In a departure from subtlety, Tom Ford’s latest menswear collection, under the creative direction of Peter Hawkings, has embraced a bold, sexy, and unapologetic aesthetic. Inspired by the iconic rockstars of the past, such as Mick Jagger and David Bowie, the collection is a masterful blend of simplicity, elegance, and daring extravagance.
The looks evoke a bygone era of nightlife, where men dressed to impress, and sophistication was the only currency that mattered. The collection begins with a nod to the timeless ’60s style, featuring crisp white and black pinstripe suits, turtlenecks, and leather trenchcoats that exude effortless cool. Oversized sunglasses, a signature Tom Ford staple, add a touch of glamour to every look.
As the collection progresses, it transforms into a dazzling display of peacocking, with pastel-colored suits, pearly black ties, and skinny sequin scarves making a statement. Bold fuchsia and turquoise styles follow, featuring velvet trousers, button-downs, and turtlenecks that command attention. The pièce de résistance is a full-on disco glam extravaganza, with blazers, trousers, and blouses adorned with an array of patterns, sequins, and gold accents.
Throughout the collection, Hawkings’ direction is clear: to redefine menswear with a sense of fun, sophistication, and unbridled glamour. The result is a collection that is equal parts nostalgic and forward-thinking, perfect for the modern man who dares to make a statement.
