Daniel Craig slays deep fuchsia pink velvet tuxedo at ‘No Time to Die’ premier

As the cast and crew lit up the Royal Albert Hall in London for the world premier of No Time To Die, all eyes were set on Daniel Craig, the OG James Bond who led the fashion pack in a deep fuchsia pink velvet tuxedo. The glitzy event was star-studded with Kate Middleton and Prince William, Prince Charles and his wife Camilla, Billie Eilish and Phoebe Waller-Bridge making an appearance. 

However, among his stylish co-stars and guests, it was Craig who stole the spotlight and his deep fuchsia pink velvet tuxedo became the talk of the town as he marked his final turn as 007. Unlike the typical muted tone tuxedos that James Bond wore while scaling buildings in his most fastidious spy mode, Craig stood out in a fitted bespoke pink jacket from Savile Row tailor Anderson & Sheppard.

The jacket came with a custom double-breast and sported pink velvet buttons fastened perfectly. It was paired with a crisp white Turnbull & Asser shirt inside and an artfully dishevelled white pocket square to accentuate the look.

Craig added a black bow tie which matched his pair of black tailored trousers and black patent Crockett & Jones shoes. Accessorising his look with a Sedna gold Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra wristwatch and a pair of pink cuffs, Craig made jaws drop by flouting the rule that pink and red should never be worn together but still pulling it off in a unique dapper style.

As soon as the pictures surfaced on the Internet, Twitter was flooded with reactions. Check out fans reaction to Craig's sartorial choice:
