Book James Bond Style - ASSOULINE

James Bond Style explores the timeless fashion of all 25 Bond films, from sharp suits and cult watches to glamorous gowns and scene-stealing swimwear. Covering not just 007 himself but also his villains, love interests, and allies, the book showcases how Bond’s style has evolved over the decades. Written by Oscar-winning costume designer Lindy Hemming, who worked on five Bond films, it offers behind-the-scenes insights and contributions from top designers like Tom Ford, Donatella Versace, and Jenny Packham. From Sean Connery to Daniel Craig, each chapter highlights the most iconic looks from Dr. No to No Time To Die, along with fascinating anecdotes—such as the 33 custom-made Tom Ford tuxedos produced in record time for No Time To Die and the 20 Prada dresses created for Quantum of Solace to match different stages of action.

The book also captures Bond’s most memorable fashion moments, including Ursula Andress’s legendary white bikini in Dr. No, Halle Berry’s vibrant La Perla swimsuit in Die Another Day, and Daniel Craig’s now-viral beach scene in Casino Royale, where his trunks were later auctioned for £44,450. Featuring never-before-seen sketches, detailed fashion analysis, and exclusive insights from the franchise’s official archivist, James Bond Style is the ultimate guide to the sartorial legacy of 007—a must-have for fans of fashion, film, and Bond’s enduring elegance.
