hat, but close enough?

Depends on the routine I suppose...

 

 

Or this one looks a bit more topper-ish...
