The world of male high fashion is dominated by Tom Ford's Fall 2018 and the debut of its exquisite cuts, sleek tailoring and sophisticated ensembles. Trying to establish a ingenious style connection between the older gentleman and the millennial fashion protegee, the collection embodies bold snakeskin textures and sheep skin waist jackets, silky pink suits and vibrant color display throughout. The fluid glossy forms and impeccably formfitting designs ensure a lean silhouette for the old-fashioned gentleman and style-minded youth.
In his male high fashion outfit curation, Tom Ford indirectly sets forth his own interpretation of masculinity. The Fall 2018 show suggests that 'soft', 'glossy' and 'elegant' aren't synonyms to feminine, as well as highlights "the pleasure to be found in reveling in one's own as much as looking at someone else's."
