![]() ![]() This dinner suit is possibly the same midnight blue dinner suit (or at least one in the same style) that Daniel Craig wore in May 2018 when filming a commercial for Heineken in Spain. The shoes are black lace-ups, but the details of the shoes are difficult to see in the video. ![]() The cummerbund is from Tom Ford, and the other items are also likely to be from Tom Ford. With the dinner suit he wears a black thistle-shaped bow tie, a black cummerbund and a square-folded white cotton pocket square. A marcella shirt was probably chosen over a pleated shirt because pleats will not stay crisp in water. The body of the shirt is likely cotton poplin, and it has rear darts for a trimmer fit. Though marcella shirts typically fasten with studs down the front, this shirt fastens with buttons, likely because studs would not be as reliable underwater. On the other hand, swimming in a suit with a restrictive fit must be even more difficult than swimming in a well-fitted suit.ĭaniel Craig’s white dress shirt has a cotton marcella semi-spread collar, a cotton marcella bib with a French front and square cotton marcella double cuffs with round double-sided cufflinks. With less cloth a suit will not feel as heavy in the water, though it will only feel marginally lighter than a more traditionally fitted suit. A very close fit throughout will prevent the suit from looking baggy in the water, which is how a normally well-fitted suit may look in the water. The idea of well-draped tailoring is irrelevant when swimming because a suit cannot drape properly when submerged underwater. When swimming in a suit, a tight fit has a few benefits. The rest of the details of the fit are difficult to determine underwater. The suit has the tight fit we have come to expect from Daniel Craig’s Bond, which is most noticeable with a chest that pulls open. ![]() The trousers have a flat front, side-adjusters and a satin stripe down the side of each leg. There are double vents in the rear, a more classic style than the single-vented dinner jackets that Daniel Craig wore in the last two films. The hip pockets are jetted and the breast pocket is Tom Ford’s typical barchetta-shaped welt. He leaves the last cuff button open, which allows the cuff to flap around in the water. The cuffs have satin silk gauntlet cuffs and likely five cuff buttons in the standard Tom Ford fashion. The shoulders are straight with light structure and have roped sleeve heads. The single-breasted dinner jacket has one button at the waist and medium-width satin-silk-faced peaked lapels. Though the colours in this image are not true to life, the dinner suit appears to be midnight blue and likely is midnight blue. If Tom Ford is providing dinner suits for Daniel Craig as James Bond, they will likely be continuing through Bond 25.ĭaniel Craig’s Tom Ford dinner suit is very classic in its style. The dinner suit for this shoot-most certainly along with a number of duplicates-was most likely provided for free, since I believe it is unlikely Omega would pay thousands of dollars to ruin Tom Ford suits when they could ruin less costly suits. ![]() Seeing Daniel Craig in a Tom Ford dinner suit in this campaign likely signifies Tom Ford’s return in Bond 25. This past weekend on 22 September 2018 Omega released a video component to their campagin for the new line of watches. It’s famously part of a James Bond actor’s contract that they are not allowed to wear black tie outside of the role, which goes back to Pierce Brosnan. When we see Daniel Craig in a dinner suit, we know he’s dressed as James Bond, and this is the most recent look we have had at Daniel Craig as James Bond. Last month Omega released a new Seamaster Diver 300M watch with a photo of Daniel Craig submerged in water wearing a Tom Ford dinner suit. ![]()
