So, Connery was originally going to wear an orangeish-red polo for the DN beach scenes with honey! I did not know that. That is very cool. Youve just changed my world man. Looks like I've got an awesome new outfit for the summer . This looks like a fantastic magazine. Thanks for sharing ppw3o6r {[]

... and, it looks like both Sunspel and Orlebar Brown offer a similar polo at the moment:




Decisions, decisions...

I wonder if that's actually just the light blue polo made a different colour for the photo. I've seen Connery pictured in a brown suit in stills from Dr. No (his suits were all grey in the film). I think the photos were taken in black-and-white and later were colourised.

Very interesting! That is extremely likely. Now I'm just wondering what they were thinking by coloring the polo orange/red for the photos if they knew it was sky blue like the pants, because they colored the pants correctly:



Wish the polo actually was an orange/red one because these color combinations look much better to me rather than the all sky blue look. At the same time, the sky blue polo is iconic, so it's a tough call. As for me, I'll just look at it as getting two outfits out of it, as I usually wear my sky blue sunspel with a pair of light grey side adjuster OB pants. Now I can pair my sky blue pants with an orange/red polo (probably the OB ones because as DZ said, OB transports you to another world like no other brand).

By the way, what color would you call that polo Matt? I have always been impressed by your eye for color identification, your identification of the BC Spectre chinos and the Enjoying Death Chinos come to mind.

The colour pops much better in those photos than the true colour would. They didn't want Connery to blend in with the sky. The coulour is a red-orange. Vermilion is a more specific name for such a colour.

Thanks Matt. I thought it looked orange in some pics and red in others, so I was going with a red orange assumption too. Ha! Yea know what, it probably was as simple as that they didn't want him to blend with the sky; his features really would have disappeared. Good eye man! These old photos are such a cool find. Makes me wonder what other gems are hiding in this magazine. Very cool.

This is something I come across frequently in the work I do. I consider it in bad taste to alter the way someone looks in their photos if it's not at their request, but sometimes I alter the colours of the photos I work with so the right things stand out. I prefer to change the background rather than the person, but sky can only be altered so much!

I found a James Bond magazine on the flee market. It was licence to kill. It cost one pound.
