Looks more like a suite from Carnaby Street, early 60's, flower
power, ban the bomb era.....maybe a lead singer of a very long
forgotten beat group "Igor and the Ruskies' a one hit wonder with
"Ferry across the Volga"............. ::)

I think it looks more late 1960's and would guess 1968/9. There were plenty of jackets and coats with a similar style back then. A great time for music too.
