Tom Ford Kicks Off New York Fashion Week

Fashion month has arrived –as last night Tom Ford officially opened New York Fashion Week with a spring 2019 collection that exuded dark glamour. Models Gigi Hadid, Kaia Gerber and Joan Smalls lit up the runway, as A-listers like Tom Hanks, Cardi B, and Simi + Haze gazed from the front row.

The collection took us "back to basics" with a neutral palette of black, white, skin tone shades, and the palest lilac. Yet there was still an array of lace, ruching, satin suits, trendy faux croc and modest headscarves.

Ford also proved that the pointed pump shoe is definitely not dead. In fact, the pointier, the shinier, the better!

Tom Ford’s speciality since he rose to fame in the ‘90s has always been illicit gothic glamour –as this collection was a further nod to nostalgic darkness, in the best kind of way.
