Billy Reid’s Bond peacoat in Skyfall

Written by Tania Braukämper.

We’ve been rounding up the items from James Bond’s latest wardrobe: the Tom Ford suit, the Crockett & Jones shoes, the Globe-Trotter case.

But while a tuxedo or a bespoke rifle case may not be a staple of the average male wardrobe, a navy blue peacoat is. It’s one of those classic items that’ll get you through one winter and the next… and the next. And it happens that Daniel Craig’s James Bond got his at Billy Reid.

Billy Reid Bond Peacoat

Craig/Bond’s coat (both have been known to favour it) is short, trim, with a single vent and horn buttons, leather trim and peaked lapels. As far as alternatives to black go, navy blue for men is it this season; so Craig has it spot on.

The coat costs $695 at Billy Reid.

Some people's wardrobes are about a small selection of pieces that all fit within one aesthetic - Tania Braukamper isn't such a person. With a wardrobe that spans three different rooms, her approach to fashion is a mixture of current-season key pieces mixed with vintage finds she's sourced on innumerous shopping trips around the world's more cultured capitals. Despite a disparate approach to shopping, Tania is adamant that the key to mixing vintage with new season is to stick to key looks and colours that work for oneself. And it's a theory that she works into her writing for Fashionising.com, where she serves as the publication's Editor.
