A brown velvet jacket and pants ensemble with gold toned bead and faux pearl inlays, worn by Liberace on the cover of his The Impossible Dream album. Together with a brown silk vest with ornate decorative faux pearl inlays throughout that ties around the back, a white cotton tuxedo bib with lace ruffles on the front, a brown velvet bow, and gold toned rope thread entwined with faux pearl and iridescent stone pieces.
