Well, what we need to find you is a show where people are doing driving. 
 Then you can see what the grooms that ride on the carriages wear. 
 And talk to them and find out where they get their show clothes.  
 
Every now and again I do see television coverage of driving shows on PBS or 
cable.  You have a VCR, right?  I'll try to keep an eye out and grab 
something for you.
 
The other obvious thing would be to find you a magazine for people who are 
into driving, and send it to you -- that way you could see the ads.  
Unfortunately, a lot of my local newsstands have stopped carrying as many 
horse magazines as they used to -- and I don't remember seeing that many 
issues devoted to driving anyhow.
 
Maybe Mike May or Vicki Nichols might have some ideas of where to look?  Or 
you could ask around where you bought your carriage and harness and stuff?
