Riding Suit and Gun Belt

This is a costume worn by Barbara Stanwyck in the television series The Big Valley (1965–1969). Featuring a black shirt, leather vest, and gun belt, the outfit reflects the strength and authority of her character, Victoria Barkley, the matriarch of a powerful ranching family. Stanwyck’s commanding presence and signature style in costumes like this helped redefine the role of women in Westerns, combining elegance with toughness.
