I received an email from OB yesterday informing me that a new capsule collection based on Octopussy will be revealed in a month.
Any idea what it might include?

Haha ^ was waiting for that!
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if we see a Cuban collar shirt or swim trunks based on those colours or pattern.
There are not many pieces left from this movie that could be reinterpreted by Orlebar Brown.
Personally i would like to see the miliary shirt he wears during the pre-title sequence. It reminds of Indiana Jones' shirt. Other pieces might be the tan safari suit he wears during the escape from the palace. The vest and shirt he wears when he meets Octopussy, That's about it.
Will it just be the poster printed on stuff?
I guess you could do the twins' red shirt look which Bond appropriates, but I'm not sure anyone would want that.
OB have mostly refrained from reproducing clothes made by existent brands, so I’m wondering if they will reproduce the military shirt and the safari shirt, both made by Frank Foster. They did a take on Foster’s Moonraker half-zip, but entitled reinterpreted it as knitwear. Foster even made the red shirt that Bond steals. I imagine that little of the collection will be replicas. I’m imagining poster prints.
They just posted some new graphics to tease the release at the end of the month.
It looks like they are really into promoting this. I am wondering what pieces they could possibly have in the capsule. 🤔
It's quite nice but I wouldn't say ultra-professional looking standard of illustration, if you know what I mean. And what's up with the 7?
It looks like a hand-painted poster from Ghana. Which I love, but maybe not for this endeavor.

I saw this too last week. In my opinion it is too good to be true.

Ah right, they've written 'Octopussy' on some stuff. And that octopus just isn't painted well enough for my money.
The polo shirts look very nice though.
Not overly impressed with any of this latest collection. The linen suit just looks like the OHMSS one they did a couple of years back
This thread has a lot less laughter and swearing than I expected.
David's video review is now online:
If this collection is as overpriced as the last ones, then I'm not interested.
Bond: “I must be dreaming.”
Is it just me or does the octopus look like a cartoon with bug eyes and an agape mouth? Shocked at the prices?
Usual money grab that comes around every year with the usual suspects promoting it…

Check it out, you won’t be disappointed
Does anyone know if the newest linen suit is the same color as the "matchstick" OHMSS one? As @Glidrose007 says, they appear identical, even in the stock photos
