Sean Connery’s Suits in Woman of Straw vs Goldfinger
...ny Sinclair made for Sean Connery to wear in Goldfinger was first made for Woman of Straw. Because six identical outfits from Woman of Straw appear in Goldfinger it is more likely that the same clothes were used in both films rather than copies. Does this dinner jacket from Woman of Straw look familiar? Both Goldfinger and Woman of Straw were released in 1964, but Woman of Straw was made first and released first. Woman of Straw was filmed from Aug...
Woman of Straw: A Brown Houndstooth Suit and Donegal Tweed Overcoat
...of Straw, which was made just before Goldfinger. Some of the suits fit the Woman of Straw setting much better than they fit Goldfinger. The brown houndstooth check suit is especially more fitting for Woman of Straw than it is for Goldfinger. In Woman of Straw Connery wears the suit on a country estate, whilst in Goldfinger he wears it to the office for briefing from M. James Bond occasionally knowingly breaks the rules, and I certainly don’t just...
Woman of Straw: The Charcoal Flannel Suit and Navy Overcoat
...Connery’s Goldfinger suits in its original setting in Woman of Straw. Both Woman of Straw and Goldfinger end with Sean Connery in the same charcoal grey woollen flannel, three-piece suit. This slightly rustic suit does just as well in Woman of Straw‘s country setting as it does in Goldfinger‘s dressier setting of Bond on his way to meet the president. It is Connery’s usual Anthony Sinclair suit. The button two jacket has natural shoulders with rop...
Woman of Straw: The Hacking Jacket
...ttom to bunch up and pull. The shoes are mid-brown Venetian loafers, an odd choices for the country. Later I will be writing about other clothes from Woman of Straw, whether seen in Goldfinger or just exclusive to this film....
Woman of Straw: A Marine Blue Suit for a Wedding at Sea
...e blue suit for an informal maritime wedding. This is one the only suit in Woman of Straw that isn’t also featured in Goldfinger. The bright and rich blue colour is most appropriate for social occasions and is very fitting at sea. Anthony Sinclair most likely made this suit since it has his soft shoulders with roped sleeve heads, a slightly draped chest and a gently shaped silhouette. The style is a more formal button-one cut with narrow peaked la...
Woman of Straw: The Blue Suit from Goldfinger
...flannel. We get another look at the same Anthony Sinclair suit in Woman of Straw, and in this film—the suit’s original appearance—the suit is a three-piece. There’s no question it’s the same suit. The cut is the same button two with natural shoulders and a draped chest. It has swelled edges, cloth-covered buttons and jetted pockets. The vents are still somewhat of a mystery. The poor lighting in this film makes the vent style difficult to make out...
Woman of Straw: The Swim Shorts
In Woman of Straw, Sean Connery wears a pair of light blue swimming shorts that are now well-known because of Designing 007 at the Barbican last year. The shorts were hardly seen in the film, but a still (pictured below) of Connery wearing them was found, and Sunspel recreated them for the Barbican show since they were mistakenly thought to have been worn in Thunderball. After all, when you see a photo of mid-1960s Sean Connery wearing swimming t...
Woman of Straw: The Glen Check Suit before Goldfinger
...Goldfinger, Sean Connery wears what appears to be that same exact suit in Woman of Straw, except without the waistcoat. The jacket has the same button two front, flapped pockets with a ticket pocket, double vents and four-button cuffs. The jacket is made in Anthony Sinclair’s cut with natural shoulders, a full and draped chest and a gently nipped waist. The trousers have Sinclair’s usual double forward pleats and side adjusters. Connery wears the...
