Grey 3 piece Sean wore in Goldfinger.

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

Totally agree.

Best suit? Connery vs EON.

The three-piece from CR that's on the cover of EMPIRE.

You know i like all of Pirece's suit of Die Another Day:the blazers and suit are immaculately perfect.With the suit, Pierce appeared suave,sophisticated,gentlemanly and very stylish 2 say the least..Also all of his blazers and suits for the promotional shots of the movie and which could be found on the Die Another Day DVD stills pic.In fact i love the suits or blazers with a bow-tie on.Daniel Craig's Bond also went for that approach and looks very suave looking

I've always loved the classic tux and the connery suits i'm also a fan of the combat suit that brosnan wore in the PTS of goldeneye

All of Connery's suits.

Brosnan's suit during the TWINE pre-credits.

At the other end of the scale...while Sir Roger always looked "good", time has not been good to the majority of his suits (buttons on the shoulders? safari, anyone?)

All of Brosnan's suits for me. I think that Pierce Brosnan wore many cool suits in his films.

(By the way does anyone know if a new edition of the book "Dressed To Kill: The Suited Hero" will be released?)

Yes, Moore's suits were heavily 70's styled, big flares and lapels, so they have aged less well that Connery's which were far more classic and therefore timeless. Interesting also that the colour palette broadened with Moore; mostly Connery wore grey, various shades from light to dark (I'm leaving out DAF here as for me that was a Rog film with the wrong actor); with LALD and TMWTGG you start to get browns, mid blues and light blues. I actually like Moore's italian tailored blue suits in TMWTGG (if they were cut without the flares that is).

And as for the safari jackets - that is Roger Moore's Bond for me! Love 'em!

Sean Connery played Bond in Diamonds Are Forever no matter what you call it, and that film is a proof that the 70's clothes and the humor came before Roger Moore and that style was going to continue with any actor in the role (even Sean). Personally, I dont have any big problems with 70's styled clothes in a movie made during the 70's... but thats just me.

Anyway, Moore had many nice timeless suit too and I prefer his or Dalton's classic look far more than Brino-Brosnan. The suit Bond has during the crocodile scene in LALD is a favourite and also, the breifing scene in MR. Actually, MR feature one of the best dressed Bond ever (only FRWL and GF may be better).
