Lot Essay
The Mexican ‘Day of the Dead’ holiday (Dia de las Muertos) was the focus of the thrilling pre-credits sequence in Spectre in which James Bond (Daniel Craig) appears in this Prince of Wales Tom Ford suit.
Adding to the complexity of the sequence, a full-on street celebration involving 1500 extras, Director Sam Mendes opened Spectre with one continuous shot that follows Bond as he tracks an assassin through a Mexican hotel, up an elevator through different rooms and across rooftops. This is one of four Stage 1 versions of this costume worn by Daniel Craig whilst filming Spectre, 2015, the others retained by the EON Archive.
