Someone is able to tell me what kind of Turnbull and Asser shirts has worn Brosnan in "The world is not enoughe" and "Die another day"?
In particular, I am interested in measures of the package: height front, rear height and openness.

In the documentary on the Dr. No DVD however, you do get a brief glimpse at Sean Connery's measurement card from the 60's. Given the 36 waist though I wonder if that's from the time filming DAF.
S. Connery
Collar size: 17
Chest: 44
Waist: 36
Hips: 41 1/2
Ft. Yoke: 6 1/4
+Chest: 16 1/4

Back Yoke: 9 1/2
Sleeves: 35 1/2
Hems:
Length: 31
Cuffs: 10 (written in margin: T&A Cuffs)
The rest is unreadable for me.
Those that interest me are the standard measures of that type collar worn in "The world is not enough" and "Die another day", slightly different from the one characteristic of Turnbull and Asser
This is a more open collar front and high behind.
I'm interested in the measures the height front than behind and opening earlier.
The height of the collar was probably tailored to Brosnan's neck and matched to the cut of the suit.
I have a few of these shirts. If you like I can trace out the collar and send it to you if you are planning to have someone make these for you.
T&A also offer a wide-deep spread collar. Not the same as there traditional collar. It is slightly different from the Brioni I mentioned above. I prefer the Brioni as worn in DAD since the top of each side of the collar meets without a gap. The T&A collars have a slight gap so the tie sits a little higher on the neck. It took about 4 months to get the Brioni shirts made.
However, if you can send me those Brioni I thank you and the rest on hold, hoping that someone can do the same with those of Turnbull and Asser.
