A fez was a type of brimless hat with a flat top, usually associated with Arabic culture on Earth. Usually made of red felt, fezzes typically had a single tassel attached to the center of their flat tops.
Ibrahim Namin wore a fez. (DW: Pyramids of Mars)
The Doctor briefly donned a fez while searching through the basement of Windsor Castle, before passing it on to Ace. (DW: Silver Nemesis)
The Doctor wore a fez to a football game in 1977. He originally intended to land the TARDIS near the River Nile which was the reason why he wore the fez in the first place. The Doctor soon lost the fez after the police began to chase him from the Stadium. (DWM: Doctor Who and the Nightmare Game)
The Doctor took a fez from an exhibit in the museum where the Pandorica was, and wore it as he leapt back and forth through time. When River Song queried this he answered, "Its a fez. I wear a fez now. Fezes are cool." Amy Pond took it and threw it, River then shot it.
The Doctor later concluded that he could buy a new one when he remembered he was lacking it. (DW: The Big Bang)
Behind the scenes
- Steven Moffat said that Matt Smith grew fond of the fez so they had to destroy it to stop him from insisting on wearing it next series. Matt Smith had also once said that he hoped the costume evolved to include a hat.
- Following the airing of The Big Bang, Doctor Who Adventures starting running "top five" lists, with the #1 item being awarded the "Golden Fez".
- The fez worn in The Big Bang appears to be lacking a tassel, which is often associated with the hat.
