I'm a sucker for Three's Edwardian getup: the velvet jackets, the inverness cape, Jon wears it really well.

I like the twelfth Doctor’s “Wizard” costume, the zipped up hoodie, the scruffy velvet coat etc.

I'm a big fan of Pertwee's blue jacket with red piping - I like to imagine the Eighth Doctor threw that one on from time to time.

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

With the exception of 5 and 6, I like all of them: they look like slightly eccentric everyday dress that someone might where to express their individuality. With 5 and 6, it feels more like an exercise in "branding" than in costuming. However, 12s Pertwee-inspired jacket with the red lining is a look that i might aspire to.

Easier to say which I didn't like but even then I don't know why and then its only the 2 items together
11th's Jacket and Bow Tie from 5 and 6, The Bow Tie works when the jackets off though
Ones i'm fond of are
8th (All)
7th (All)
3rd (the all green number from Carnival, Frontier, and a bit of Green Death and the one off Purple from Planet of the Daleks)
Regards

I like 12's latter-day costume. The dusty velvety coat and big shirt sleeves. I wish he'd worn that from the start.

I'm sure I'm hopelessly biased toward the Fourth Doctor's outfit, followed by the Sixth Doctor's. They definitely say "The Doctor".

Hmm. My favorites are the aging rock star outfit of the 12th Doctor (Tshirt, hoodie, jacket and the glasses). It just screams "I do not care anymore, I do what I like". And of course I really like the Dark Eyes look of the 8th Doctor. It is just practical (as McGann said when he presented it- "I can run, I can fight in it") and less in the face like the other costumes- with this one, he really can do sneaky and stealthy and it fits well with the darker tone of the stories. You can see that this is not a game or a circus anymore.

I love Capaldi's hoodie/coat combo from S9 and 10 - for the most pragmatic Doctor ("he was dead already, I was saving us..") it makes total sense he dresses practically and more off the peg.
Capaldi has also made comments about how he liked a costume that people could copy affordably for cosplay - something which I think shows quite a bit of class.

So many good ones, and picking a favorite is like picking a favorite Doctor.
The only outfit I don't care for is the all-burgundy version of Tom Baker's outfit that was foisted onto him in his final season. Making that outfit monochromatic ruined the effect. This was also the outfit that introduced the silly question marks on the collars, so I blame the outfit alone for that bit of silliness.
Other Doctor outfits work to varying degrees, but the burgundy Fourth with question marks just doesn't work at all.

The one I'm not keen on is his Season 12-13 outfit. There's something about the corduroy jacket, the argyle cardigan, and the neckerchief that just doesn't look right to me.

Hello again.
No question marks, just no. No question mark collars, braces or jumpers. The question mark brolly I'll allow, just.
Sixth Doctor costume: ow my eyes...
Favourites probably Jon Pertwee's wardrobe just classic. I loved Matt Smith's long Victorian coat in purple. The Twelfth Doctor's costumes were brill. The monks hoodie used to make me chuckle. I liked the nod to the Third Doctor too.

Well. for myself the Fourth Doctors series 13 outfit (burgundy and tweed Edwardian coats, hat and scarf) is the classic look. It is the one referenced in popular culture, from the Simpsons to numerous cartoons and sight gags (Chelmsford 123 anyone?).
Ecclestone's 9th Doctor outfit was the one to consciously break away from the eccentric Edwardian look and made many of us stop and realise what a cliche the outfits had become. Thanks to Matt Smith developing his own costume many elements seem to be hardwired into the character though...
As above posters note, Pertwee and Davison just look so 'right' in their respective outfits. Those with memories of the early 70's pop scene (TOTP) will recall both Rod Stewart (Maggie May Faces era) and Cliff Richard (Congratulations) sporting the same red velvet jacket and frilly white shirt look, proving that he was actually far more hip and fashionable in look for the time than we may appreciate. A bit like McCoy rolling up his jacket sleeves and tucking in his tank top to a set of stonewashed 50's style Denims...

They're all perfect for each of them, and I like all of them for various reasons. But the one that I immediately fell in love with from the first time I saw it was John Hurt's.

I loved the surprise of Capaldi's evolving look. The inspiration behind Whittaker's costume is a fantastic image (https://i.imgur.com/c1amLlB.png), as is the description from the script: downloads.bbc.co.uk/writersroom/scripts/DW11-EP1-The-Woman-Who-Fell-to-Earth.pdfThe curtain is whizzed back on --THE THIRTEENTH DOCTOR. Awesome. Timeless, modern, vintage, contemporary. A cheeky, powerful, charismatic modern explorer.
I know that not everyone loves it, but it won me over right away. I'm looking forward to seeing if/how it changes from this starting point.

A bit like McCoy rolling up his jacket sleeves and tucking in his tank top to a set of stonewashed 50's style Denims... I think an issue I have with the 80s costumes is that they were almost entirely JNT creations, with little input from the writers to see what the character would be to inform the dress, and even less from the actors. I do defend Colin's coat though - I always thought the Rubert Bear trousers were far more of an issue, someone did a photoshop changing the trousers to deep purple and the coat worked 10 times better without a single change. I prefer McCoy with the S26 brown coat over the cream, and I dislike Davison's ensemble - it only added to the tired cliche of him being the "beige", bland Doctor following Tom. Essentially I prefer the character to wear an outfit rather than a costume. McGann's TV Movie duds are nice (if rather overly crafted for a party outfit!) but it's very much informed by lazy "What does the Doctor wear?" thinking - of course he had to dress in a Victorian/Edwardian getup with frock coat.... Jodie's duds I don't like much - the coat is too bland, too much like Davison's, and the loose trousers are fashionable these days but don't mesh well with the rest of the gear. The braces with t-shirt I like. Hearing that she'll change it up a bit in S12 is cool. I never like Who when characters wear the same thing every week a la S19.

I think Four is the only one of the 'silly' ones I like. Perfect for Tom.
That or nine's.
