Earth-616 Doctor Strange costume worn by Benedict Cumberbatch
in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
These five magical costumes worn by Benedict Cumberbatch in the movie were photographed on display at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood on May 9, 2022.
Graham Churchyard was Costume Designer on director Sam Raimi's film, tasked with refining the sorcerer's iconic costume and styling his other-dimensional variants.
Apparently Marvel Studios guru Kevin Feige requested that Doctor Strange's cloaked outfit looked more like a "Master's costume" rather than a "Disciple costume" of Kamar-Taj - his boots are taken higher with tassels and the cuffs are now leather, rather than braided.
Make sure you take a look at the differences between Benedict Cumberbatch's Doctor Strange costume from the first 2016 movie and this version.

At the beginning of the film we meet a different version of the sorcerer in the form of 'Defender Strange', who is fleeing a demon with America Chavez and trying to reach the Book of Vishanti.

The Earth-616 Stephen Strange awakens from a dream after his 'Ponytail Strange' counterpart is killed, and we learn that dreams are windows into the lives of our multiversal selves.
His red and black costume is inspired by his comic book counterpart in the 2011 Defenders series written by Matt Fraction and drawn by Terry Dodson.

Later in the movie we see the 616 hero reanimate Defender Strange by 'Dream-walking' into his dead body, making him 'Zombie Strange'.

America Chavez and Doctor Strange escape into the multiverse and arrive on Earth-838, where they discover a Doctor Strange who was corrupted when he used the evil Darkhold spell book to defeat 'Thanos' and triggered a universe-destroying 'incursion'.
The clean-shaven Strange was sentenced to death by his fellow Illuminati superhuman members and was killed by the Inhuman king 'Black Bolt' on Titan, to prevent him from causing more harm.

Just as the Scarlet Witch is corrupted by the demonic Darkhold book in an effort to be reunited with her lost children, so too was another 'Sinister Strange' who we meet in a dying universe. Earth-616 Doctor Strange defeats this corrupted sorcerer who sports a third eye on his forehead.
