If there is one fashion icon through the ages that men have aspired to look like, it is undoubtedly James Bond, agent 007, super spy, super stud, super stylish and the most fashionable. Every actor that has portrayed this ageless hero, has showcased the best menswear trend of that generation ... and going through the 23 Bond movies till now, is the best education for any fashionista, and the ultimate guide of how a man of class and taste should look like ! Take a look at the trailer of the latest Bond movie SkyFall below !!




We were amused to note the amount of feedback we got, ... on our previous blogpost about the Biography of James Bond  from the men in our lives ... Friends and family called up to debate the information we had put up ... and these were males we have known for a long time ... never could we have imagined  ..... that they would know so much about a hero on celluloid or ... follow and copy the rakish style of recent Bonds on screen !!! Therefore, we at Delhi Style Blog decided to bring you the latest Bond, Daniel Craig and decode his style in SkyFall for you :)




As you can see in the vid above ...Tom Ford is Bond's tailor for the 2012 James Bond movie SkyFall, starring Daniel Craig. Tom Ford worked closely with SkyFall costume designer Jany Temime to create a range of made-to-measure tailored clothing, eveningwear, suits, shirts, knitwear, ties, accessories and eyewear (sunglasses) which we show below. Daniel Craig is channeling the 1960's narrow lapels, narrow tie look with a very modern and current trend of super slim fits .



Daniel Craig wore a midnight blue sharpened diamond jacquard O’Connor shawl lapel cocktail jacket with grosgrain details, white evening shirt, black bowtie and white silk pocket square to the London premiere of SkyFall 






Tom Ford's James Bond Evening Tuxedo in Selfridges, London

The Tuxedo :





The Tuxedo is a navy blue textured satin with black shawl collar and flapless pockets, worn with a crisp white dress shirt , dress studs, matching pocket square and bow tie. It is worn with a black satin cummerband, and black straight tapered trousers. Navy blue jacket, white shirt and black trousers is an all time classic combination :)

Tom Ford Falconer suit 


The Suit :


The 60s look is everywhere now and nobody carries it better than Daniel Craig with his super fit body, defined muscles and 6 packs in short jackets, slim lapels, slim trousers worn with poplin shirts, slim ties and silk pocket squares in his breast pocket.  It is thorougly classic tailoring .... the jacket is tight through the body and sleeves , and it is short like the current mens fashion trends (it doesn’t completely cover Daniel Craig's buttocks while traditionally a mens jacket should be covering his rear ... but we ladies don't mind ... Daniel Bond Craig is most definitely porn for females .. hahahahaha bring it on !!! ). The jacket has padded shoulders and a 3-button front, with narrow lapels that roll gently over the top button. The cuffs also have 3 buttons, with the last button left open, flapped pockets and a single vent.The flat-front trousers are also super slim fit and have a very low rise. All in all, a very modern fashionable fit. Just remember : if you wear a 3 button front jacket ... just do the middle button only ... and never button the last button in your jacket cuff !!




Tom Ford two button dress shirt



Tom Ford tab collar shirt


The Shirt :


 
 
 
Tom Ford white shirts are a thing of fascination, it instantly separates the men from the boys. As it is ... nothing but nothing can beat a man in a white shirt or Tee ... it is the most time tested style that you can never go wrong with, no matter your age or complexion !!! The Tom Ford shirts for Bond features a tab collar where the points are fastened together by a strip of material underneath the tie knot .... that is why his tie knot sits so well and proud like in the pics . First popular in the Twenties and favoured by the Duke of Windsor, the tab enjoyed its last revival in the Sixties before collar stiffeners became the norm for formal shirts. Its a classic style and always correct with a lounge suit.

The Cuff Links :

Swimwear :


Now this is where most men go wrong .... you don't have to follow fashion in swim wear ... after all the purpose of swimming trunks lies in its usage ... the Orlebar Brown Setter Sky swimming shorts that Daniel Craig wears in SkyFall is the perfect style that suits a man ... short, fitted, eye appealing but decent ... and oh so manly !!






The Car :

Walther PPK with silencer 



Walther PPK/S used by James Bond in SkyFall 2012 


The Gun :


The gun of choice used by all Bond actors till date is the Walther PPK (Polizeipistole Kurz - Police pistol 'short') (PPK/S nine-millimeter short)... and in SkyFall it is coded to James Bond's palm prints ... hand recognition technology !


Daniel Craig as James Bond doesnot only look good, kill the villain, and save the hot babe and planet .... he also happens to be a men's fashion trendsetter .... but what else do you expect of a man lucky enough to be dressed by Tom Ford ... the designer who has vowed to bring back the "Man" in "manliness" !!!! Hope you enjoyed the post .... we are waiting eagerly for SkyFall to hit the Delhi screens :)
