Mr Beech

With the Barbican exhibition opening, Mr. Porter, a retail clothing and men's style site, has interviewed Lindy Hemming on her experiences and origins with costuming James Bond on screen. She discusses her perception of the character's style and various costuming selections throughout the films she has worked on.

Great interview! I get the impression she wouldn't approve of the Skyfall tailoring, mostly from the part where she says "I wouldn't think that a secret service agent would look fashionable." She did put Brosnan in looser-cut suits in his earlier films to look more modern, and many of the ties haven't held up particularly well, but nothing was taken to any fashionable extreme. I'd be interested to see a proper interview with Jany Temime. Or better, a conversation between her and Lindy. Lindy really understands Bond style.
