About MeThis elegant cream wool suit was worn by Carole Tyson who married in Epsom, England, in 1967.

The short fitted jacket was worn with a straight knee-length skirt, black leather gloves and a brown scarf to match her shoes. In the late 1960s natural colours dominated fall and winter fashions.

The dress and coat suit were a popular 1960s alternative to the more familiar long white dress. Mature women liked tailored suits with pencil skirts and cropped jackets.
