I think Connery is the most interestingly tailored in this sense - remember that he's a bodybuilder underneath, and then look and realise how understated his suits and evening dress are.

You got the Roger Moore and Timothy Dalton images the wrong way around.

Love this video. I had a Black commando sweater when I was in middle school. I loved it. I would sometimes wear it even in summer because I thought it looked so good. I live in FL. 😂

One main reason why Daniel Craig looks stylish in the photos is because of his physique. That’s why all of the styles worked. So get in the gym and develop the body. You will thank yourself in time.

Stylish. That pea coat looked very smart with the casuals unerneath it.

Ah ha. The old wooly pully. 20 years in the USMC, retired and I still have a few wooly pully's in one of my sea bags. Too bad they no longer fit. The green wooly pully.is very fashionable.

6:08 A white t-shirt and a tie? AI is confused 😂

Craig's suits were often too tight, especially in Spectre. Connery's suits especially in his early movies were tailored better, those were the suits of understated style and timeless elegance.

Keep going and make more of this philanthropist efforts..you can talk about classic actors like Cary Grant james Dean..humphry Bogart and of course micheal caine

The video is great, but there is a bit of misinformation here. Fleming giving 007 a boring name was done in order to contrast it with his amazing style, as the Fleming stories don't depict James in anything particularly stylish. In fact, the suits he wears are often described as being "tattered" or "old". Fleming DID want Bond to be a boring character, but only because he wanted to contrast it with the luxurious, exotic settings and situations he found himself in. He wanted James to be a sort of vessel; the readers shouldn't care about him, and instead focus on his surroundings. This is because the era in which the books were written was a point in time when the British economy was still in the shit after WWII and people couldn't experience the finer things in life, so Fleming's mission was to illustrate a fantastical world where it was all possible. He thought if Bond was too charming or charismatic, the exotic side of the books would suffer.

However, later on in the stories, Fleming saw the popularity of Bond's character and made him a little less one-dimensional in the last few stories, particularly in "You Only Live Twice" where there is a heavy emphasis on Bond's malaise and depression after the death of Tracy. Point is, before the films, Bond was not particularly charming or charismatic. He WAS a gentleman, but that was basically a trend anyway.

Those suits are exceptional. I should really see a Taylor:)

[christopherlawson]

Awesome vid. This lends credence to my direction toward fashion, which is on par with the bond look. I’d like to know the type and brand of driving gloves that bond (Craig) is using in some of the shows.

Bond always blended in with the time of Day and the Weather. It's a common thing in Espionage it didn't necessarily make him stand out but it made him practically blend in broad daylight. Craig's Bond was one who was learning to get it right and took until Skyfall, I think, to nail it like the other Bonds. Think of the Khaki Suit in No Time To Die and the Weather from that Madera Scene. Sunny day (Khaki 2-Piece) and a clear blue sky (light blue shirt).

The Mid Sharkskin Grey would come around a more cloudy. Normally you'd see Khakis paired with the White Shirt like in Diamonds Are Forever when the Weather was Sunny and had some clouds in the sky.

Foggy Day? Dark Grey. Chance of rain? Royal Navy Blue.

The Tuxedos speak for themselves. The Black Tux seems to be a way to blend in or help to hide out of sight (like a Ninja) and the White Dinner Jacket to make him stand out like an Open Target/A Distraction.

There are more reasons why Spies tend to dress this way other than blending in broad daylight, however, with Bond especially. You'd often see what he wears similar to what you'd wear in a Wedding/Wedding Party and also a Funeral. Black Suit and Black Tie, which is the common Funeral Attire would often be worn in those scenes where Bond is actually at a Funeral or a to blend in the dark while offing his Target. I guess you can excuse the Wedding Party reason to just being the Bachelor that Bond typically is..."Really, 007!"

Though not every Bond film would often nail it due to rather discrepancies in the Script, abiding by continuity, the lighting on the set (can't always get that right all the time) or budget reasons... It happens!

Bottom line. there is far more than meets the Eyes (only) when it comes to Bond's Style. Even though it changes with the times, he always blends in with the Time of Day and The Weather!

FYI, I know all this because I've read this in some excerpts in Spy Novels including Ian Fleming and it's also IN EVERY BOND FILM IF YOU REALLY PAID ATTENTION!

Oh! And the different ties Bond would wear are of Personal Preference. Goes with Bond's Mood, it seems.

Let's face it, Daniel Craig look's fabulous in anything he wears, Daniel Craig is so cool, I'm going to be my own version of Bond!!🍸

[Rudey]

Craigs accessories as Bond are very few but on point, all he needs is a great watch and a cool pair of sunglasses. If you were just a 'one watch guy' The Omega Seamaster 300 41mm is a great choice, easily customisable with Steel, Rubber and Nylon Nato straps. I personally like Persol Sunglasses but the Tom Ford Snowden sunglasses are again, the only sunglasses you will need.

Why did you call him 'Sir Ian Fleming'? Fleming was never knighted, so he wasn't a 'Sir'.

It is ipperative to recognize the dramatic difference in appearance between Craig and all the other models in this vid showcasing the various styles; it is indicative of his level of fitness which lends itself directly to his appealing aesthetic.
In other words: get in shape and you and your clothes will look better.

[davidnorris]

From 'Skyfall' onwards the suits are too tight. In the opening sequence of 'Spectre' its amazing that the button didn't pop off!
