This is a huge pet peeve of mine!!! If you want what I consider the definitive
look for Sherlock Holmes based on the books, please check out the series from
the 1980s starring Jeremy Brett. As appropriate, he only wears a grey
deerstalker and inverness maybe 3 times the entire series, always when
traveling to the country. There was a lot of research and knowledge involved
in the costuming (and overall production design, for that matter) for that
show. It is excellent and I highly recommend it! Dear Brett played Holmes to
perfection, flaws and all.
