Creative director, Peter Hawkings, continues to push boundaries with his latest collection for TOM FORD. Appointed in April of 2023, Hawkings’ Resort 2025 collection is a modern ode to beauty, elegance, and empowered femininity through the lens of TOM FORD. Dress to impress, the TOM FORD woman is more confident and alluring than ever before.
Resort 2025: A Vision of Strength and Seduction
A streamlined blend of contrasts, the TOM FORD woman is deeply rooted in the 60s modernism and 90s edgy sleekness, silhouettes revive a modern update with exaggerated platform heels, powdery pantones, and a bit of sparkle. Luxurious knee-high gladiator sandals, sheer overlay dresses, patent miniskirts, and even a little black dress welcome emblematic new forms and emerge as a force with her gaze shielded by oversized sunglasses.
She commands attention, whether swathed in flowing, floor-length caftans or strutting in thigh-grazing trapeze dresses that accentuate the female form. The color palette evolves from textured chalk and black to deep tones of magenta, degradé jewel pink and powder pink, azure blue, jade, and emerald. Metal mesh sheath dresses add a bold, slinky appeal, while the look remains graphic and erotic, channeling the confidence of Veruschka in a Rubartelli picture
Wardrobing Differently
The genius of this collection lies in its execution. Refined details such as the sartorial approach, lends the collection desirability and vision. Billowing silhouettes of light materials are juxtaposed with supple suedes and luxurious TOM FORD accessories. The result is a polished look as part of a compelling visual narrative. Hawkings isn’t designing statement pieces; he’s designing a statement lifestyle filled with reinvigorated classic designs.
Tailoring Redefined
Renowned for precision tailoring and the finest fabrics, Spring 2025 continues the brand’s legacy for impeccable tailoring, Slim suits with flared trousers evoke a sense of '70s nostalgia while remaining firmly rooted in contemporary style. Frilly blouses add a touch of romance to the sharp lines, creating an irresistible meeting of masculine and feminine elements.
The Art of Materiality in the Modern Age
With the utmost attention to quality, Resort 2025 features sumptuous materials such as lurex-infused tailoring wool for a subtle shimmer, silk georgette that cascades like water, and patent leather that elegantly catches light. The inclusion of "wet look" silk adds an element of sensuality that is both daring and sophisticated.
Peter Hawkings' Resort 2025 collection for TOM FORD is a triumph of design, craftsmanship, and vision for the fashion industry. It celebrates the multifaceted nature of femininity and offers a wardrobe that is tantalizing in design—as provocative as it is elegant. Once again, TOM FORD is setting the standard through wearable luxury, empowering beauty, and his trademark: enchanting glamour.
