From the same Feb 1962 Harper's Bazaar.

A black and white tweed suit, with a leather belt. The jacket is called a 'smaller jacket with a smaller sleeve and flatter collar.' Cloche skirt, cut in sections, by Zuckerman in British Woollen Tweed. About $265. At Bonwit Teller, L.S.Ayers, I Magnin.

Ben Zuckerman's show in June 1962 featured 175 coats and suits. Matching scarves or ties highlighted the neckline of suits and coatdresses. Long jackets were a major theme. Coats were broad shouldered. Evening looks were of textured tweed, lined in moire or brocade to match an overblouse or dress.
