Measurements? No...I doubt anyone would know that. The best thing to do would be to just guess by looking at a couple pictures of his jacket.

Dont take measurements from the actual character. If you're making the jacket yourself, adjust it to your body proportions or size. Follow the pattern you are using. Use your best judgement on length, etc if you have to modify the pattern.

there are very few people who have the dimensions of an anime character. seriously, how often do you see a girl with measurements like those in oh-so-many anime? one word that describes these rarities: MODELS

If you have access to the DVDs, one of your best references is gonna be the art galleries. One of them is bound to have the character sketches, so you can see the costume from all sides, and sometimes close-ups on details.

Costume play = Cosplay.

It means dressing yourself in the costume of an anime or game character, as well as doing anything else you can to make yourself look similar to that character. It's a popular activity at conventions.

There are some in the north of England though. You could always head south of the border.

AbbyShot sells a Alucard Trenchcoat i believe, I know they have Vash's in Leather. The Alucard Trench is Pretty Accurate but i'm not sure if they have the Measurements up there too. You can get it custom fit before you buy it. Lemme link ya...
