Re: the wardrobe, I'm sure it's been suggested elsewhere (probably in the novels) that much of the stuff was already there when the Doctor stole the TARDIS, and it's been added to over the years by his various selves and their companions. Though why the Time Lord who owned the TARDIS first should have been collecting clothes from Earth I have no idea, and I don't even want to think about where the Sixth Doctor's coat might have originally come from...

...and that makes even less sense to me, because, like you said, what would some other Time Lord want with all those clothes? Aaah. *shrugs*

I...have no idea who is responsible for the Technicolor Dreamcoat. I would imagine it is some far off future society that has evolved beyond language and communicates in colors and fabric patterns; the coat is actually a beautiful retelling of one of that planet's oldest and most complex heroic myths. Unfortunately, this is lost on anyone else looking at it.

I think he nicked it from that Carnival of Monsters guy.

Personally, I think one of my favorite outfits was his lovely white tee in The Silurians. Totally redeemed that episode from its hideous soundtrack.

Entirely possible. It's exactly the sort of thing he'd wear. *shivers*

Hee hee, I am so very tempted to make a cheap gag re: the Outfit That Wasn't in Spearhead from Space, but it is late and I am punchy and cannot think of any. Feel free to insert your favorite joke to that effect here.

And I forgot to mention it in the other comment, so: I find that, the more of this season I watch, the more accustomed I'm getting to the green outfit. I like it much better in Carnival of Monsters, when it's paired with the kickyboots, but overall I think I just had to get over the WHY IS THERE NOTHING RED ON THIS OUTFIT trauma transition. :D
