Allow me to gush.

It’s about Tom Ford

Who presented his Spring 2016 collection today via a video featuring Lady Gaga covering CHIC’s 70’s disco classic “I want your love”.  It’s ahhmaazzzing.

 

“Instead of having a traditional show this season, I wanted to think about how to present a collection in a cinematic way that was designed from its inception to be presented online,” Ford said in a statement. “I have always loved Soul Train which used to be on TV in the Seventies; as it was as much about the clothes as the music, I asked Nile Rodgers to collaborate on a new version of one of his great hits from that time, ‘I Want Your Love,’ and worked with Gaga to record the vocals. I then staged a full show in Los Angeles and filmed it with Gaga on the runway.”

 

 

If watching this doesn’t make you want to dance & romance, my friends,  give it up!

The man’s a total creative genius at whatever he does, brilliantly surfing the edge of cool and sexy year after year.  Actually decade after decade.

And he’s sweet and pretty cute to boot  😉

But this is sooo going to be my new haircut.  (of course 20 minutes later I’ll have a chip clip holding back my bangs, but whatever- I’ll know they’re there)

Cannot wait until his next film.

In the meantime, I’m going back to watch the video again and make a haircut appointment.

  4. Always ahead of his time. So enjoyed and thank you for sharing. About that hair… I’m tempted to do same!

  5. Oh he truly is one of a kind isn’t he? Fantastic show. Over the top but in a very, very refined way (my Mothers words ), Going back to choose my pieces for Fall. xo

  7. Always feel I should comment, but I don’t know why. Ah, hell, why not. Yes, I felt like dancing, then wanted to make out with my husband to that music but our new puppy is hanging all over him and he smells like wet dog. And we are in our seventies so I can only dream of moving to music the way Lady Gaga does…she looks so clean and very attractive without all that costume make up on her face…what else…oh, I love your husband, always have…watch him on O’Reilly Wednesdays . I do love your posts, and your photos…thanks for brightening my day! Mjn

  10. Gaga can’t help but be cool! I’ve seen her twice in concert and she is just amazing. She plays so many instruments and.she.can.do.anything.
    And those ankle-strap heels? I think I need some of those.

    Silly, but I just got some Tom Ford lipstick through Net a Porter and I felt so glam! *blush*

  11. Wow!! Tom Ford and Gaga!!! Loved every second of this. And the haircut!!! I want it too. Couldn’t take my eyes off of her hair.

  16. I had that haircut once! Of course, needed a perm to get my mop moving. Sigh…..
    And the models, beautiful, probably smart and dance got the moves too.

  18. my first post, love your blogs and am inspired, but not by the Tom Ford video. clothes are great, music too, but found it decadent and disturbing. sorry to be a spoil sport.

  23. Spectacular!
    Love the black & white, love the animal print … love it all.
    There’s no one like TF – pure genius.
    That haircut will be gorgeous on you, SP.

  25. OK, now this spring wear line is more my style, the deep pockets will hold all my stuff, I will be able to take my iPad EVERYWHERE!

  29. I really liked the “looser”, casual pants.for women.
    The bright colors were so much better than all black.
    But who buys these? or do they wear them??
    When I go out, even in Beverly Hills or to a concert at the Disney,
    most people are wearing casual, old comfortable clothes.

  30. I’m a Soul Train junkie from way back so this was brilliant. Most inspiring video since Vogue. Gaga looks great more natural like this too. Slim, you so have the hair for that style! Go for it! Thanks for sharing this! Kim

  31. Tim Ford does sexy, like nobody else. He’s got it. Loved the leopard with silver jacket. Pretty sure I wore that years ago!! Gaga is amazing. Brilliant to put her in the show!

  32. I think I have watched this four times already. This is seriously the coolest concept EVER. I’m ruined for all other fashions shows now!

  33. Always a treat…. Soooooo simple but sooooo sophisticated. Love the hair but
    That ain’t gonna happen with my mop. SP u r a generous gene… What would I do
    If I didn’t leave vicariously thrunu🚓👑👑👑👑👑🏮

  34. You had me laughing at holding your bangs back in a chip clip. I can relate to that. I typically leave a salon appointment with hair that feels too “in my face” so it gets pulled up into a ponytail. Relief! I will never look at a chip clip the same again. Thanks for the laugh.

  35. When I see Tom Ford in an article or on television my breath is ALWAYS taken away at his incredibly handsome, unshaven face and his oozing sex appeal. He is one of those people you can’t take your eyes off.

    Lady Gaga has been growing on me for about a year now. I think she’s fantastic.

    Great post Slim!!

  40. Ahead of the game. Fresh. Reminds me of Saint Laurent in the late 70s/early 80s. Love a bit of disco and those neon pink shoes are calling my name. Another great post Slim xo

Would love to hear from you!
