Back when Highland was on air - I got a leather jacket like what Stan wore. Had it for years. Had it on when I helped deliver my grandson in the front seat of a van. Was going to give it to him when he could fit into it. Alas - our dog took a liking to it before that could happen. Smile. Thanks for the memories.
I just got done watching the series for the first straight through. I love the development of the character. The last two seasons in particular, i love how the shows writing seemed to open up to show Adrian's comic chops even more. It seemed like the show took 2 seasons with the soft reboot to get the show where it needed to be. Props to you Adrian it was a great watch. My parents were watching each episode simultaneously. It has been a bright spot of the pandemic life.
I have had one of the Highlander official merchandise long black wool coats for 20 years... Still wear it on really cold days... For some reason it seems to make certain people's heads explode.. but then I am in Tennessee...
I notice the Demin shirt at one time... But,for myself the classics like Ralph lauren. I use to love to sew and design clothes but the one I have always hung on to was Bob Macky he was before his time.
Watching Highlander is how I became fashion forward. Robert Graham is my number one fashion brand these days, but I've been able to keep a lot of the style from Highlander - henley shirts, vests, long coats, etc. - pair them with modern pieces, and they don't look out of date at all. The style of Highlander is one of the enjoyable things about rewatching. I takes me back. It's almost like a flashback in a show with some really great flashbacks.
One of my favorite things about Highlander was the wardrobe. I loved that in one episode Mac would wear an outfit, and then a couple of episodes later he would have on the same sweater or trousers again. It was like an actual person choosing their clothes from their closet. It made a show about an immortal sword fighter seem more believable.
I used to sew , I’ve made a lot of my clothes and my daughters clothes when they were young. I’ve sewed wedding dresses and custom made curtains and drapes for million dollar homes. Everyone I sewed for loved the way the clothes fit. But a few years ago I was in a coma and got muscle and nerve damage so now I can’t hardly even thread a needle. I miss sewing but luckily my granddaughter is learning to sew, so loves it and she really has the back for it.
I am in the process of making a Highlander fan film where I play Duncan MacLeod. I have spent the last 20 years trying to acquire garments from the TV series. Those elegant flowing dress shirts have been hell. I had to get them custom made. International Male was also a great source back in the day, but they are no longer around. The majority of the items have been endless searches on Ebay and Amazon. But I feel like all that effort is paying off in this film. It looks great on screen! Thanks for sharing this video, it has been something I have been asking for since you started this channel. Hoping the SXP comes back to Oregon soon! Looking forward to crossing swords with you once again! :)
Nothing feels like properly broken in antique leather. I just got this late 50's early 60's Moto Racer jacket, fits like a glove, like I wore it in another life. Truly soft. Beautiful patina. Can't help smiling every time I put it on!
I wore a long coat through most of the 90's trying to look like Duncan lol....I had long hair back then too and so naturally I had a pony tail holder with a silver metal thingamajig on it too....dressing like Sonny Crocket in the 80's and Duncan MacLeod in the 90's lol
Have no favorite designer! For me these prices are way to high! I get a ton of catalogues, where i can buy clothes online. Don't like to go in shops at the moment, with a mask on. On HL i always smiled about the ladies wardrobe , these miniskirts. For me it was more girls look, than younger lady! Loved your long coats, very impressive!
I'll give you a little hint, you don't never buy full price. You always go to the back of the house. Or they go to the garmic district ,some travel to EU buy at discount ship back to the states. For us the first thing I do is hit the sales racks. Don't be a shame to walk into Chico's and hit that sales rack. JC Penny's that or learn how to sew. I have a hard time buying clothes on line. I have to feel and see the fabric.
My Mom was a dressmaker/tailor and all of my best items were from her. I still have quite a few even though she passed in 2015. I had my own personal designer.
My favorite items during the Highlander series was the coat and the pony tail holders. I loved those antique looking pony tail holders. Two years into the pandemic....what are clothes? I usually throw on a nice lounge top to be presentable on camera :). When I do go to the office, I look at a closet full of clothes, they still fit, but can't figure out how to pull together an outfit :).
Couldn't care less about designers but GLAD to see that most of them are going fur-free AT LAST. No more cruelty so rich assholes can flaunt their wealth.
That long black coat Mac had looked marvellous. It defined the 90s somehow. I remember Scully and Mulder sporting those too. Maybe not that dashing. However, since then I'd try to get my hands on one of those but they never even came close of how cool it looked back then. It must be the fabric or material, combined with the thickness and overall cut of it. Guess nowadays it has to be custom made.
No favorite designer here, I'm afraid; I am completely unsophisticated when it comes to clothes. I like Levi's 501s and LL Bean flannel shirts, and I wear a lot of t-shirts. I wish I knew more on the subject, but I don't know where to start. I think I know which leather jacket you're talking about, Adrian - hope it turns up!
Sitting up late and getting caught up on your videos here in the studio. You know it's good that the clothes set the date. It takes place in the 90's so it should look it. I always thought they did a great job with the clothes no matter what date it was set in. I don't have a favorite designer, But with that said I know what I like and I wear it. I have to say though that Levis Stretch jeans are awesome. I like a fitted look but I also like to be able to move having done martial arts for a good portion of my early life. Also a good pair of boots are important, always look for style, comfort and just well made.
I was looking through google news when I came across an article on Highlander: Endgame and it talked about what was in the trailer that never made it into the film showing Connor & Duncan going through a magical portal, Connors head in an orb held by main Villain Jacob and the implication Jacob was not just powerful due to the multiple Quickenings but he was meant to be supernaturally powerful...This trick was done while promoting Justice league loads of scenes filmed just for promotion of the then trash version b4 the definitive cut was released--anyway it was interesting to know those additional scenes were filmed for highlander: Endgame
I am not so much into designers/ brands, it is more about the comfort of how I choose my clothes. E.g. at the moment, I prefer suspenders over belts. I always had my issues with belts.
I would also say the cars, technology featured and the general videography of the show shows its age as well. I did just did a rewatch on Prime last year.
I always thought he dressed cool and with the pony tail, I try to emulate the style but it is tough to pull off, I really like Puma, Eddie Bauer. I try not to chase designers more what suits me or is comfortable. Cheers!
I dress blandly, just jeans, t shirt, and maybe a blazer. Hey what happened to that coat Duncan had in The Source ? That was a spiffy one, unlike Methos' jacket which could have gone without the tassels.
I really didn't have a favorite designer in the 1990's since I was in college at the time. It was more what fit me and what I could afford. I did discover the Highlander series, but I don't remember exactly when. I saw the original movie and when I heard about the series, I did what I could to catch it between classes. As for style, I do adore clothing from the Elizabethan times. My husband and I did a Renaissance Faire style wedding. I'm hoping one day to either get back into my wedding dress, or have one made in a similar style.
I want some Celtic hair clips like the ones worn in the series. My hair is long like how yours looked on the Highlander series. Don’t have a favorite designer, basically I wear whatever I can afford. There will never be a time like the 90’s. Cable television really isn’t a thing anymore, but it was fun to watch the show on USA channel on a big bulky cube shaped tv lol
While it was merch.. I had/still have an emerald green robe that was cut great, the feel and everything .. of course now it's kinda threadbare and no longer in use. But, looking for something of similar style & cut .. not finding it anywhere. Now, also had gotten the hmm... kinda golf cap, not sure what you call that, in a nice tartan .. it's gotten quite faded now but still my fav to wear when I take the dog out. Kinda stick with the london fog type black coat when it's warm enough which is just classic. Think I'd better start rewatching from the beginning to freshen all that back into memory again though. You were lucky that they always seemed to have a great wardrobe goin' for ya. Anyway.. *chuckling.. even this vid was out 2yrs ago and I'm just seeing it so.. time, funny thing it is. *cheers.!
really don't have favorite designer clothes are clothes to me if it looks nice I get it and so I am really not set on a designer I think I still have a long trench coat or whatever they call them that the button came off on I really liked that coat I do have it is still hanging in the closet.
I’m re-watching the series right now and the one clothing article I see in abundance are vests! I had forgotten how popular they were in the 90s! Duncan had great style…yet still dressed practically. I’m into Gautier and Chanel for clothing designers.
My favorite designer for jeans is Levi or wrangler. As for suits, in August Im going to Brooks Brothers for my 1st tailor made 3 piece suit. Shoes are whatever is on sale but with the suit probably I will go with the person who helps me at the store.
👍 You were wearing nice clothes in Highlander, I was watching every thing you wore 😊and the actual television series 😊 the wardrobe coordinator was doing excellent work, that is one of the first things that caught my attention as well as the good samaritan personality and we'll groomed. Oh gosh I can not select one designer, all of the successful designer's would be my favorite! I hope that answers your question? All the designer are 👍great, of course choose what you like and what style is right or glamorous for you. I have semi long sweaters and coats, I do want to buy a full length boomer black or cashew colored leather coat. I am going to start watching HIGHLANDER again.
I still like the fashion. I have no favorite designer. I always wear casual. Slacks, long sleeved shirts, sneakers. I've always tried not to stand out... admittedly, that can be difficult.
I got a kick out of this…disclaimer…I always thought about Duncan’s wardrobe to represent the swashbuckling personality he had LOL…But I must admit I am a blue Jean/t-shirt kinda “kid.” I loved the Trench coats and the 3/4 leather jackets…I could never wear clothes like Duncan wore…too short…and I’m built more like a linebacker…I don’t think the clothes date the show that much…
A question I always wondered about, the hair ties you wore with the Celtic knots, where did they come from? I have short hair now, but I would have loved to have them when I still had long hair. And I think my girlfriend would would enjoy them.
Whatever is cheap and comfortable. I have zero interest in paying more if I don't have to, especially since I have never made a lot of money. Having said that, there was a time I was into shoes and liked Steve Madden and Kenneth Cole.
I don't think it ever gets dated due to the fact that flashback scenes were always great costumes were always bang on and when your watching highlander now the coats leather jackets were awesome. Was it a conscious decision on your part to dress more casually from season 2 compared to season 1 where you were wearing shirts and pants whereas in season 2 jeans more and t shirts.
Loved the men’s clothes in the series but now I cringe at the women’s… the huge shoulder pads or the pleated long skirts🤦🏽♀️ big hair with SO much hairspray! “The Great Wall” of bangs is how we referred to it. 😂🤣
Back in the Highlander days I bought A LOT of Duncan-ish clothes from a company called International Male. Sadly they are no longer but I spent a small fortune there back in the day... even a sales rep on the phone looking at my account once couldn't believe how much I had bought lol ... of course this was back when you could make money being a musician lol
The long coat is timeless. Hope you find the jacket.
I've had a long wool coat since I last visited England and love it.....classic!
Hope you find one.
Adrian, they really dressed you nicely!
Back when Highland was on air - I got a leather jacket like what Stan wore. Had it for years. Had it on when I helped deliver my grandson in the front seat of a van. Was going to give it to him when he could fit into it. Alas - our dog took a liking to it before that could happen. Smile. Thanks for the memories.
Hope the coat turns up!! I wear a uniform mostly so whoever makes those!!

Like all the outfits.
I have had one of the Highlander official merchandise long black wool coats for 20 years... Still wear it on really cold days...
For some reason it seems to make certain people's heads explode.. but then I am in Tennessee...
Loved the designer outfits he would wear at the end of the episodes!
I notice the Demin shirt at one time... But,for myself the classics like Ralph lauren. I use to love to sew and design clothes but the one I have always hung on to was Bob Macky he was before his time.
Watching Highlander is how I became fashion forward.

"clothes were brought to us by the (pause) Wardrobe person" Lol

Adrian Paul, what I like that you wore in the serious was that long black trench coat and cowboy boots!
My Mom was a dressmaker/tailor and all of my best items were from her. I still have quite a few even though she passed in 2015. I had my own personal designer.
The sweaters you had worn were gorgeous. I just watched the show because of the wardrobe!
Goodwill was my favorite designer. LOL!

Duncan's outfits were very sharp, pants seemed a little high sometimes but he always looked great!
Remember , everything old becomes new again eventually.

Very interesting, thank you for sharing this!
Favorite designers are Canali, Dunhill, Ted Baker, Porsche Design, and Dunhill.

I would also say the cars, technology featured and the general videography of the show shows its age as well. I did just did a rewatch on Prime last year.
Adrian started swag in my opinion best show ever still my hero

I wasn't a big fan. I was glad when they transitioned away from them.
Watched some Highlander series on Tubi tonight. I see you've aged well. Great show then and now.
Lot of the 90s fashion coming around again now
My favorite designer for jeans is Levi or wrangler. As for suits, in August Im going to Brooks Brothers for my 1st tailor made 3 piece suit. Shoes are whatever is on sale but with the suit probably I will go with the person who helps me at the store.
All the ling coats are my favorite.

I am going to start watching HIGHLANDER again.
My fav designer is Oscar de la Renta and guess wot I loved the highlander wardrobe because it was very nineties x
I’m sorry you lost the leather. That was my favorite piece. I favor Mason & Sons and T.M. Lewin.
I still like the fashion. I have no favorite designer.
I always wear casual. Slacks, long sleeved shirts, sneakers. I've always tried not to stand out... admittedly, that can be difficult.
I enjoyed Canali and Hugo Boss suits. But now that I’m semi retired, it’s cargo shorts, polos, and t-shirts here in sunny Florida.
I always liked the boots. I think they were black western boots, but not with the turned up super pointy tips.
My favourite designer...? Hmmm... My mom! She used to make my clothes and made me a three piece suit once.
I got a kick out of this…disclaimer…I always thought about Duncan’s wardrobe to represent the swashbuckling personality he had LOL…But I must admit I am a blue Jean/t-shirt kinda “kid.” I loved the Trench coats and the 3/4 leather jackets…I could never wear clothes like Duncan wore…too short…and I’m built more like a linebacker…I don’t think the clothes date the show that much…
I'm in the same boat, Brad... short and stocky, and a lot of things just don't look good on me. :(
A question I always wondered about, the hair ties you wore with the Celtic knots, where did they come from? I have short hair now, but I would have loved to have them when I still had long hair.
And I think my girlfriend would would enjoy them.
I think some of the items came from the now-defunct clothing retailer, Structure.
Oh my god he has a youtube. YES!
Whatever is cheap and comfortable. I have zero interest in paying more if I don't have to, especially since I have never made a lot of money. Having said that, there was a time I was into shoes and liked Steve Madden and Kenneth Cole.
The 90's high-waist jeans/pants on anyone just kills me when I see them. Only skinny-jeans matches that sort of wince-factor.
Walmart is my only designer😂
I don't think it ever gets dated due to the fact that flashback scenes were always great costumes were always bang on and when your watching highlander now the coats leather jackets were awesome.

My wife is my favorite designer. She tells me what I'm going to wear and how to wear it 😒.
I'm to poor to have a favorite designer. lol
so many turtle necks.
Hate to say it Adrian, but when a man says he lost a favourite item of clothing normally it’s because the wife hates it and got rid of it, lol 😂
It might be the coat he lost at an airport.
@@aliciaborth3016 true……or is that what he thinks and the wifey is helping him to believe it…..lol 😉😉
Was it your idea for the Highlander to have a ponytail?
Hope u find the jacket
What are your thoughts about a Methos series or film?
What happened to the Thunderbird?
Good day Adrian..
Back in the Highlander days I bought A LOT of Duncan-ish clothes from a company called International Male. Sadly they are no longer but I spent a small fortune there back in the day... even a sales rep on the phone looking at my account once couldn't believe how much I had bought lol ... of course this was back when you could make money being a musician lol
