a peep into tom's luxurious world
“dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman.” -- mdm coco chanel.
tom ford, who was responsible for colin firth's near oscar victory in a single man a few years ago (his directorial debut, mind you), not to mention the british actor's flawless wardrobe and debonair looks, returned to his roots and wowed the fashion universe with his latest women's wear collection.
"maximalism" (as opposed to his signature minimalist but elegant designs?), "unapologetic" (as if he owes the solar system an apology for being a maestro in his world?) were some of the words fashion journalists and bloggers used to describe mr. ford's autumn/winter two thousand thirteen collection shown at the recently concluded london fashion week to loud ohhs and ahhs from the star studded audience that included vogue editor anna wintour and singer justin timberlake.
while i don't have the credentials and the necessary tool to describe his latest work of art, only one word popped into my head when i saw the pictures: "opulent!"
(i wanted to say "colourful", "lyrical", "elegant", "stunning", but they seemed so moronic. chos.)
here are some of my favourites:
i can already picture hollywood goddesses cate blanchett, gwyneth paltrow and jessica chastain on some of these gorgeous clothes come oscar night.
