That suit and the shoes remind me a lot of the one Christopher Reeve wears in the movie "Somewhere in Time"...

Personally, my main gripe with today´s fabric selection is that if you want a really good heavy weight fabric you have to break the bank, whereas back then it was more available... If you're on a budget you can't even dream of getting your hands on nice fabric and i nstead have to get the so...
