    They do small order, custom work, and that is a second option especially if you are not able to do it yourself. Here's the link again.

    Custom Uniform Company

    Let's not leave this option out either, meinfs.

    The Eton jacket isn't really a PC, it's probably closer to the Brian Boru jacket, or the mess jacket. As I read up on this subject, the advice seems to be to make the Eton into a formal jacket rather than to try to make it into a fake PC.
    I've also seen advice from some of the members in this thread to buy a used Eton jacket from a tuxedo rental shop and change the buttons. You have lots of options and can bump it up to what you are able to afford.
