Bond girls get a lot of stick for their embarrassing double-entrendre names, eagerness to jump into bed with 007 and vacuous personalities.
However, if there's one thing the women in the action hero's life deserve credit for it's their canny sartorial sense and show-stopping wardrobes. And now, thanks to a clever graphic from a London- based marketing agency, you can see every single iconic Bond girl outfit on one picture.
Big Group has created an ‘infographic’ featuring 77 of the most memorable looks from 1962's debut Bond film Dr No all the way through to upcoming movie Spectre, starring Daniel Craig.

'The end result is what we like to think of as the most “iconic” outfits,' Big Group said in a statement. 'The ones the costume department really delivered on and the ones that have passed into the public’s collective consciousness of these much-loved films.
