Tom Ford...... Spring 2019 NYFW


Instagrammers, Influencers, fawners, label whores, millennial know nothings and of course our beloved fashion so called media …. Was it as good as sex? If it was then god only knows you have never had good sex in your life. This was unquestionably a yawn worthy presentation of clothes… not fabulous clothes, not costumey clothes, not work clothes but just plain clothes. I guess there was or will be some blah blah blah and why most of the heads were wrapped tightly in scarves or was it the Tom Ford version of a hijab… actually who cares?

Amazing to me that with the unlimited resources this man has at his fingertips and his penchant for either “borrowing” or showing trash and flash clothes, this season he chose to show one of the most coma inducing of collections. You know it’s like you nod out during a movie but wake up as if you missed nothing….tah dah!

Croc jackets are nothing new and then there is the old standbys leopard and fringe which are used weakly. Nude and menopausal shades thereof are never quite right on anyone and other than those gowns where exactly are most of these clothes going to be worn. There are some passable plausible dresses and looks but surely nothing like the laudatory treatment that the collection will receive.

He did keep true to himself in the silhouette (trashy tight) which is fine but other than that was there anything on that runway that made you ooh or aaah or covet? If this is the best we have to start off NYFW then holy shit, what a month this is gonna be.

By the way, what were those odd square things that appeared at the waists and bust lines of many pieces and one last thing when did velvet become a spring fabric and lastly, except for a few pieces would you ever know this was spring?

PS... Tom, no one needs another Temptations tuxedo?
