007's New Look
30th September 2011
Whilst promoting his upcoming film "The
Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" in New York City last week, Daniel
Craig spoke to a group of reporters about
the new look for 007 he has been working on with fashion designer
Tom Ford for the upcoming 23rd James
Bond film.
"Tom [Ford]'s doing the suits. In fact,
I've spent a long time with Tom getting a very different
look and he's been designing a new set of things [for the
film]."
"It's great that he's doing it. It's going
to be a new kinda look. It's a new feel. I'm very excited
about
that. I'm very excited about the suits."
Tom Ford first started working with Craig
on Bond's clothes for "Quantum
of Solace" alongside costume
designer Louise Frogley. For Bond
23, it is understood
that "Harry Potter" alumni Jany Temime will be taking Frogley's
position.

Craig was asked whether he still enjoyed
taking home some of the costumes from his productions. "I
probably was when I first did Bond and I was given all these
amazing
suits and suddenly I've got this huge wardrobe and I'm thinking
'Oh my God, what am I going to wear?'"
"I so do not give
a shit anymore!" [Laughs] |

"I've kind of flipped the other way and if I could just
wear jeans and T-shirts all the time I would. But that doesn't
mean I don't like getting dressed up. I'm really lucky to have
a wardrobe with five or six beautiful suits done by Tom and some
other people. So when the time is right, I put them on, and they're
beautiful.
