Really lovely MOD 2 piece tonic two tone purple tonic suit from 'Jump the Gun' in Brighton.

Tonic suits were popular in the 1960’s and have a sheen that is slightly iridescent. 

The ‘Jump the Gun’ website describes this classic colour way as purple, but it’s more burgundy to me with a blue/green iridescence when it catches the light.

It's got distinctive styling with 3 external pockets and is similar to the suits worn in the movie 'Quadrophenia'

Very nice detailing such as the fabric covered buttons (see picture)

The suit has been worn once and has been hanging in my wardrobe since in it's protective cover (included). It’s in really great condition.

 

Jump the Gun tend to be slim fit.

I've included the sizing guide in the images taken from the 'Jump the Gun' website so that you can measure yourself to check the fit. 

For example I'd normally buy 42 chest and 33 waist.

If you need to adjust the leg length there’s approx 2 inches of turn up (see pic)
