A multi coloured suit owned and worn by Jimi Hendrix.

The suit made for the Lord John Australian tailors outlet in Perth Australia. Composed of a highly stylized 4 button front closure with flared cuffs and concertina rear vent, pure wool in multi coloured bronze red and cream stripes. Hipster trousers.

This suit was recovered from a large batch of clothing and tapes found at the New York Office of Mike Jeffrey (the UK manager for Hendrix and The Jimi Hendrix Experience) in 1970, and many of these items appeared in Bonhams London auction in 1994. This is the last remaining suit from that collection.

This suit is in overall excellent condition. However, please note that it has just been observed that several small holes (likely moth, though possibly hash burns) on the outer layer of the fabric exist on the bottom front left of the jacket.

This is an online only sale. Items may be viewed upon appointment in New York City.
