Autry National Center

Nudie Suits. You may not be familiar with the name, but you have probably seen one or two before. They are the decorative, rhinestone-covered suits that became signature looks for many of their owners during the 60s and 70s. While the suits were most popular in decades past, they are still being worn by artists today.

How about an all Nudie Suit edition of the 9:30 Coffee Break? Give us your suggestions for musicians known to wear a Nudie Suit.
