BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / Martin's Sassy Fashion

**Posted by Sherlock Holmes** September 10, 2013 11:22 am

So, I absolutely love the way he dresses. I can't get over it. I want to start dressing like Martin on a daily basis whenever I'm not cosplaying (so basically cosplaying when not cosplaying, in a way). I bought some salmon pink chinos the other day but I need further advice on the types of things I should be looking out for.

Pictures and recommendations, please. And if you find any cheap places to buy some of his clothes or something that looks similar, do let me know.

And this thread is for discussing anything to do with his amazing fashion sense and how sassy it makes him look.

Example of sass:

One word: jumpers

Now that winter is coming you should find them easily enough. Try Primark and H&M.

Yes! Well, I have John jumpers. Like, I have the black and white one, and the cream one, and a black, white & brown one that is John-esque. Could you recommend any other styles that you've seen Martin wear?

I'm sure I've seen him in a grey cardigan before, maybe a black one too.

Great thread, but then any thread concerning Martin is a great thread

He has such a good sense of style, with him you always get the impression he knows what he is wearing and why!

Grr, so damn sexy. I read his interview with Esquire and wrote down all the clothes they recommended but they're kind of mightily expensive. It gave me a good idea about the type of thing to look out for though.

Does this mean, Boss, you've changed sides and scrapped that fabulous coat of yours?

Ahh, no not at all. It's been a little too warm for the coat the past three months but I gave it an airing the other day in London. I just want to dress like Martin whenever I'm not cosplaying. Because he's my style icon.

I'll have to take some pictures!

I've just ordered this Harrington jacket:

You know how there's a Wear Sherlock...there really needs to be a Wear Freeman, so that fans know where to buy his clothes.

Like this little number he was spotted wearing at the stage door of Richard III

It's available to buy here:

Martin's fashion sense amazes me. I swear he pulls off the most fascinating combination of outfits.

**Posted by Germansherlockfan** July 8, 2014 5:19 pm

I also like his fashion sense very much, so colourful and bright, always with stylish little details like the colour-coordinated pocket square or a retro bag and beautifully composed and mixed together, he looks somehow unique and special in an effortless and easy way.

He's my style icon.
