Tom Ford has closed New York fashion week with a collection that doubled down on the singular belief that has underpinned his entire career: few things sell clothes quite like sex.
Nine months after cancelling his last show as a result of a Covid outbreak at his atelier, New York’s arch-provocateur turned a former trading floor just beyond the World Trade Center into a full-on disco assault. Hemlines were high, yet somehow the heels were even higher. Good news for fans of Ford glamorama; bad news for anyone hoping to wear the stuff.
