Besides playing James Bond, Pierce Brosnan may be best known for his undeniably good sense of style. The Irish actor, who took on the role of James Bond in the award-winning films from 1995 to 2002, not only has mastered the art of acting but managed to perfect the art of dressing too. From his casual linen looks and pared-down off-duty ensembles to his red carpet suiting choices that always seem to involve an unexpected accessory (such as a silk scarf or pair of tinted sunglasses), the famous star consistently is impressively dressed.
The performer has had countless number of style-forward moments throughout the years. Take a look ahead at some of our favorites.
