Bond Wardrobe on "Access Hollywood"

Bending the rules a bit by posting twice, though only creating a new topic here ...
The next "Access Hollywood" (which seems is only on at 4 AM in my market!) is doing a segment on Bond's wardrobe with a spotlight on CR. Since it doesn't appear AH is broadcast over the weekend, I'm assuming this is Monday, 13 November.
Swimwear definitely featured.

The press release is dated today so, again, should be on Monday's show.
Boss is sponsoring the campaign so I think the suit just got rolled-up under their label rather than try to address it separately and draw attention elsewhere. I'll know more when I'm in Beverly Hills next weekend.
Sunspel made casual wear including polos, pullovers, t-shirts, underwear etc...
Persol made the glasses
La Perla the two swim suits
Brioni the suits an tux
Turnbull and Asser the shirts
Lobb the shoes

I spoke with someone at HB. Apparently, they were responsible for much of the wardrobe on CR, just no signature pieces worn by Craig.* Since they can't specifically lay claim to Bond's look in the film, they're instead connecting their various menswear lines with his appearance over the decades; that is, if you want "classic Connery," Boss offers it, "Moore suave," Boss has it, "Brosnan chic," Boss again, etc. Clever extension of the placement.
Interesting, too, that they included the La Perla--obviously non-Boss--but since HB doesn't offer swimwear, maybe they figure showcasing all the CR wardrobe (along with that model; did someone forgot to bring a cup?) outweighs stepping outside the brand.
*Other than the trailer, I've deliberately avoided seeing any photos or other publicity for the new film so I have no idea what they contributed.
Just in time to wear to premeire; lucky you.

Having finally seen the film, I think Boss supplied wardrobe for just about everyone (like the African crime lord, etc.) except Craig. The bulk of his wardrobe looks to have come from Baker, certainly not Brioni (who are specifically credited on the film for suits only).
Also, I'm trying to find the post about Brioni's limited-issue CR evening suit and its cost. Anyone help me out?
Ted Baker is expensive, well made, and English. Why not?
