This Ben Zuckerman coat, in grey tweed, dates from the early 1950's. It has a very full skirt and a tight waist- very New Look.

This is a fantastic Ben Zuckerman suit in a pink boucle tweed. The coat is long and both the coat and skirt are lined in pale silk satin.
This suit has a 'sporty' feel to it- you could imagine wearing it for a walk in the woods or some other country pursuit.

This red wool Ben Zuckerman coat is a real beauty. It's double breasted with brass buttons and has a military feel to it. This coat likely dates from the mid 1960's.

From Ben Zuckerman's fall 1958 collection... a suit with a flared seven-eigths coat- jacket of 'new' navy knit-patterned wool tweed with a fluffy collar of black died lynx and widened sleeves.
This is a Ben Zuckerman suit worn by the lovely model Mary Jane Russell, who rose to the top of her field in the 1950's. She was a favourite of  Louise Dahl-Wolfe and it is estimated that 30% of Ms. Dahl-Wolfe's photographs featured Mary Jane.
