Tom Ford explained in a Fresh Air interview that he created a back story for George’s suit based on the George character. He decided that George would have had his suit custom made on Saville Row on a trip home to England, which informed its cut and color. He also decided that, since ‘old-school’ British people of wealth tend to be thrifty with clothing, that his suit was a few years old. Ford even went as far as putting a label on the inside of the suit with his name and the date that it was made for him (1957).

I walked onto the set […] and ran straight into Gary Oldman, who was hung like a water buffalo. I don’t know if the material was different. I don’t know if there was the trick of the color-coding, or whether he’s just special. He has never let on and we’ve become good friends and you know, I’d love to get drunk with him and just say, “Gary, come on. Let’s see it.” -Colin Firth
