    I really like Vaughn's look above.
    Not as much the other two.
    Vaughn has more of a smart looking, looser fitting jacket style, which I like, moreso than the tighter fit of the other two.

    As creators of the Conduit Cut and James Bond's original tailors, we'd obviously love to see Craig (or any future Bond) back in Anthony Sinclair...

    Indeed! There are many here who love the classic Connery look from the early Bond films.

    Anyway, welcome to the forum, @AnthonySinclair. I hope you enjoy your time here and that you are made to feel welcome.

    The thing I like about Connery suits is that they look 'natural'. There have been several shots of Craig where he appears to be pinched.

    Agreed @Perdogg, I like the way you put that. Pinched is certainly a good word for it.

    Regarding the photo above, I like the hair but that's about it. Shades of Moore in LALD again (Mendes seems to love that film), although Moore's wearing a double breasted.

    First the Illya Kuryakin turtleneck and now Napoleon Solo's assault outfit (old series / new film). Everything old is new again.

    Although Rog is wearing a light blue shirt, which I think is a better choice for Craig anyway.

    You can check out a video of what firing a double-barreled pistol is like, simliar to the one that will be used by Hinx in Spectre, over on my blog at Beyond James Bond.

    I love that Hinx is not merely a clone of previous henchmen, in look at least.

    Moore just looks fantastic here. Elegant yet bad ass.

    I far prefer Moore when he was finding his feet as Bond in both LALD and TMWTGG than in TSWLM. I think he never looked more Bondian than in LALD.

    I've always loved this scene. Solitaire's voice in the background, Martin's score blaring with the LALD tune incorporated, and Moore coming into the Big Apple looking as cool and as Bondian as can be. "A man comes. He travels quickly. He has purpose. He comes over water. He travels with others. He will oppose. He brings violence and destruction."

    Looks very powerful. I especially like how they've managed to give the villain an outlandish weapon without entering the world of camp. Website looking good by the way.

    Hinx might be channeling a bit of Oddjob: wearing black, the old fashioned cap, the brutish frame in with elegant clothes.

    Morroco is still to be filmed, yes. Though scenes set in Morroco have been filmed at Pinewood.

    That is serious dedication. When it comes to coveting what Bond wears, the only thing that has to be exact for me is the wrist watch. When it comes to clothing it just seems like too much hassle to identify, locate and buy the exact outfits; so I just buy clothes that look almost identical. Still, I admire and respect what David from the Bond experience and other fans for their attention to such detail.

    I think Craig's suits in SF were horrible. They looked 2 sizes too tight. with jackets to short and on and on. I also think the light grey suits, with his light hair, totally washes him out. He looks far better in black or dark navy. I much prefer the black sports wear he hopefully is wearing a lot in SP, because it is far more flattering than those tight suits. I know they are fashionable now and it's what the designers are pushing, but fashionable can last 6 months, and Bond films get viewed for decades. Those tight suits are gonna look really silly in a couple of years.

    I'm afraid the fault here lies with Craig. I saw a picture on the news of Tom Ford in one of his suits, and it was in no way tight and skimpy like Craig's suits. Craig seems to think he is fashionable, so I'm afraid it is his bad taste that is dictating this kind of fit.

    Now we know what Oberhauser wears. Any comment? I personally love it.

    Great, thanks for the info. I had always been left to believe this was by TF. Cheers for the post.

    An interesting take on the Nehru collar. I guess there's no doubt who he is now.

    I like the fact that it's a little more flamboyant than the normal villain attire, but there is an element of Austin Powers that came to mind with the velvety texture

    I like to think of it as homage to Dr No more than Blofeld.
  • Posts: 15,229
    Well the Nehru/Mao suit is associared to both characters but given the context of the movie it is far more likely another piece of evidence leading to Waltz being Blofeld.
