A double breasted tweed jacket with curved and notched peaked lapel together with matching trousers. The custom-made suit has a label in the interior proper right pocket reading in part, "Martin Schneider / Tailor / 35 Gt. Titchfield St., London W.1." with additional handwritten notations in black ink reading, "Ringo Starr" and dated "Oct 1964." Starr was photographed wearing this suit while standing next to his 1964 Facel Vega II Coupe, which was one of only two built with a 6.7 liter V8 engine, likely the reason for Starr posing with the engine of the car during a photo shoot.
