A new exhibition on JAMES BOND opens on Friday at the Barbican center in London to celebrate the 50th anniversary of one of the most influential and stylish silver screen franchises of all times. The exhibition Designing 007 - Fifty Years of Bond Style tells the inside story of the design and style of the 23 iconic films, featuring over 400 costumes, props, photos, set pieces and design drawings.
Highlights include costumes created by Armani, Gucci, Prada, Versace and other famous fashion designers for the six actors who have played Agent 007 as well as clothes designed for his adversaries and, of course, the ‘Bond girls.’
In the same way that as D.W.S we aren't really meant to have favorite clothing designers (but we do) then although we tried to be unbiased at who was the best Bond of all time, there is no competition. It's Sir Sean every time.
How styles have changed over the past 50 years look at the difference in swim suits between then and now:
The Exhibition runs at The Barbican in London until Sept 5th, and then starts a 3 year World Tour beginning in Toronto in October.
