THE DOUBLE-AGENT
DINNER SUIT

James Bond is back – and there’s no better way to elevate your attire than with a modern tux that has a licence to thrill

Spectre, the twenty-fourth James Bond film, premieres today, and it’s full of all the sharpshooting and snappy dressing you’d expect from Daniel Craig’s MI6 spy. Classic DJs form a large part of Bond’s seemingly endless wardrobe – for autumn we’ve shaken up the iconic style and stirred it into life. The eye-catching navy and emerald tartan isn’t 007’s usual choice, but it allows the slim-fit suit to play double agent, both as a standout statement in a sea of standard tuxes at a black-tie event and as a more fashionable take on festive party dressing. What’s more, at only £99, it won’t cost you a lot of money (penny). Sorry.
