Ever since Jodie mentioned that her doctor costume was entirely inspired by one black and white image I’ve been desperate to try and find it. I had a REAAAL search of Pinterest today and I’m pretty sure I’ve found it!
She described the photo as a short haired woman wearing cropped trousers, a t shirt with braces and boots. This is the only image I’ve found that has that combo. Jodie also mentioned the image was black and white, timeless, and the woman in question was striding deep in thought. The woman above clearly fits all of this, and it had 3k pins on Pinterest so she could quite easily find it.
So yah, I’m 90% sure this is the image that inspired the thirteenth doctor’s look
I found it here: https://pin.it/tnjlqdq2h6jx6u

“I kind of presented a mood board. I had an acorn and he turned it into the most beautiful tree. I could kind of say what I meant, and then he would present a look, and it elevated everything I’d suggested, and erased the bits that he knew without telling me didn’t work. But, essentially, I found a photo, and it’s just a Google image, and I have no idea what decade it is, but it’s a woman in crop trousers that are slightly big, with a T-shirt, and [suspenders], and with boots, walking and thinking. I just love the androgyny of it, without it being masculine, and I think that’s a really important line to find and quite a difficult one as well.”
