This was the only outfit specifically made for the Allan doll other than his original swimsuit attire; it featured a white dinner jacket, with half white lining, black zippered pants with soutache braid down the side, white lace and pearl button trimmed white shirt, red satin cummerbund and bowtie, black knit socks and black shoes.  Boy - he almost out shined the groom!
