This custom made Tom Ford tuxedo was worn by Daniel Craig‘s Bond in Skyfall (2012). Prop Store offered it in its London 2020 live auction, with an estimate of £10,000 to £15,000.
In the film
Bond wears the tuxedo in Macau, when he meets Sévérine at the floating casino, and again the next morning on Silva’s deserted island, where Silva forces him to try to shoot a glass of whisky off her head.
The tuxedo
The cloth. Midnight blue wool, which can read as black in some light, with black satin lapels and a satin stripe down each trouser leg.
The details. An angled left breast pocket, two welt hip pockets, three small covered buttons on each cuff and a single larger button on the front. The trousers have side adjusters with small metal buckles.
The labels. A Tom Ford label embroidered “Daniel Craig, Bond 23” sits in the inside right chest pocket, and the maker labels carry bespoke measurements with the client box marked “INC DCraig”. Craig signed the jacket lining in silver ink.
