To celebrate two major anniversaries in the James Bond universe, Orlebar Brown has once again teamed up with the legendary 007 franchise to launch an exclusive capsule collection: the Golden Year. This limited line pays tribute to the 50th anniversary of The Man with the Golden Gun and the 60th anniversary of Goldfinger, offering an elegant combination of style and sophistication that pays homage to the spy’s iconic sartorial choices.
A touch of gold
It couldn’t be Golden Year without a touch of luxury, and Orlebar Brown made sure that gold was a dominant feature in the collection. Swim shorts and pants feature engraved Orlebar Brown x 007 side buckles, while gold hardware, including the buckles on the iconic terrycloth jumpsuits, adds an extra layer of refinement. These gold accents pay homage to the glamour and style associated with the Bond universe, bringing a touch of 007 elegance to every piece.
Iconic Bond-inspired designs
Drawing inspiration from Bond’s unforgettable looks in The Man with the Golden Gun and Goldfinger, the collection features several signature pieces. Highlights include swim shorts and a zebra-print shirt, a tribute to the beach scene with the villain Scaramanga.
For fans of Bond’s refined, tailored style, there are swim shorts in Glencheck pattern, directly inspired by the legendary suit worn by Bond in Goldfinger.
A knitted polo shirt, reminiscent of the knitted tie worn by Sean Connery as Bond, also makes an appearance, as do golden swim shorts and shirts that echo the opulence of the Bond universe.
Finally, a pair of black swim shorts, with a laser-cut 007 logo on the back, pay homage to the famous laser scene in Goldfinger.
