Skyfall Budget London/Scotland Suit

I was wondering if anyone had any budget alternatives to the pinstripe suit Craig wears while chasing Silva. I want the entire outfit (suit, shirt, tie ect.) as close as possible without breaking the bank. If anyone has anything it would be appreciated.

    Welcome to the board beatleboylevi! :) I would suggest waiting for Indy Magnoli's reproduction, he already has the Skyfall suit and shirt I guess, I'm not sure about the tie however :)

    Hi

    Next do a slim fit suit, grey with pinstripes, slim notch lapels etc> Think its £100. Pretty good tbh, I bought it a year agon when the first pics started coming out. But still in shops.

    Tie Rack do a blue tie, dark blue with mini light blue stars, very similar> Think its £12

    Shirt, try Reiss, starting to bring in some tab collars, as will a lot of others now !!!

    Pinstripes are a little too subtle and charcoal a little too dark, but J. Crew does a great fitting suit for OTR.

    Any updates regarding the suits?
    I am thinking of going for the pinstripe charcoal grey.
    I would appreciate some feed back regarding Barons & Magnoli if someone could assist. :)

    Cheers

    It's worth looking at TM Lewin, who make good British suits and have a range of slim-fitting ones in grey and navy. Not exact copies of the ones in Skyfall but they're well made and last well. I work in London, pretty long hours, and my suits come in for a bit of punishment.. But these take it and still look good. And they're around £200 :)

    I ended up buying the actual Tom Ford outfit :)

    call me crazy but i fell in love with that suit so much so i tried to find a budget alternative and i found a few. but i was unable to feel the same way.

    the guys at TF were so wonderful they ordered the same suit and made it exactly fit to measure with every little small detail along with the shirt and the tie !!

    i realize this is not the answer u r looking for but i will be glad to help u with any questions about the fabric details or fit.

    I got a very similar suit to the Istanbul one at Burtons.
    It's not 100% the same but very much has the style. Match it with a close shirt and tie and you have 'the look'.

    Im thinking of getting a couple of TF suits - can I ask how you found the "buying experience"? did you go to harrods or Selfridges?
