HUNTING PINK
1974

A hunting coat of any colour, black, red or green could quite correctly be called a Pink coat. The word Pink had nothing to do with the colour but was the name of a well-known and exclusive firm of tailors who specialised in hunting clothes.

The answer is "Hunting Pink".  When I googled it I came up with the above snippet from the Countrylife site.  Interesting hey?!
