Surprising GQ award of world’s best dressed man for Daniel Craig have suggested the idea of this topic to me.
Who of the Bond actors was the best dressed one in your opinion, who was wearing his clothes with the biggest dose of class (we analyse only their apperance in Bond films)?
Obviously styles change over the years, certain crafts, patterns and fabrics go out of fashion, but the overall impression of elegance is (or should be) timeless. It especially should applied to Bond who is supposed to be synonym of a classy man.
So who was the best in this role?

Re: The best dressed Bond
Tough call. All the Bonds have their share of sartorial faux pas - The Bond Files even has a section in each film's listing called "James Bond - Fashion Victim". But at the same time, all the first 5 Bonds look good in a tux (I'll reserve judgement on Craig until we see his "more refined Bond" in Bond 22). So I call a 5-way tie!Robert Stirling wrote:Obviously styles change over the years, certain crafts, patterns and fabrics go out of fashion, but the overall impression of elegance is (or should be) timeless.

Sean Connery - Pure class. He always looked the best in the suits.
Daniel Craig - Brought back the three piece suit in a dangerous way.
Pierce Brosnan - Had a plethora of nice suits.
George Lazenby - Didn't look too bad in scotish clothing.
Roger Moore - Always left me with the impression wearing a silly safari suit. It fits his Bond.
Timothy Dalton - Kept wearing a bottoned shirt with the top 3 bottons undone. This is Bond, not Indiana Jones. They should have had him wearing suits like Connery because he looked great in them in a few scenes.
