James Bond shows style in 'Skyfall'

This film image released by Sony Pictures shows Daniel Craig in a scene from the film "Skyfall." The super spy might be 50 years old on screen but he never wants to look out of date. It's a unique dressing challenge for a character that is simultaneously modern and timeless. Costume designer Jany Temime says her mantra for the entire wardrobe of "Skyfall," which opens Friday, Nov. 9, 2012, was "iconic for 2012."

This film image released by Sony Pictures shows Berenice Marlohe in a scene from the film "Skyfall." For Marlohe, costume designer Jany Temime envisioned an Ava Gardner type. She required two knockout gowns, one a second-skin L'Wren Scott number that Marlohe had to be sewn into each morning, and a red, slinky Donna Karan.

This film image released by Sony Pictures shows Naomie Harris in a scene from the film "Skyfall." Harris needed high-action clothes and ends up in a Belstaff jacket, tank top and leather trousers.

This film image released by Sony Pictures shows Berenice Marlohe in a scene from the film "Skyfall." "I didn't follow fashion, I followed the script. But I know these characters, and I know what he or she would wear and why. I really tried to ask, 'What would that character really buy?'" costume designer Jany Temime said.

This film image released by Sony Pictures shows Berenice Marlohe in a scene from the film "Skyfall." "When you think of the iconic Bond girl, you think sexy, smart, strong — and, of course, a killer body," says designer Donna Karan.

This film image released by Sony Pictures shows Naomie Harris in a scene from the film "Skyfall." Costume designer Jany Temime dressed "Skyfall" co-stars Naomie Harris and Berenice Marlohe in styles worthy of their predecessors, such as Halle Berry and Ursula Andress, who both wore bikinis with holsters, and Barbara Bach, whose thigh-high slit gowns were really up to there.
