What brand(s) of suits does Agent Scully wear in the X-Files TV shows and movies?

My Google-fu has failed me. Thanks.

I don't know off of the top of my head but I bet that if you have access to an episode, it will acknowledge this in the closing credits.

when gillian anderson finally realized scully being frumpy wasn't going to do either of their careers any favors, they started dressing her in armani.

I also don't know, but from industry experience, it's likely that most or all of her costumes were significantly customed-tailored from the originals, or even custom-made, especially in the case of the film's costumes. It'd be hard to say she wore a specific "brand" at all.

It depended but she wore a lot of Armani near the end of the series. Because I am assuming that you aren't looking for the four times too big for her suits that she wore near the beggining, right?

This New York Times article from 1999 says "often confidently dressed in sleek business suits by Calvin Klein and Emporio Armani".

nope. Just checked one from Season 2. Lists Larry Wells as the Costume Designer (looks like he died before Season 3 was completed), but no "Pat Sajak wears suits by the Men's Wearhouse" or anything.

I believe her Vancouver-year costumes were provided by Boboli on South Granville, but they're a multi-designer boutique so no help with specific.

You should buy some from her! (for charity)
