Paul in his pegasus T-shirt 🐴

Paper doll of Paul McCartney wearing tab-on versions of the clothes he wore to attend Knebworth Fair in Summer 1976.

Sandals, flared jeans and a rainbow pegasus T-shirt with pink-and-checks zip-up jacket: a peerless festival look. 🌈 🎶
(I was only going to make outfits for the dolls based on clothes worn on stage or in publicity pictures, but I'm afraid I broke my own rule here because the outfit was so lovely. Sorry for the intrusion, paper Paul.)
