50 Shades - Christian Grey is a Bond Fan!

OK it's Valentines Day and I guess those who can (or need the brownie points) will be heading to the cinema with their beloved to catch the next 50 Shades flick.

Keep an eye out for the Billy Reed Peacoat ( 2 versions Blue and Grey??) making a few guest appearances through the film. Funny thing was I was wearing mine for the film (unknowingly honest) and two guys and a lady asked me about my coat on my way out! I kept them guessing saying it was the coat worn by James Bond in Skyfall :))

Who would have thought a Christian Grey was a Bond fan huh!

Cheers :007)

P.S Anyone in the U.K. catch the Skyfall Heritage Barbour in Silent Witness a few weeks back?
My name is Bond, Basildon Bond - I have letters after my name!

    Hi, yep the Barbour has been a favourite of the character Jack in silent witness for a few series now :)

    I started a thread on this exact subject quite a bit ago. Most of Jamie Dornan's wardrobe in that film consists of DC/Bond brands. Beyond the Billy Reid 'Bond' Peacoat, he also wears an Omega seamaster and some clothing from All Saints, Rag and Bone, and J.Crew. Would love to ID everything he wears as there's some great wardrobe in that film. Was really lucky to grab the J.Crew polo he wears in the next film in the correct color.

    Ah OK I see the experts are on it. I saw the leather strip on the back of the collar and knew it was BR straight away (the same reason mine was ID as well by those who approached me). But I see you guys are on the case. Given the great pictures from Mantis I can see how it would look like he was wearing 2 versions of the pea coat.

    I had not realised he was wearing so many other items from key Bond brands I will take a closer look and with the sequel filming now and out next year we can expect to see more I guess.

    Cheers :007)

    They actually filmed the sequel and the final film back to back just to get it over with :)) I know in the next and final film he wears a burberry suit/tie/shirt and Paul Smith swimming trunks I think. But yeah there's still so much more in this film and the next that have to be identified, perhaps there's even more Bond/DC brands being worn. In the first film there's also some brands known around here like John Varvatos, James Perse, Bollinger champagne and theres an Omega Aqua Terra in his watch drawer.

    Just saw the film, wasn't as bad as I was expecting. The Billy Reid peacoat is worn twice as is the All Saints jacket. Wish I knew who made the boots he wears for most of the film.
