007th Heaven: From Ursula Andress's Bikini to Daniel Craig's Trunks, the Iconic Props From 50 Years of James Bond Movies
Some of the most memorable images and items from film have gone on display as a half century of secret agent James Bond is celebrated in a new exhibition. More than 400 items have been assembled as part of Designing 007: 50 years of Bond Style. Many exhibits, revealed at a press preview, come from famous moments in the films and are synonymous with the series. The exhibition opens with an immediate wow factor, as film posters stretch along a corridor where a replica Sean Connery leans against his beautiful 1964 Aston Martin DB5. The white bikini Ursula Andress wore as she emerged from the sea in Dr. No’s jaw-dropping beach scene is also on display alongside other but slightly less renowned swimwear. The bikini, quite tiny close up, is displayed alongside Halle Berry’s orange two-piece from Die Another Day and a recreation of Sir Sean Connery’s shorts from Thunderball. Current Bond Daniel Craig, set to reappear in Skyfall in the autumn, won over many female Bond fans when he wore a pair of tight blue trunks in Casino Royale. July 11, 2012
