Classy but bland. Might be owning myself there though, because apart from the waistcoat and the long collared shirt, the Doctor now dresses exactly like me.

I'm sure he has one for the Hamptons.

re: 11 and River, I find myself perversely conflicted about the fact that her story seems to be done now that 11 is gone. Her reactions to 10 seemed to imply that the length of time she'd known the Doctor had included multiple regenerations, which befitted a character who was presented as A (if not The) Great Love of the Doctor's life. Instead, she winds up basically being 11's Rose.

Not sure about the waistcoat underneath his natty coat though. The lighting, and the way it's cut so straight across the bottom makes it look more like a cardigan.

I'm pretty sure that it is a cardigan.

Kind of funny how that works, given how 9 plus 3 equals 12, which I'm not sure if that's intentional or not.

The lack of tie or something is really bothering me. Either undo the top button or wear something around your neck. To me that always looks really awkward.

It's a very punky-looking Pertwee though, for sure. If he was wearing a pair of brothel creepers, I wouldn't be surprised.

Capaldi's face reminds me of an older David Tennant.

His costume is most def. Pertwee.

I hope they're going for a venusian aikido kind of Doctor, with modern production values it's going to be AMAZING.

And yes, we do need the Master to be the first time lord to escape Gallifrey.

I thought Colin wanted what became the 9th Doctor's costume?

Still, I like the sleek, Pertwee-esque look of the costume. Hopefully this means a return of Bessie and/or the Whomobile.

I do agree, with no tie, he needs to unbutton the top button.

This. I'll put in the request.

Solid design, really would like to see it without the jacket since that's apparently a cardigan under there.

Anyone found in color tweaked versions of it yet, like reverse red/blue one?

Thank ye. :)

The only thing that kind of throws me off about it is the lack of a tie (and those giant-rear end collar ends). Otherwise I think it looks like a really cool look. Then again Capaldi picked it out himself so he had like 50 years of ideas of what the Doctor should look like informing his decision.

A loving cardigan? That's it, Moffat has finally gone too far, there can be no forgiveness for him this time.

While I dig the 'no frills, no scarf' attitude, that outfit reeks of your dad spending his Primark vouchers.

I've heard conflicting stories. Colin either wanted what eventually became Ecceleston's outift, or he wanted something more somber like what Hartnell wore, with the former being the more common tale.


As for the outfit...I like it. Not what I was expecting, but I do like the whole Pertwee-esque style Capaldi is going for. That said, the soles of his shoes seem...oddly large for that kind of shoe. Probably going to be hand-waved as being "better traction" or "better detection of things" or "kicking tempermental consoles and/or heads in".

Didn't they do that for one of the early 2000s web animations (because they couldn't animate the actual costume due to all the colors)?

At Chicago TARDIS, someone asked Colin if he knew what he would have picked if he had input into the costume, and his response was, "yes, and then they gave it to Christopher Eccleston!"

It was for the webcast "Real Time" with Evelyn Smythe. Big Finish has since used the blue suit on several of their covers, and, of course, an action figure was produced with it.
