Tom Ford makes like Beyoncé for his Spring 2014 ad campaign
There are things in this world that you can count on. A good Kanye rant, Rihanna getting high and Tom Ford being Tom Ford. We can always count on him for a serious glamour injection, even in the midst of a polar vortex.
The shots for his upcoming Spring 2014 advertising campaign have just been released and as per usual, Ford strikes gold. At first glance, the shoot is a little reminiscent of late night dance party à la Chippendale’s, but once you get past that it’s smooth sailing. In line with his signature opulent throwbacks, the collection features textured body-con, leather, tailored power suits and disco ball shimmering minis. On the runway in London, models were practically dripping in sex and their dresses, done in slashed leather and strips of silk, are cheeky but strategically done. Classy never trashy.
The campaign features all-American model, Esther Heech, fresh from the hay-strewn Chanel runway in Dallas. On the more masculine side of things, Ford cast two relatively unknown, yet altogether worthy, male models Conrad Bromfield and Carlos Peters. Remember those names, kids.
But the telltale sign that the collection is sure to be a hit? One word: Beyoncé. Queen Bey herself wore the cracked-mirror finish dress with matching thigh high boots to her album release party in New York last month and she looked fierce. Her simple blow-out and natural make up complement the dramatic outfit, avoiding fashion overkill. It seems Bey took Jay Z’s lyrics from his song named after the designer to heart. All hail.
