Mine is the Blue suit worn by Bond in The Man With The Golden Gun.

[Colossus]

His gray suit in From Russia with Love.

[Quartermaster007]

His gray suit in From Russia with Love.

Ditto.

[Flash1087]

I like the grey one with the vest from the Thunderball PTS sequence, and I always enjoyed Brosnan's outfit from the bank scene in TWINE.

[Johnboy007]

The suit Connery wore to the Junkanoo in Thunderball, or the suit from the The World Is Not Enough pre-titles.

[TheSaint]

Grey 3 piece Sean wore in Goldfinger.

[Robinson]

I always enjoyed Brosnan's outfit from the bank scene in TWINE.

I preferred his suit worn during the boat chase (love the Mondrian-inspired tie) in TWINE.

My fave is the black suit Connery wears in the climax of Goldfinger.

[Tarl_Cabot]

I always enjoyed Brosnan's outfit from the bank scene in TWINE.

That's the best one for me too(also Brosnan's best overall scene) but I like his suits from FRWL and Dalton's tan suit in TLD.

[BlackFelix]

For me it's a toss 3 way tie between....Sean Connery's grey suit when he first arrives in Tokoyo in YOLT/ Tim Dalton's leather jacket and sweater from TLD/ or George Lazenby's grey suit when he broke the safe in OHMSS.

side note: I wish they would expierment in putting bond in some more street clothes as they did in TLD.

Tarl, I too like that tan outfit from TLD, it's in my top 10 favorite outfits! I thought nobody liked Tim's wordrobe because it was scaled down but I thought it worked very well!

The black polo shirt 'commando' suit? I always liked that.

[Turn]

Any of Connery's suits from Goldfinger.

Dalton's mission briefing suit in TLD

Brosnan's from the briefing scene and the break-in in Carver's office in TND and the precredits of TWINE

[BlackFelix]

Yeah, I forgot about the black "infiltration" polo outfit Connery wore in the earlier films! That's a instant classic! I wear a very similar outfit when I sneak into a bathing womans room, with a nato strap rolex.

Ever played the FRWL game? You can wear that suit in it. I like the short-sleeved variant from Thunderball best.

[Gabe Vieira]

I actually like the Khaki-on-Light Blue suit that Bond wore in Everything or Nothing. Nothing real fancy, I just think that it looks good.

[Double-Oh Agent]

Sean Connery's gray suit in From Russia With Love or most any of Pierce Brosnan's suits in his films (at the moment, I can't really pick one--for the sake of the thread, I'll just say the pre-titles in TWINE), and of course any of the tuxedos in all the films (they may not be suits technically, but they're definitely Bond).

[Mercator]

I would take any of the suits from the Brosnan films.

Brioni really did make Bond look like an English gentleman again.

After Timothy Dalton's grunge James Bond look, Pierce looked so smart and elegant by one of the tope Englisht tailors.

And those suites went very well with the Aston Martin.

A class act. Any of the Brioni suits is good as any fashion or clothing expert will tell you.

There isn't anyone in the world to touch Brioni.

Some sort of joke, I presume.

Please reread your own signature and find out about things before you post about them. Brioni are not British!

Welcome to CBN, by the way.

You are following my posts now? I think you will agree with me here at least. Unless you want Bond's suits made by George Michael.

Can you stay on topic, please?

Now it is you who are being offensive. What is Bond's best suit?

[spynovelfan]

Whatever you say.

[ACE]

I love Dalton's suit in the office in The Living Daylights. He looks good in a three piece.

[medrecess]

Brosnan in the casino scene in goldeneye

[Operation Grandslam]

it has to be Brosnan in the pre titles of The World Is Not Enough.

[BlackFelix]

In defense of Dalton, I must say that his clothes in TLD worked fine, formal or casual he looked smart in every scene! Dalton's look was supposed to distance himself from Roger's very proper "old english gentlemen" look. Though I was dissapointed with LTK, it seems as though wardrobe droped the ball there.

For Brosnan, nothing bad can really be said other than Brioni isn't Saville Row. He's sharp in every scene, Almost comparibale to Roger. But for me it's Sean's style that wins. He made every suit (all 2 of them, lol) look like skin!

[Polynikes]

The smartest look was definitely Connery's suits in "From Russia With Love" & "Goldfinger" - also his sports jacket in the Alpine section while trailing Goldfinger through the Swiss Alps (nice music too).

I also love Connery's look when playing golf with Goldfinger - Connery was of course a decent golfer himself & knew what to wear.

However Connery also wore the absolute WORST outfit worn by Bond - in Goldfinger; a baby blue towel garment that's part shorts, part dungarees...
Awful.

Roger Moore was sadly a fashion victim of the '70's. Almost nothing he wore looks good today.
The safari suits from The Man With The Golden Gun and The Spy Who Loved Me are particularly bad (as is the silly yellow ski-suit in The Spy Who Loved Me and even sillier yellow astronaut's suit in Moonraker).

Poor old Roger always wore a jacket and tie (with a full Windsor knot). I'm sure Ian Fleming would've been appalled at the thought of such establishment conformity.
Dressing sexy was something Roger just couldn't do - at least not by the time he became Bond.

(Just had a flashback memory of his pregnant butterfly that masqueraded as a bow tie in the Cairo nighclub in The Spy Who Loved Me).

I was going to add Lazenby's highland dress to the list of "what not to wear" but of course he was dressing "in character" of Sir Hilary.

I also think Connery had his best toupee in this film, as well.

[Napoleon Solo]

And another one:

[BlackFelix]

In retrospect, yes Roger is a victim but in the context of when the movies were made, he looks daper!

[K1Bond007]

Grey 3 piece Sean wore in Goldfinger.

I agree with this or the white one he wore in the pre-title sequence of Goldfinger.

Best toupee indeed. That alone would make for another cool thread! The toupee he wore in DAF was lowsy!

Agreed - Dalton looked good in TLD, with a good mix of formal/informal. It all went south in LTK when he seemed to stop going to Savile Row in favour of Man at C&A.
