Elvis used several belt buckles with this suit. In 1974 he used the original belt and buckle. During the summer of 1976 he started to wear this belt and buckle on the "White Egyptian Bird" until the gold Indian head fell off.
When he started to wear the "Egytian" again in the fall of 1976 he used the original belt with the buckle of the "Chinese Dragon". He also used the buckle of the "Chief".

A great suit, although is it fair to say that this suit is perhaps similar in some ways to the "Today" jumpsuit. Either way I love this suit and saw Elvis in it '74!! Really flashy.

Is this suit also known as the "Gypsy Alpine Suit"?
No Matt. We're talking about a copletely different suit here. If you click on the link below you will get to the "Dark Blue Gypsy".

Great! Thanks for the link Leroy! I never knew the gypsy suit was also known as the Gypsy Alpine suit. I thought they were two different suits, hehe. Thanks again for clearing that up for me

"How do I get placed in situations like this? Ah hell, I guess it's all part of showbusiness "~ Elvis in his limo on his way to perform in Omaha, NE on June 19th 1977

Its a nice suit.
"When I was a child, ladies and gentlemen, I was a dreamer. I read comic books, and I was a hero in the movie. So every dream that I ever dreamed has come true a hundred times. I learned very early in life that without a song, the day would never end; without a song, a man ain't got a friend; without a song, the road would never bend; without a song. So I keep singing a song." - Elvis Presley
Here is a recent photo from the All Access display at Graceland.
Beautiful detail
