Tom Ford

  • Sensual minimalism
  • Luxury tailoring
  • Eveningwear

Tom Ford’s work for Gucci in the 1990s gave minimal clothing a conspicuously sensual character. The Met places his fall/winter 1996–97 collection in dialogue with Halston’s 1970s glamour.

About Tom Ford

Ford used restrained silhouettes, deliberate exposure and recognizable branding to turn pared-back clothes into statements of luxury.
