The Beatles had many wardrobes as a band - and then finally went individual and free-lance in their latter touring days off-stage - and totally free when they stopped touring.

Ill vote for F. In fact....Id like to see Macca dress like that now. Grow the beard...let the hair grow longer and comb in back...and let it go grey...not totally..but a nice salt and pepper thing going on. It would probably look great. The hair color he is doing now if fine of course...but is is pushing 70...and au natural would look pretty cool I think.

I like D, but overall prefer F - but "one night only " for the other looks might be fun - well....on Halloween?
If you really look at the fashion of the time they wore them, it really does reflect their music and band status at that time.

I'd go with "F" as well, but I think the suits were quite smart-looking...

I was listening to a Pod cast with the subject....why are the White Album and Abbey Road the highest selling albums every year...Beatle albums of course...and they were saying it's because they were and are still cool looking in this time period. I'm not sure if they meant fashion wise...but the music sort of fits they way they just let it all hang out.

F is the greatest for me. I was a kid during that time, and the frat at the top of the hill where I lived (an Animal House-Type frat) played the White Album constantly. They all dressed like The Beatles from the Abbey/White Album era. They just looked cool to me. Cool question.

Probably, my least favorite were the Shea Stadium beige/brown suits - though I know a lot of people liked them - then they got cool with the Rubber Soul garb.
