No tags besides a “Dry Clean Only”, so I don’t think it’s homemade
Looks like a cotton twill velveteen

Groovy wide notched lapels
Long set-in sleeves
Pocket welts, but no pockets
Princess seams
One button closure.
Pants:
Heavy duty metal back zipper
Yoke front
Elephant legs
Bottom of legs hem are discolored on the back. Is not noticeable at all, and I don’t think detracts from the garment.
Could press pleats on the front to make it look like a skirt
It is no wonder why we all love vintage: you can’t get something like this at the mall! It’s too amazing!
