Yes indeed, as you can see below, this pattern graced the cover of the Simplicity Fashion News booklet in January of 1967, sewn up in a nice red, white and blue plaid and modeled by none other than the lovely Shelley Hack:
And here is a picture of the pattern front:
"Designer Fashion" straight out of the 60's, shown here with the jacket in red and the blouse and skirt done up in beige:
And the skirt and jacket in the same green print knit with the blouse in a pale blue:
(Sorry, Miss - and you are lovely, too - but I say Shelley wore it better!)
And last of all today, we have the back of the pattern:
Yes, ladies, why don't you sew yourself up a suit from 1967 today?
(That is, if you have the pattern, of course!)

Hey, that's cute! Funny how fabric patterns and colors go in and out of style too.
I like it, I might have thought about making this for Dress Revue. Instead I made a black and white jumpsuit with round cut outs on the side. Love T
I like this one and would totally wear it (if someone wants to sew it for me)! Classy, classic, and flattering. (and for the record I am 46 so just missed it the first time around...)
