Longhuntr, I really like that shot of the D of W and his wife and the dogs. Are there any other pictures of that occasion? It looks like he was wearing a bias-cut tartan waistcoat, but I can't make out much about his jacket. It looks to be velvet.
Based on her dress, I am guessing it is the 1960s...
Interestingly enough, it appears to be a shawl collar. It's definitely velvet, with a silk faced collar. From the line of the hem across his lap I'd say that it IS cut for a sporran (rather than being a saxon cut jacket).
Most definitely 1960s.
 ith:
edit: here's a standing pic from either the same event or one where they appear to have worn the same outfits
