Elvis Presley owned and wore this circa 1950’s outfit consisting of a vintage long-sleeved pink shirt, black pants and shoes. The iconic pink gabardine shirt with detailed saddle stitching on the collar and flap pockets are pairs with Elvis’s black gabardine Hollywood cuffed drop slacks with pink saddle stitching down the legs of the pants with matching pink inverted pleats that match the shirt. Elvis topped the outfit off with a pair of vintage black and white shoes. Elvis’ typical flair for fashion would set the world on fire with everyone wanting to copy his style. The pink shirt and black pants both bear labels from Lansky Brothers Memphis, where Elvis began purchasing his clothes as a young child and shopped until the end of his life. Accompanied by a color photograph of Elvis wearing a similar shirt, pants and shoes outside of Sun Studios, leaning against a Cadillac. Comes with a letter of provenance from Elvis’ Aunt Delta.
Estimate: 5000-7000
