having just seen the movie, and judging it possibly the best bond film ever-- tied or better than goldfinger, in my book-- I recant my prior statement. the suits looked fine, a little neck gapping notwithstanding. possibly in part due to a minimum of skinny-pantleg shots in the film, but they actually looked razor sharp in the film to me. WHAT A MOVIE!!!!!

The collar gap is the mark of a terrible fit. I'm sorry, but considering the resources behind these suits it's a legit call out (to fashion nerds). If I was Ford I'd be embarrassed.
Can't wait to see the movie!

This. The awesomeness of the movie notwithstanding (and it was pretty incredibly awesome), a collar gap means it doesn't fit. Has nothing to do with a "fashionably slim" aesthetic or whatever the costume designer wanted. Just plain doesn't fit. I was shocked at this--even when he was standing still the suit was sitting a good inch away from his neck.
And yeah, if I was Ford, I'd be furious.
Now, Ralph Fiennes' suits... Those were nice.

Though you cannot tell from that picture the details are not all correct; I saw the film this past weekend and one scene clearly shows that the jacket has a single center vent

Anybody have luck finding the skyfall ties? I don't see them floating around like the QOS ties.
