As Tom Ford’s namesake brand embarks on another collaboration with Mr Porter, the designer’s legacy continues to thrive. Even though Ford has stepped away from his role as creative director, his iconic, luxurious style endures.
Mr Porter’s exclusive capsule collection marks a stylish, transitional chapter in the brand’s evolving narrative.
Mr Porter Tom Ford Capsule Collection
Capturing the spirit of 1960s mod subculture, the collection is a nod to Tom Ford’s storied history while serving as a precursor of the future. It features a curated range of garments dipped in monochrome palettes and crafted from English heritage fabrics—think herringbone and puppytooth check, which become the visual vocabulary of this coveted assortment.
Mr Porter notes the 10th anniversary of Jay-Z’s 2013 Tom Ford song, celebrating the designer’s substantial imprint on pop culture as its new collection underscores Ford’s formidable legacy.
Having moved from fragrances to a comprehensive men’s and women’s fashion line since its inception in 2005, Tom Ford’s brand has been a monumental success, part of which is attributed to Ford’s own life serving as a rich canvas for his designs—from the luxurious silk dressing gowns conjured during pandemic home life to the cowboy-tinged attire inspired by his days in Santa Fe.
With Ford stepping back this past April and entrusting Peter Hawking as the new creative director, this Mr Porter collection reflects the harmonious transition, ensuring the brand’s inherent philosophy is undisturbed yet ever-evolving.
