Just saw an update about the Bond casting claiming that Harris Dickinson dropped out and told Denis and the producers he no longer wanted to do another long-term role with his current work schedule. This actually makes sense with him doing The Beatles movies right now and Amazon wants the new Bond actor to commit for at least a decade of 4 to 5 movies. Supposedly too Harris made the top 4 of the shortlist along with Jacob Elordi, Callum Turner, and mystery 4th actor, and was supposed to do the 2nd round of auditions next month. Harris would've been great, but I totally understand why if he dropped out.

31 Days of Bond Fashion

DAY 18: THE CORDUROY MASSIMO ALBA 'SLOOP' SUIT as seen in No Time To Die (2021).

At the beginning of No Time To Die, James Bond might have been on holiday, but that was no excuse for poor fashion. Moreover, a grave visit – specifically to Vesper Lynd’s grave – was hardly going to happen in anything other than a tie. The answer to respectable holiday fashion was clear to costume designer Suttirat Anne Larlarb: a relaxed suit.

Larlarb explained: "He starts at a point in which we’ve never seen him before. It’s very clear at the beginning of our film that he’s made a choice to reject his old life. So, in order to do that, there were some rules that I felt were really necessary to have that relaxation visually…it’s the most relaxed version of a romantic getaway travel look without being like a structured Safari suit..It just needed to telegraph romance, travel and luxury all in one outfit.”

From Massimo Alba, the so-called ‘Sloop’ suit was unlined and made from a fine corduroy. It had three pockets with flap on the front of the jacket, double vents on the back and four buttons on the cuff. Lalarb chose the suit in the colour ‘Desert,’ matching the stony, sandy surroundings of Matera – clothes that blend into the background are common across the film. Leaning into its Italian roots, Lalarb then paired the suit with a blue Brunello Cucinelli Oxford shirt. The look was finished off with Drake's Crosby boots, Albert Thurston braces and a textured Alexander Olch tie.

Once again, Daniel Craig was at the heart of his character’s choices: he’d recently bought a pair of fine-ribbed corduroy jeans for his own use and liked them so much he mentioned Massimo Alba to the costume buyers. Maybe he knew it would be comfortable enough to perform a few stunts in.

Fans of the ‘Sloop’ suit can find it on Massimo Alba’s website for $1,667.
