Connery’s Bond frequently wore cocktail-cuff shirts, which required no cufflinks—but on the rare occasions they were needed, he favoured a very particular style.

Sean Connery's Bond was a fan of flannel. Throughout his tenure as the world's favourite secret agent, Connery worked the soft woollen cloth into the wardrobes of all of his 007 movies - except 'You Only Live Twice'.

In the pre-title sequence of Thunderball, Connery’s Bond is engaged in both fight and flight—naturally carried off with aplomb in his Anthony Sinclair flannel suit.

Semi-Plains are understated, versatile fabrics that are easily coordinated with patterned shirts and accessories. Their two-tone construction brings the cloth to life with detailed surface interest and the effect of reflecting various colour shades through different planes of light.

Following a brief hiatus, Thunderball signalled the return of director Terence Young—and with it, one of Bond’s most elegant wardrobe signatures: the Cocktail Cuff Shirt.

In 1963, a single photoshoot for From Russia With Love immortalised Bond’s elegance—Sinclair tailoring, Walther pistol, and monogrammed cufflinks defining cinematic style forever.

Filming of the fourth James Bond movie, Thunderball, commenced in February 1965, and premiered in Tokyo on 9th December - there is much to celebrate.

Undoubtedly, the most iconic Bond outfit is the mid-grey, Glen Plaid, three-piece ensemble worn by Sean Connery in Goldfinger (1964) whilst rolling in the hay with Pussy Galore.

For over five decades, the Thomas Crown Affair wardrobe has been a benchmark for bespoke finery.

From the dark satanic mills of Northern England to the rocky hills of southern Italy, humble corduroy has followed a winding path through history.

To mark the 60th anniversary of the James Bond film franchise, Anthony Sinclair created a 60-piece collection of essential spy-wear, commemorating six decades of Bond style.

Following a brief sabbatical from MI6, Sean Connery returned to play the role of James Bond in 'Diamonds Are Forever' (1971).

During the latter part of 2021, Anthony Sinclair introduced a Special Order version of the three-piece Glen Plaid suit, famously worn by Sean Connery in the 1964 James Bond film, 'Goldfinger'.

During Sean Connery's tenure as 007, he often found himself assigned to missions in warm environments. Thankfully, he was able to call upon his tailor, Anthony Sinclair, to provide appropriate clothing.

Roger Moore's first outing as the world's favourite secret agent was much anticipated, and there is no doubt this magnificent piece of tailoring helped to impact his presence on screen.

As former 007 George Lazenby turns 77, we look back at Anthony Sinclair’s enduring association with the man who once stepped into James Bond’s shoes.

One of the most popular outfits ever produced by Anthony Sinclair for Sean Connery has been recreated to form part of the 60 piece collection designed to celebrate six decades of Bond style.

During the 1950s, Anthony Sinclair established a bespoke tailoring business in London’s Mayfair district, an area renowned for exclusive shops, hotels, clubs and restaurants.

The journey that followed twelve weeks of tailoring, several months of planning, fifty years of business development and two centuries of Savile Row history, drew to a close.

Savile Row and its Mayfair environs have been synonymous with style, quality and taste for over two centuries, led primarily by the bespoke tailors of the district.

Former Sinclair apprentice Richard W Paine was the man charged with the job of cutting the patterns for the recreation of Connery’s original suits.

Bond artefacts do appear at auction from time to time, but items of Sean Connery’s wardrobe from his tenure as 007 are extremely rare – and expensive.

The curators of the Designing 007 exhibition agreed that an event showcasing Bond style could not be complete without the “Goldfinger Suit”.

James Bond’s opening scene in Dr. No (1962) was arguably the most important of any in the 50 year history of the film series.

To help celebrate the Golden Anniversary of the Bond films in 2012, London’s Barbican Museum planned to host a new exhibition entitled, “Designing 007: Fifty Years of Bond Style”.
