1956. Opening an exhibition. 1950s cut DB suit. Generous fit.

1975- The leisure suit (even James Bond wore one during this period)...BUT do check out the extremely nicely tailored short sleeved safari jacket on Tan Sri Osman Samsudin Cassim

Shaking hands with Rafidah Aziz. PInstriped suit. 1969  Image from thenutgraph

Batik shirt, 1974

More leisure suit 70s - in China. Note the pocket square, shift cuffs, four button jacket.

1971 - with delegates from China. 

Malaysians wore proper suits with nice lapel roll back then

1974. With Foreign Ministers from ASEAN countries. Tailoring that we don't see in most ministers from anywhere these days. Check out the trousers on all of them. No break, slight break. Fabulous. Check out the trousers on the son of Tun Razak, the sad chap who is now running Malaysia (into the ground) and see how sad things are today. Photo from maruwiah.com
