chriscollins007 · December 2014

Any of you knowledgeable agents , have a source into what type of jumper DC was wearing ?
looks like he's already beefed up ready.
loving the look. :007)

IanT · December 2014

Pic for those of us sat in a cave please?

PS Very Excited - is it next year yet????

welshboy78 · December 2014

Looked rather Smedley but just completely guessing!!

Yeah def looks beefed up

007JBDCMWR · December 2014

It could be a John Smedley Marcus, possibly the ski blue colourway ???

Didn't notice if he had turn back cuffs though

007JBDCMWR · December 2014

Or maybe Indigo blue, hard to tell !!!

cmdr_bong · December 2014

That's a nice look on Craig. Clean and sharp.

I'm glad somebody started this thread - I was about to start one otherwise

But why wasn't he wearing a suit like 3 previous times - that makes me thinking! All the suits were like a demo of what we can expect in the movie wardrobe-wise, he wore a Brioni suit for the CR conference, TF suit for the QoS and Skyfall conferences, so Bond's look in the movie will be more casual than usual?

David Schofield · December 2014

Even self-referencing

The suit at the Skyfall press conference, although Tom Ford, was not representative of the suits to come in the film. Many of the people at the SPECTRE press conference didn't seem to prepare for the appearance. Ralph Fiennes had the bottom button of his suit fastened rather than the top. It's as if someone threw the suit at him and said he has thirty seconds until he has to be on stage.

Was going to post essentially the same: Does no one bother to dress for a press event anymore?
Flip flops on chat shows -- even red carpets -- have become perfectly acceptable.
Where does this end?

Indeed an N.Peal Oxford sweater, same as in SkyFall, just another color, claimed by N.Peal to be Imperial Blue, not the French Navy Blue, although that one seems plausible as well. See the watch (Omega, what else?) and shoes (the infamous C&J Moltons) here: http://www.jamesbondlifestyle.com/news/daniel-craig-wears-npeal-sweater-vintage-omega-watch-and-crockett-jones-shoes-bond-24-press

Nice work (also probs to Schofield for the NPEAL spot)

Looks more purple in the numerous shots see on the Daily Mail website

Cheers for the ref, mate.

Prefer "David" though.

More convinced if its N Peal its the lighter colour

welshboy78 · December 2014

Haha. Few Davids here so thought better make clear!!!!

welshboy78 · December 2014

Hmm im guessing the French Navy Blue but my eyes see little diff on my iPhone

Arbogast 777 · December 2014

Well, it was appropriate for the season anyway...

sandman1935 · December 2014

Not sure if relevant but when I ordered my Tetburys from the New York store the store manager told me that C&J would be the shoes for Specter. Hopefully the black Moltons will be in it.

Hope the Moltens are in it. Mainly as it would save me a few bob

Unfortunately, I've seen a lot of people buttoning only the bottom button recently, even on store mannequins and certain clothing websites. Might be an ugly trend starting.

In most cases where I see it, it's clearly done because the person doesn't know which button to fasten. My dad has done it, and he's certainly not trying to follow any trends. Perhaps one person sees another fastening the button improperly and simply copied it not knowing better. I'm pretty sure Ralph Fiennes just made a mistake. For someone who wears bespoke suits, I'd assume he knows better than to mess up his tailor's creation!

I hope so too. I need another reason to spend $600 on another pair of shoes.

I think it's sometimes known as the 'Columbo' look. But for that character he was supposed to look disheveled and unassuming, so yeah otherwise I agree and would chalk it up to general ignorance.

Also for anyone looking to get a similar sweater to DC's but aren't willing to spring for N.Peal prices, I'd recommend John Smedley. I have a 'Hughes' pull-over identical in fit and indigo colour, but with a v-neck, which I kind of think works better than a crew with a dress shirt + tie anyways....

The Domino Effect · December 2014

Am I the only one who, when the first cast photos appeared on the internet in very small low-res dimensions, had trouble initially differentiating between Waltz (grey suit on end) and Craig (blue pully in centre)? I briefly thought one was a wax works of DC.

Yes, I probably am the only one.

double oh seven · December 2014

Confirmed as Imperial Blue

The item descriptions does change slightly between this colour, Blue Wave and other colours.

welshboy78 · December 2014

Maybe a tad more interesting is the article on N Peals front page

The film is to be called SPECTRE and naturally Bond has chosen a couple of N.Peal cashmere styles to wear in the film.

Wonder if they will sneak us info of what they bought for SPECTRE

I see they do some nice cashmere shawl cardigans in various colours (inc a McQueen Bullitt style brown). Expensive but more affordable then TF at least!!

DBS · December 2014

Perhaps something Bond wears under that TF shearling jacket?...

Kind regards,
Craig

Westward_Drift · December 2014

The Daily Fail got involved. What would they do without twitter to write their "articles" for them?

MrZareba · December 2014

Lol, idiots. Someone even wrote that he has no tie, whereas you can clearly say that he has one under the sweater. Gosh people are weird.

sandman1935 · December 2014

Since DC's sweater (I'm American) was found does anyone know what pants DC wore? Could they be the Acne trousers again?
