Five different variations on the 1970 “Chain Suit”. On the first picture, he’s NOT wearing the original White Macramé Belt”. But this is the first belt Elvis used on stage with this suit.

The second picture shows the Red Macramé Belt, the third picture shows the combination with the Brown Macramé Belt” which looks the most complete because the belt seems to match  the holders of the chains on the suit.

The fourth picture is the Chain Suit with the original belt. You can see the chains. Finally the fourth version this time in combination with a black karate type belt.

During the November 1970 tour, a jumpsuit called Lace Suit was introduced. On this suit, an “old” belt was used. It was the same macramé belt that was used on the 1970 White Cossack Top Jumpsuit which Elvis used during his January/February 1970 engagement in Las Vegas and during some of the Houston concerts. In August 1972, this same belt would make a comeback in Las Vegas, this time in combination with a two-piece suit and a very colourful shirt.
