Nice picture, thank you for sharing it with us.
Elvis looked great in black!
with GoldAttendance Belt
1971 11 XX to 1972 02 XX
elvis should have wore more black jumpsuits . too cool!
Did Elvis ever wear a different belt with this suit? Apparantly there was a belt made for this suit, but I've never seen a picture of him wearing it?
If there are any photo's I haven't seen anyto be perfectly honest there are not a great deal of photo's of Elvis in this suit as there are others!
Matt
I love this suit
Elvis looks so great in black

I didn't know that Elvis wore the "Black Pinwheel" jumpsuit at the 8:30 p.m. show in Jacksonville, FL on April 16, 1972?!?!?!?!? Is there any photos of the evening show to prove this?
He didn't. I think it's a "slip of the pen" on Matt's side. In Jacksonville Elvis wore the 1972 "White Pyramyd" during the afternoon show and the 1971 "White Fireworks" during the evening show.

Didn't Elvis had this suit also on..when he played hawaii in '72?
I saw some footage of that concert..and he wore a black suit also there..and i always believed it was this suit..i'm i correct on that one?

I think you're confused because in both cases he wore a black jumpsuit with a red lined cape and a red scarf, but were talking about two totally different jumpsuits. In Hawaii he wore the "Black Conquistador" , which is a more heavy studded jumpsuit (see pictures below). Elvis owned several black jumpsuits.Originally Posted by Patrick

I tought I'd seen a picture somewhere of Elvis wearing the actual belt made for this costume but I may be wrong. The belt I've always ever seen around Elvis's waist while wearing this suit is the "Gold Attendance" belt that the International/Hilton hotel gave him. Leroy may correct me but I do believe there was, in fact, a belt made for this suit but Elvis never wore it.
