Sergio Leone and Clint Eastwood both claimed to have generated the costume for the man with no name in A Fistful of Dollars wherein the poncho has an integral stylistic and narrative place within the film. Clint Eastwood remembered the poncho as a simple piece of ‘Do-it-Yourself’ fashion design in which he cut a hole in a blanket he purchased himself before his arrival on the film set in Spain. Sergio Leone remembered it as part of his own far more considered conception of the man with no name. The poncho in this instance is made by an eminent fashion designer from an old curtain.
