Style Like James Bond
James Bond is set to light up the screen again with No Time to Die. This Bond film will be the last time that Daniel Craig takes on the role of super spy James Bond. It’s a special film and a few of the fashion brands that outfitted Daniel Craig for the film have released limited-edition collections for the public.
A Closer Look at the Connolly 007 Collection
Connolly has been providing British luxury garments since 1878. The British brand is well-known for leather work and Connolly provided Aston Martin with some of its first leather upholstery options. That partnership with Aston Martin flows together seamlessly for Connolly’s new James Bond collection.

One of the items that Daniel Craig sports in the new Bond film is a linen cotton Giubbino Jacket. It’s a retro look with an over-the-shoulder 1950s blend of linen and cotton. The jacket comes in blue with a 007 label sewn into the interior. Connolly is offering the Italian-made jacket on their website for around $600.
In the film, Daniel Craig pairs the blue jacket with an oatmeal-colored linen shirt. You can wear it with rolled-up sleeves and open neckline. Connolly has sewn in mother of pearl buttons and the 007 label. It’s available for around $400.
Connolly adds on to the retro British motorsport vibe with a dark navy drop back car vest that retails in the neighborhood of $325. It’s crafted from merino wool and leather. It has a leather zip pull tab. It’s the same leather that’s featured in the Aston Martin DB5.
Connolly, Aston Martin and James Bond are a natural threesome. The rest of the pieces in Connolly’s 007 collection are leather goods for luxury travel. There’s a pair of driving goggles, a passport holder, credit card case, circuit pouch and keyring.
