The fact that he picks up Jinx, in her suimsuit, while he's wearing that with his gut jutting out sipping his drink like the world's most repulsive man, makes the scene incredibly unrealistic for me


Well, you have to remember that "ornithology" wasn't the only thing she thought was a mouthful.

It's definitely the pink tie in DAF. Bond would not wear pink!

I have a few contenders per bond of least favourite outfit.

Sean - Pink Tie - Nuff said
Roger - There are a few contenders here, perhaps the 70s had something to do with this, I am going to swerve away from the Banana suit in Spy to choose the suit he wore when getting off the plane in Rio in Moonraker, John Travolta like. No ... No ... No... That simply won't Do
Laz - The Cravate in the Portugal bullfight in OHMSS - I think it reminds me of some french villain - Non C'est pas possible. Wear a tie Laz.
Can't think of glaring examples of why the other 3 needed the fashion police, but I thought it would be fairer to site a few examples. But the winner is ... Pink Tie DAF.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned Dalton's wedding attire at the beginning of "Licence to Kill".

It was the perfect excuse to put him in a tux - instead they made him look like a third-rate hotel doorman.

I cringe every time I watch YOLT and see Bond in his grey ninja garments.

They did Moore just plain wrong when they had him as a clown in OP.

Brosnan isn't that cool in the shirt in Havana either.

The Clown costume from Octopussy.

It's just not right for Bond.

Actually, I find most all of those disguises in there bad. I like the Egyptian outfit though. That was a great scene. "When one is in Egypt, one must delve deeply into its treasures."

Sean Connery - The Grey Ninja suit in You Only Live Twice.

George Lazenby - The kilt he wears in On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

Roger Moore - The Banana Suit he wears to go for a morning ski in The Spy Who Loved Me.

Timothy Dalton - I think his look during Ice Chase in The Living Daylights looked pretty dull, the leather jacket was alright, I just wasn't keen on his jumper. Sooo 80's.

Pierce Brosnan - I HATED his get up in Iceland during Die Another Day, the jumper looked horrible.

Daniel Craig - Definitely his get up in the climax of Quantum of Solace. I liked the jacket, hated the sweaty, hot jumper he wore.

You know, this scene always makes me think of the bit in The Santa Clause where Tim Allen shows up to work enormously fat and in a sweatsuit, and Peter Boyle says to him, "I don't know what's happening to you. You're starting to look like the Pillsbury Doughboy!" B)

I agree with you. Lazenby did look rather weird with it on.

The clown suit is bad but the scene itself is good. I thought Moore played it straight and you felt sympathy for Bond in that scene.

Has to be this:
