In the Moroccan sections of Spectre, Daniel Craig’s Bond trades his usual Tom Ford tailoring for a brown jacket by Brunello Cucinelli, cut soft and light for the heat. It is a jacket for a man with nothing to prove. The Brunello Cucinelli Spectre jacket is, in our view, the most easily borrowed piece of Craig’s wardrobe in the film.
In the film
Bond wears it in Spectre (2015) in Morocco, over a Tom Ford white shirt and brown knit tie, as he and Madeleine Swann wait for Blofeld’s driver. It sits with Brunello Cucinelli chinos and a woven leather belt from the same maker, and he later wears the outfit with the Tom Ford Henry sunglasses.
The details of the Brunello Cucinelli Spectre jacket
A light, mixed cloth. Matt Spaiser of The Suits of James Bond identifies the fabric as 51% wool, 41% linen and 8% silk. That is a sensible blend: the linen keeps it cool, the wool stops it creasing like a bedsheet, and the silk gives it a faint softness.
Almost no structure. The shoulders are narrow and soft, with natural sleeve heads and very little padding. It reads Neapolitan rather than English, and it moves with you rather than holding a shape for you.
Double vents. It is the only jacket Bond wears in Spectre cut this way. The practical gain is air and ease when you sit or reach; the visual gain is a cleaner line at the back.
Quiet eccentricities. The lapels flare slightly at the notch, and the keyhole buttonhole on the left lapel is functional, with a small button under the right collar. There are four buttons at each cuff, flapped hip pockets, a welted breast pocket and fine edge-stitching throughout. None of it is loud, which is the point.
Wearing it now
This is a jacket for warm weather and for travel, and for the days when a suit is too much and a shirt is not enough. We would wear it with a white poplin shirt, open at the neck, and stone or cream trousers. The film pairs it with chinos only slightly lighter than the jacket itself; we would choose more contrast, such as grey or stone, so the brown stands out cleanly.
It also works with a fine navy knit and dark denim for an evening outdoors, or a knitted tie if you want to be a little more formal, as Bond is. Suede boots or loafers suit it. Roll the sleeves if the heat insists.
Finding one. This is a 2015 jacket and we could not find it on sale new from Brunello Cucinelli or a retailer, so it is out of production as far as we can tell and found second-hand. Our button is an eBay search for the reference. Anything described as a brown wool, linen and silk blend, soft-shouldered and with double vents, would be a version in the spirit of the film.
In the same spirit
This is an alternative, not the jacket from the film. The Connolly Giubbino is a short, unstructured, unlined jacket in navy linen and cotton: a different colour and length, but the same soft, light-handed idea for warm weather.
