Tom Ford Mens and Womens Fall 2024

.new collection
TOM FORD / Fall 2024
The Audacious Vision

written Sarah Arendts

TOM FORD's Fall 2024 collection emerges as a powerful expression of luxury redefined, curated under the innovative direction of Peter Hawkings.

The TOM FORD woman this season asserts a bold presence. Her style is direct, streamlined, yet brimming with movement. From flaring trousers in pantsuits to elongated coats with stately high collars, each piece makes a deliberate statement of power and poise. Alongside structured looks are liquid-like jersey dresses and velvet swimsuits that wrap the body in sheer elegance, allowing her to showcase strength in femininity.

The collection rounds out with essential accessories—high-heeled shoes, neatly designed clutches, and commanding square sunglasses, each adding layers to her mystique.

Materials play a critical role in enhancing the tactile experience of the Fall24 lookbook. Silk jersey, double georgette, and lurex velvet dance together with more resilient fabrics like cashmere flannel and stretch velvet, all draped in a palette that speaks in whispers of midnight blues, creamy ivories, and rich indigos. Each texture interacts with light and shadow, making the lookbook a sensory journey through touch and sight.

Parallel to the dynamic TOM FORD woman, the collection introduces a man of equal confidence and style. His attire speaks volumes about meticulous craftsmanship and an unyielding embrace of modern masculinity. Sharp suits with peak lapels and military-inspired peacoats showcase a strong, definitive outline, while softer elements like suede and wool blend seamlessly into his wardrobe. His evening attire glistens with metallic finishes and subtle prints, blurring the lines between daywear and nightlife allure.

The accessories designed for him—ranging from sleek sneakers to structured cross-body bags—reflect a lifestyle that values both aesthetics and functionality. His presence in the lookbook is seen and felt, through the portrayal of garments that embod a sleek ease and a bold defiance.

The Fall 2024 collection by Peter Hawkings is a manifesto of the TOM FORD identity, rearticulated for a new era.

Throwing out the old rulebook, Tom Ford's Summer 2024 collection campaign crash-lands into the fashion universe, proclaiming a revolution where elegance effortlessly mingles with spontaneous chic.

TOM FORD
Summer 2024 Campaign

This season's narrative invitates us all to experiment and to redefine what glamour means on your own terms. Gone are the days when high fashion stood on a pedestal, distant and detached. Tom Ford's Summer 2024 campaign bridges that gap, making luxury accessible through a lens of joy and playfulness, with garments that promise not just to adorn but to amplify the wearer's essence.

The chosen muses for this campaign shot in Rio de Janeiro, embody the essence of this new era. Each model, with their unique allure, captures the spirit of Tom Ford's vision: a world where clothing is a canvas for self-expression, where elegance is spontaneous, and where fashion is an extension of one's identity.

Galiegue's photography injects an intimacy into the campaign, turning each shot into a conversation between the viewer and the viewed. It's a dialogue that speaks of the delicate balance between sophistication and a laid-back allure, of clothes that hang but hug, narrating stories of freedom and playful elegance.

Tom Ford takes us into a realm where the spotlight shines not on the clothes but on the personalities they enhance, where being seen is synonymous with being memorable.

Tom Ford's new campaign is a call to arms—or rather, a call to wardrobes—urging us to embrace our individuality, to find joy in the act of dressing, and to redefine elegance on our terms.

MR PORTER x TOM FORD

New Campaign
MR PORTER x TOM FORD
* A Retro-Futuristic Fusion

written Amanda Mortenson

When two fashion behemoths collide, you best believe the tremors will be felt across the cosmos. Enter TOM FORD—a name dripping in opulence since 2005—and MR PORTER, the men's haven for all things audaciously stylish since 2011. This autumn, expect the unexpected as they drop a collaboration that's pure, unfiltered nostalgia with a 21st-century twist.

The heart of London in the 60s beats within this collection: punk and mod, chaos and class, and all the grey areas in between. We’re talking a 43-piece treasure trove that's a shoutout to an era of fearless expression, but with that ultra-modern TOM FORD sheen. From traditional English textures like puppytooth and herringbone getting a slick overhaul, to audacious pieces like the black leather and shearling peacoats—it's pure decadence.

Mr Daniel Todd, the mastermind Buying Director of MR PORTER, spills on the collab: “We’re soaking up all the vibes from London's edgy counter culture. The luxe fabrics, the textures—it's like diving headfirst into a bygone era, but with a jetpack. It's not just a collection; it's an attitude."

Ready to be shook? MR PORTER’s setting the stage for a global spectacle, ushering in this exclusive capsule. In a world of fleeting fashion moments, this partnership promises an indelible mark.

But who are the stars of this show? MR PORTER, since its inception, has been more than just a shopping destination. It's a movement. A curated selection from 500+ iconic brands, a commitment to sustainable fashion, and a space where men don’t just dress—they express.
