Question ERA? Men\'s Suit STRANGE LAPEL and Pockets.

Can anyone out there help me on Dating of this Mens Suit. Made of Jersey type Polyester, strange Shaped lapels and matching pockets, Plaid Acetate lining. Pants have sewn pleats (Is that what they are called?), Belled like the 70's, and the waistband has 2 front only belts that loop through and button with elastic back waistband. Is this Western, 70's Disco or maybe Rockabilly, I really have no idea. You can click on the photo to enlarge them. Thanks

I think I'd go with a 70's Western angle on this one

Unusual lapels! I don't think I've seen any so CURVY!

I would go with 70s as well, great raspberry color and very unique detailing! Great suit for a band member.

Definitely 70s, and the Western angle is good for eBay. But, I gotta say it also reminds me of " disco pimp wear"! Don't know if that still goes over big on eBay, but it used to....

Yes, 70s!

The lapels/pockets and color are way cool, but I can't decide between "Western" and Anne's "disco pimp wear"... (Leaning toward the latter, actually...)

I agree disco, the really high wasitband on the pants is so 70's too..

Thanks for all of your advice, I went ahead and listed it as ROCKER DISCO at yvettesattic on Ebay if you would like to see. I'm not getting many watchers at this time. Thanks If it doesn't sell I will probably try the Western Angle.

I see a 70's Disco Cowboy Suit. lol
Hey, even the pokes in El Paso got into the disco trend back then.

Just an update, changed the Listing to Western Cowboy Disco and it worked. Sold the Suit, Thanks so much.
