Somehow the outfit and the pose say "Dr Strange" to me more than "The Doctor".

I suppose that will depend on whether the red linings of his coat were dyed with real Dalek blood, or not.

Wouldn't it be more of a sickly green, then?

Only to human eyes. Timelords would see it in its proper shades of crimson, scarlet, and ch!tang.

Oh, but that's so last-season! The Lhari fashion designers have declared that catalyst color is the new octarine. Since they're completely color-blind, their judgement is quite unprejudiced and is thus unquestionable.

Does he look a bit like Anthony Bourdain to anybody else?

It was nice until you get to his trouser bottoms. It's like they forgot to hire a tailor this time. Even if he was going for the "practical Marital Artists" look, The bottoms are still tapered in too much, and it gives it an overall baggy, sloppy look.

Even Tennant's Doctor(who seemed to have the longest cuffs of all of them, and perhaps the baggiest), was tailored and polished.

If they wanted a skinny trouser, they should have designed it all the way down as such. My Mother is a professional Tailor, and has worked on five figure suits and ball gowns, and I've learned many things over the years from her, and I know she'd nit-pick and complain about the shoddy tailoring, or the bad photography/PS job if that is indeed proper looking in the series.

Just my 2cp.

I like it!

And that's coming from someone who hasn't gotten so far into Doctor Who that I can speak like a true Whovian but is far enough in that I've already claims the Tenth as my Doctor...the crush I have on David Tennant is pretty ridiculous.

Huh...now that you mention it...if Anthony ever went for a more dressy look than I'm used to seeing him wear I think it would be this one.

If you're crushing on him as the Doctor, you'll fall madly in lust over him as Hamlet(this coming from someone who HATES that play), he was....um...very good?

Baggy?

As someone who watched Doctor Who^ from the 4th through to the 8th (and looking at the outfits of 1st through to 3rd), for the Doctor that not baggy

^ including, apparently, from behind a couch during a early Dalek episode

I've actually seen a clip from his Hamlet (the famous soliloquy), so I know that it's probably pretty awesome.

Thankfully I do not have a predisposition to dislike Hamlet productions...unfortunately, I have a husband who is less inclined to spend time watching classical theater productions (even if they star his favorite Doctor).

I'll have to see if I can snag a copy on a staycation when he's finally working (job starts in late March...finally!).

i think what she's talking about, is his pants from the knees down... they are all bunched up and too long for him, and anybody that is that fashion-conscious enough to have the clothes that he does have on, AND look good doing it, would definitely be aware that his pants are ill-fitting... so WHY are they not correct?, especially with a British icon like The Doctor?! in my opinion; i think the BBC flubbed this photo set...

The Doctor is always eccentric, in one way or another... quite often in his choice of clothing. It would not be at all surprising to me if one if the 13th Doctor's quirks were an extreme fashion-consciousness with a major blind spot or a deliberate inconsistency.

After all, he had to give up the chin... needs to gain something in return!

Would not surprise me in the slightest to learn this is a PSD(PhotoShopDisaster). I simply refuse to believe the BBC would let the Doctor look so sloppy.

I'm actually hoping to see un'chopped pictures in the near future.
