Lizzie -
What a wonderful gift from your friend! I imagine those are rare finds now and not many skirts have survived over the years or have become separated from the sweaters.
Every once in a while I'll find one of the Ballantyne cashmere cardigans with a matching same color knit...
Here's an ebay listing of a wool plaid skirt with a Hadley label - proving that Hadley did make wool skirts -
170580091751
and a plaid wool cape by Hadley -
250755757227
Is the applique work on the sweater machine sewn or hand sewn?
I'd like to see a tight closeup of the outside and inside stitching where the sweater is appliqued.
I agree with Lizzie.
Do the buttons on the sweater match those on the pocket of the skirt?
What does the inside of the sweater look like in the area of the plaid applique work?
May we see any labels please?

I agree with Poppy.
The beadwork is very similar to what you see on the gorgeous hand-beaded cardigans from Hong Kong in the late 50s/early-mid 60s time era.
Your cheongsam was probably custom made by a Hong Kong tailor/seamstress shop for a Hong Kong visitor.
Mr. Dino's have done very well for me and novelty prints are very popular
right now on Etsy. I would think the figural dog print would sell fast at a good price.
I would date the Mr. Fine blouse circa 1974. I had almost the exact same
shirt a few years with the original dated price tag.

Gorgeous jacket!
Seeing it lightened I'm thinking it might be opossum - I had a dress with a fur collar that looked very similar - the original hang tag said it was opossum -
