Question This is my favorite suit. I was wondering when it was made and who came up with the design for it? It's incredible.
Answer Hi David,
The suit was made for Elvis and first worn on stage at Lake Tahoe in 1974. That suit, like all of Elvis' suits in the 70's, were designed and made by Bill Belew and Gene Doucette.
