Mr. Jeremy Brett and his clothes in "Sherlock Holmes".

[tweed_for_me]

Oh, Christmas is a great time, good food, more food, relax and have time with friends and family.
And, time to watch some great movies and TV series, like Sherlock Holmes, staring Mr. Jeremy Brett. For me, he IS Sherlock Holmes.

So, now I need some help.....I really like the way they did dress back then, men using boots, hats and walking sticks. Nice.
But, some things are not seen anymore, guess out of fashion and out of time. Sadly.
What are the name of the neck wear he uses?
Also, he uses long jackets, length of a coat it looks like, not all the time but now and then. Same for Dr. Watson to. What is that style called? Was it just the way jacket was in that time?

Can a neck wear like that be used today? How about the jacket style and the length?

If Victorian dress is to your liking, what you need to do is find a costume designer well-acquainted with period design. Try perusing the credits of the Sherlock Holmes series to see who the designer was, or contact the network who made the series. Fair warning, period costumes are very pricey. Regarding wearing such garb as street wear is eccentric bordering on peculiar. If dressing up in frock coats, silk
toppers and walking sticks is to your taste, do so in the privacy of your home while watching the series with Jeremy Brett. Better yet, scour book dealers for the the two-volume slipcased set of The Annotated Sherlock Holmes that was published some years ago and compare it to the adaptations that were made for British television.
