Hello gang,
Wanted to share some news. At Tom Ford yesterday, it was shared with us that Craig was refitted at Tom Ford only 4 days ago in the NYC store. In addition to being fitted for clothing there was a discussion of what he might be wearing from a casual standpoint. I was able to see blue chukka boots, a very strange purplish/royal blue jacket, and a VERY cool black bomber. No suits were discussed but most of his clothes will be from the 2015 lines and thus nothing discussed is available publicly yet....watch this space though for more news to come as it breaks and of course right now none of these things might be in the film...but it's a first glimmer......here are some fun pics of our visit (3 hours, 3 bottles of champagne, and too much money later)...also, my wife and I attended a Washington DC event this past Saturday and I was able to wear a certain SkyFall tuxedo...just fun stuff....

you a swig out of the local Wino's bottle of buckfast.
{[] nice pictures. -{
Blue chukkas? Very dark almost black midnight blue or the traditional navy? The"very strange purplish/royal blue jacket" will be interesting to see just to see if it's like some of the Tom Ford velvet items I abhor.
Looking forward to more info as it becomes available.
So I guess these casual clothes you saw was hints from TF that DC had been in to see!!?
Any pics of these?
I believe that the Regency style suit is now discontinued, and the O'Connor style is the standard accordinmg to my last visit to Tom Ford. We can assume that they might continue with the O'connor style for the next film, hopefully with a better less skinny cut.

It's not so much the model that's the problem but the size of the suit. Any suit will look bad if it's a size too small. The problem to be concerned about is if they measured Daniel Craig before he beefs up for the role.
The bomber was cool...had zippers a la Wolverines jacket from X-men on the front...cafe racer look!
Mantis that Tuxedo simply looks amazing on you mate! This is one of those rare instances where the man's outfit outshone the lady's. And that's saying something as Mrs Mantis looks stunning also!
Appreciate the update, Mantis. I wonder if the light blue chukkas go with the purple/blue jacket. Was the bomber anything like the leather jackets in the first look pics for the TF SS 15 line? (Honestly the only thing shown in the SS15 preview I didn't actively dislike was the peacoat and the denim jacket.)
I noticed in the last picture you were wearing an Original Penguin polo. How does it compare to a Sunspel or a Billy Reid?
Maybe the suede purplish/royal blue jacket is test by Tom Ford to see if Bond fans will buy anything that Bond wears in the movies no matter how bizzare. -{
Thank you
