I thought the same thing but Simon found some pics of a model wearing a medium who had a 39 inch chest. It did not look baggy....I was all ready to buy a small but would up going medium...we will see!
From John Smedley:
Mens Easy Fit - This style is our classic fit allowing more volume through the body and sleeve. This style is slightly longer, looser and a more relaxed fit than our Slim Fit. Our sizes represent the following chest measurements in Inches.
XS 36-38
S 38-40
M 40-43
L 43-46
XL 46-48
XXL 48-50
However as The Mantis Said the model on Mr Porter is 39" chest and wearing an M.
I’m pretty sure it is a navy blue suit with matching tie and a pale blue shirt.
Very similar in look to Connery’s, in the beginning of From Russia with love.
anybody have pics of the Casino Tuxedo for skyfall
i seem to be a little confused, in the psoters they look really blue, whereas other pics have it a slight blue black
Any photos if you could please post
Cheers

It's just the material it has a sheen to it so when lighting shines off it, it looks like a brighter blue

Yeah, it's never meant to be seen under such light and should look black in normal to bright light.
Black wool usually looks green or brown under such bright lighting and so navy / midnight is the better choice.
I'm sure I must be missing something here - but has anybody tracked down the coat Bond wears when on the rooftops overlooking London? It could just be me but I'm sure the jacket looks a lot longer than the Billy Reid jacket that's worn in Shanghai.
I visited the Tom Ford store in NYC yesterday and saw one of the 2-button Skyfall suits, i didn't recognize the suit from the film and asked about it, and the clerk said it was EXACTLY like the one in the film, aren't the suits worn in the film 3 button?

Yes, the ones in the film have 3 buttons. I'll have to stop by the store soon to check out what they are actually selling.
Anyone still in doubt by the restrained website description, never mind the 1007 product number, should be comforted by the fact that the invoice that came with my pair, calls them the 'James Bond Glove' :007)
These are quite long in length. Mine are a small in size and measure nearly 10". ;%
Without the external stitching and three points on the back, like most men's formal gloves, they remind me more of women's gloves tbh ) But, this makes them distinctive, if very simple in styling. Examination of the London rooftop scenes, with Bond in the TF overcoat confirm these details, or lack of them!
Very nice and sleek, due to being un-lined.
Apologies for not having an Omega PO, or AT to immediate hand.....wearing something else from the stable today. -{
I have just spoken with people from Dries Van Noten about the Q cardigan. It's from their Autumn-Winter 2011-2012 collection and it's product name is TIM 1701 L.RUST
Bugger I ordered a size L of the Skyfall version from Dents (though I did try a pair of Dents L in a shop, though a diff model). Hope they fit the same!!

I have long fingers, but narrow hands, which is why I always need small glove sizes to get a snug fit. I'm sure yours will be OK!

Has anyone actually bought this pullover? I'd like to know if the sizes truly correspond to the chest measurements mentioned above. Also, is the fit loose or a bit slim?
Welsh, can you let us know how deep the V is...Craig has a thick neck so the V doesn't look deep, but this is a deeper V than the others on their page....I have ordered mine but have not received a delivery confirmation yet....
So what have people bought so far with these latest revelations??
Myself (incoming)
Dents Gloves
Topman Chinos Slim Gray (think I bagged the last one which was 36R)
Acne Trousers
Tom Ford Marcos (waited for TF edition but seems unlikely now, prob because its hardly in the film unlike other 2 DC Bonds)

Here is a quick pic for ref with me wearing a standard white Tom Ford shirt underneath my Smedley Bobby (its black but the iPhone camera given it a purple tinge)
Hope this helps, if you need more info let me know
PS - have not compared with Shanghai footage to see if the Bobby matches his

Site lists it as 300 - Ordering direct from Smedley was 260...
Ah, my mistake. I was looking at Mr. Porter with the "shipping to Canada" option, which changes the price to $270.
Very similar in look to Connery’s, in the beginning of From Russia with love.
