Haider Ackermann steps into Tom Ford’s world with a fall-winter 2025 collection that expresses elegance through restraint. His debut is a conversation—an intimate exchange between his signature aesthetic and the brand’s storied past.
Ackermann recognizes Ford’s deep ties to nightlife but positions himself as the morning after. The remnants of hedonism remain, but the excess is stripped away.
Sensuality is the pulse of Ackermann’s vision. Androgynous figures glide down the runway in sharply tailored suits, sculptural coats, and rich leather.
A black-on-black ensemble—glossy leather jacket, second-skin gloves, and precision-cut trousers—exudes quiet dominance. Elsewhere, a billowing robe coat in muted charcoal cinches at the waist, transforming softness into strength.
This season leans into contrast. A champagne double-breasted suit shimmers under the lights, its floral lapel pin a nod to decadence. Then, a bolt of powder blue—a fluid robe lined in jet-black trim—cuts through the darkness.
Pastel suiting softens the edge, with a mint-green blazer radiating confidence. A brown overcoat slung over the arm adds a touch of nonchalance.
Tom Ford’s new era is fashion distilled to its essence. Impression over excess. Movement over embellishment. The night may have passed, but its traces remain.
