Boyscout, FBI agent, obsessive recorder, Dale Cooper is sent to the small town of Twin Peaks to investigate a murder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The local police force, the witnesses, the magnate\u2019s daughter all point it out: he is \u2018not from here\u2019. Against the brown of Washington state, Cooper stands out in his stark black suit-white shirt. He begins with a thin black tie. It is later replaced by stripes, dots, or a rare paisley: we never learn which club they refer to. Above the tie, the collar is always blue or white, sti\ufb00 and full – compare with Sheri\ufb00 Truman and Andy\u2019s brown shirts, pointed, open, and soft. The jacket is simple, with frank shoulders, two buttons, and flap pockets. Mid-rise, the trousers break generously on the city shoes the agent never abandons. Only two particularities: a small Buddhist pin, and a slim black-dial watch with a gold rim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The incorruptible uniform allows Frost and Lynch some fantasy . The duo play with the character. For the woods, a flannel shirt, olive whipcord trousers, and a sand-colored down vest [see also: fishing vest]. For One Eyed Jack\u2019s, the bar-cum-brothel hidden by the town\u2019s robber baron, Cooper wears a double-breasted six-by-one tuxedo, and a wing-collared shirt – a college remnant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2017, Lynch stages the character\u2019s return. Twenty-five years later, the old boy is an old man. He returns in two. In Las Vegas, \u2018Dougie\u2019, green-suited and clumsy , a gold club tie on rather than around his neck. In the Black Lodge,\u2018Mr C\u2019: long hair, cropped A2, python-patterned shirt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only in the last episodes does Kyle McLachlan don the black suit again. More than any declaration of personality , it is the uniform that marks his identity: \u2018Coop is back’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
