Time Lord Wardrobe

The Brits don't really have traditional closets like we have over here on this side of the pond. What we might call an armoire, they call a wardrobe. But mostly a wardrobe is a pile of clothes we use to mix and match everyday to make outfits.

For as long as I have watched Doctor Who (which I started watching in the 70s); I learned that with each regeneration of The Doctor, his personality changes as does his wardrobe. Despite Doctor Who being a sci fi production the appearance of The Doctor is human and hip and modern. In the late 60s the 3rd doctor Jon Pertwee dressed in Victorian Revival regalia complete with crushed velvet jacket and lacy cravets.


The doctors of the past decade still have a modern look that is hard to determine certain "style" you can see personality differences but their style can fit in with any of the past 10 years.

My favorite doctor to date is portrayed by David Tennant; the 10th Doctor

How many synonyms are there for the word HOT!?!?
David's doctor's ensemble consists of a brown wool suit with blue pin stripes. His collar and tie are sometimes askew. He is sometimes seen wearing a taupe wool coat with minimalist military features. The coat has a blue lining. But, my favorite part of  his outfits, AND what began my huge crush for him is that he wears high top Chuck Taylors!














As I do consider David Tennant's doctor to be my 1 and only favorite; I must say this new 11th Doctor is growing me. I used to have a habit of becoming attached to current doctor and when he re generated I would act scorned and hurt like the ex wife ogles the new girlfriend who replaced you, The 11th Doctor has changed my mind about that way of thinking.

Matt Smith is the youngest of all the doctors as to date. Matt is SOOO adorable and he can sport a bow tie like no one else! His catch phrase "bow ties are cool" has become my tag line for my custom bow ties I sell in my Etsy shop. He is also great at wearing a fez! 


And last but not least those totally awesome beatle-esc boots he wears, They are All Saints Layer Boots and hand made.
Just because you are thousands of years old, an alien from planet Gallifrey and are a time lord- you don't have to dress silly like those crazy ole' Martians!.

  3. Oh, I do love a good fez. (I am lusting after a fez of my own, in fact.) I have to agree about the 10th Doctor. He has been my favorite thus far. =)
