Rest In Peace Sir Sean Connery. Beyond his phenomenal acting career, he lent an inimitable rugged sex appeal to traditional Savile Row tailoring. Here he is being fitted by Antony Sinclair (who actually operated on Conduit Street.) Sinclair was also Ian Fleming and Terence Young’s tailor. Because Fleming considered Connery a “rough diamond” when he landed Dr. No, Young - who directed the film - advised Connery to “sleep in” his Sinclair cut suits so he could convincingly portray James Bond." — Bronwyn Cosgrave, Fashion Journalist
