Looking for some help, but it's very specific.

Looking for some help, but it's very specific.
I'm trying to source a late-Victorian style white cotton long sleeved collarless shirt for a male colleague. It needs to comfortably fit a 64" chest/waist (18.5" neck).
The easy option would be to make one, but this isn't part of my job any more so that option is out.
None of my regulars stock this size.
Must be UK-based supplier. Must be suitable for a middle class context in the 1890s, so modern dress shirt styles will not do.

@jandi @Fredatron sadly I don't really know well UK-based suppliers, I'm wondering if maybe Pinsent Tailoring can do it ?

@jandi @Fredatron no problem for the surprise tagging, it was fun to think about it (and to see that I really know a lot more womenswear brands than menswear^^)
