DETAILS of the Jacket

- The front of the Leisure suit has embroidery details that tie directly into the "High Roller" theme from the back. The lower left side features a playful white French poodle sitting upright on its hind legs, surrounded by flying green dollar bills.

The back is detailed with a large, whimsical cartoon embroidery that is a highly stylized pop art image depicting a dapper gentleman in a bright blue tuxedo, high top hat, and holding a cigar next to a glamorous blond woman wearing a red evening gown and holding a long cigarette holder. At their feet sits a white French poodle. Stacks of green money bills line the bar table next to them, evoking a vintage "high roller" or casino-glam theme.

- Barrel cuffs
- Pointed western style chest pocket flaps.
- Silver snaps down the center placket and on the cuffs.

DETAILS of the Pants

- High waisted style
- Dramatic wide-leg fit that bells out into an authentic 70s flare.
