Hello all, here's a tough one to date so I've placed it here. The jacket and trousers have the WW2 traits but the vest has '48>'53 buttons. Comments are most welcomed. Had this one in the depths since the '90's

It used to be that every corps in the Australian Army had its own colour scheme for mess dress. There will be a chart around somewhere.
