    Peak lapel dinner jacket?
    We called it!
    Looks very nice, actually.
    Notice please, the turn back cuff and the shoes not being the Crockett and Jones Alex model.
    a reasonable rate of return

    Don't speak too soon; this is not for his next Bond film. The costumes have unlikely been chosen yet.

    Yeah have to look for the combat indicators, with that watch on a leather NATO it’s not fir Bond that’s for sure. It’s a DC personal preference.

    Nice rumour though :D

    I don't think there is even a costume designer chosen for Bond 25 yet.

    However, it's comforting to see the familiar product placement brands of Heineken and Omega. :p

    And don’t forget Tom Ford, complete with customary fit issues (although, in fairness, he’s in an awkward position). At least it has two vents!!

    I'm quite certain it's ready-to-wear. That's not how a halfway-decently fitted suit would look when in any position. The sleeves simply just don't fit over his guns. Being a mohair/wool blend, the wrinkles are accentuated. Mohair doesn't drape as well as pure wool, and the sheen shows off the fit issues more than pure wool.

    As said above its just for a Heineken commercial. That said he's clearly going to be channeling Bond like he has in every Heineken commercial, so there might be some hints of what's to come in Bond 25.

    True, but not fitting over his guns is sorta the look he's going for.

    Like most late Craig-era suits, it's decently detailed but horridly cut. RTW is not out of the question but couldn't the suit be of DC's personal wardrobe? Doesn't seem that unlikely considering how he likes his suits.

    Craig would have no reason to own a RTW Tom Ford suit. He has plenty of MTM Tom Ford clothes already, and this certainly isn't one of them. There's little chance he'd be wearing something of his own to film a commercial, especially when duplicate suits are going to be needed.

    It is for sure a Tom Ford tuxedo. That pretty much confirmed that Tom Ford will still be the tailor for Bond 25. To be quite honest, I much prefer him in TF than Cucinelli. Soft shoulder doesn't seem to do his physique justice.

    It does not confirm Ford's involvement in Bond 25, it's only that they used a familiar brand for this shoot. But I agree that he's better in Ford than in Cucinelli. He looks awful in most Cucinelli suits and jackets.

    It’s interesting, because I think he’ll probably lose more weight between now and filming. But he will likely be fitted for his suits very soon. So perhaps we will get some better fitting clothes, even if they size him too small! I just pray it’s Tom Ford and not the Cucinelli junk.

    During the release of Spectre I remember indirectly reading that TF stated they would sponsor the Bond 25 if Craig was involved.

    I recall reading a rumour that Tom Ford would not return if Craig didn't.
