And James here.

This one I'm not so sure about... It's either utterly brilliant or absolutely hideous. He looks like he's a member of Hot Chip or something. Sorry about the size of the pic, don't know how to make it smaller when posting it from a link.
Hehe..now he looks like a memeber of Barenaked Ladies

I dunno but I've always thought that JDB tends to wear very loose fitting clothing (specially before they release the RTF) that make him look like a big potatos bag, also he looks shorter than he really is. If I were their image consultant (JDB and SM) they would have surely beaten Sheeran on the charts. :3 By Glasto gig he looked quite uncomfortable because of his loose blazer, jacket anyway.

Sorry in This one they're looking terrible

If i didn't knew he's a Manic and came across him in the street i'd probably took to my heels.



Here JDB looks like my grandpa


Here's a robber or homless guy




He probably looks like Jim Kerr but i don't like anyway



Shivers... Looks like my maths teacher

First of all, I would ask jDB for his hat rather than asking him for an autograph



This one is funny



Quite the contrary, this is my favorite


I think that ist all...

This has got to be one of their best group shots ever. Look at Sean's slippers! It's not only their clothes, though; the expressions on their faces clearly show that they were having a lovely day and enjoyed posing for the camera.

Is your grandpa still single? Or your maths teacher, for that matter? I mean, without the glasses... not so bad. I do like the beard.

Red - not Jimmy's colour? What about pink, then? Maybe combined with a red hat?



And it is James in this one, right? He looks so.... different...?

Oh, so this must be the photographic evidence of the "sailor suit incident" he's talking about in this video? The counterpart being this one here?

In more recent years, I think James' "homeless tramp" look from his 2006 tour and his Saddam beard from the NT era definitely make it into the fashion faux pas list, even if they aren't strictly clothes related!!!

James should not be wearing suit jackets or suits full stop, they just highlight his gradual evolution into Del Boy

I enjoy Nicky's fashion disasters so much that I spend a considerable chunk of my life putting together me-sized recreations of them

James once told me he got his 'best-ever jumper' from Hanley market (in Stoke), and I have always hoped he meant the rainbow monstrosity from the first post in this thread. Looks like standard Hanley market fare tbh.
