Daniel Craig’s Spectre Dress Shirt – Deconstructed & Remade.
Recently, we were tasked with a really interesting customer request — replicating the beautiful pinned collar Tom Ford shirt that was popularized by Daniel Craig in the James Bond film Spectre. While this ‘Spectre Shirt’ is commercially available, its $600 price tag is a bit steep for most men. After we were provided with a few photos, we were able to successfully create our own version — which is essentially a clone of the original. The other benefit (as with all our shirts) is being able to customize fit via one of our four (4) measurement methods. The Tom Ford shirt is an off-the-rack shirt with standard sizing.
The beauty of this collar begins with the collar points which are elongated and tuck nicely / snugly behind the beautiful black blazer, giving it perfect contour and balance.
The addition of the eyelet holes with an accompanying bronze collar bar makes the tie absolutely pop. Using a four-in-hand tie knot is best with this shirt.
The collar points are longer than normal (3 5/8″ vs. 3″) with a 4 3/4″ spread between points. The eyelet hole location is critical to ensure the top knot has enough room to emerge and “pop”.
Cocktail cuffs are a Bond standard that have become a Deo Veritas specialty. We’ve receive more and more requests for these cuffs, which means this forgotten classic is making a strong comeback.
