Are you kidding? I grew up 'Elvis'-My mom is the #1 Elvis Fan (at least in Fishkill, NY.) She even confided to my ex-wife that she married my Dad because he looked like 'The King'!

A number of years ago I had the good fortune to work on restoring the 'Great American' costume on display in Vegas. To let ya'll in on a little secret-it was nasty and cheap (though flashy at a distance). The 'rhinestones' were not even glass but plastic!

I'm sure when the King put it on though, his aura transformed it into the wonderful,elegant garment we remember...
