This is a Ben Zuckerman suit, dating from the mid 1960's- it's perfectly tailored with interesting seams around the bust and a silk scarf that compliments the outfit perfectly.

The grand entrance ensemble, Ben Zuckerman's fantastically beautiful accomplishment; a full-length evening coat, of wool and mohair, worn over it's own silk brocade gown. The coat, in delectable champagne colour, is lined to match the daffodill yellow gown. From our famous designer salon, it has above all, the Bonwit Teller touch.

Dating from the end of Ben Zuckerman's career, in 1967, the green coat on the far left shows that Zuckerman was still doing classic shapes even as fashion was moving on.
The coat is double breasted and has contrasting buttons. The model still wears a hat, while the majority of women were going hatless.
