+ a billion. Slim lapels, would rather not have, but ok, passable. Single rear vent is un-fucking-forgivable. I only have two items with a single rear vent: a blue american-style Polo sports coat and an american style blue pinstripe suit (a-la brooks brothers). What Craig is wearing however yearns for a double vent.

Maybe a center vent better accommodates a running scene, as shown in the pic (i.e. a double vent might 'flap around' when he's running). Just a theory.

When Daniel Craig was raving about the new look for Bond in Skyfall that he and Tom Ford had come up with I would never have imagined slim lapels and a center vent. Not to mention the three button cuff and lack of a ticket pocket. There's nothing about this suit that says Tom Ford. All the signature touches are missing frown.gif

Except that the skirt of his jackets for Quantum of Solace was specifically designed to have more "swishy-ness". Unless this was an order from Mendes, I can't see this being the reason.

TF does 3/2. My suit is a 3/2.

uhoh.gif Looks really 'blah', I agree. While I wouldn't mind the single vent, the slim lapels look really cheap. These, in combination with the lousy collar don't do any favor to the overall look. I don't understand why TF used the slim lapels, in the documentary he mentions how much he despises this look...

Maybe this is a scene in the movie where the villain forces 007 to wear that suit. Effectively making him look sartorially silly, forcing MI6 to disavow and burn him. Ow, the drama...

I stopped buying Brooks Brothers suits for this reason. The 1818 Fitzgerald's are single vent
