Psychedelic costumes from Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In sketch show...

Of all the costumes from popular NBC TV shows on display at Universal Studios Hollywood, this colourful creation designed to match the set from Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In sketch show really stood out for obvious reasons.

The American television show was hosted by comedians Dan Rowan and Dick Martin and ran for 140 episodes on NBC from 1968 to 1973.

In addition to the original costume within the NBC television tribute at Universal Studios Hollywood on March 28, 2011, I also came across this similar jumpsuit worn by Goldie Hawn for the comedy series on display at the Planet Hollywood Cafe in Las Vegas on April 7, 2011.
