Tom Ford Autumn/Winter 2019 collection

This designer has long proven himself the king of smolderingly confident luxurywear. And this collection, with its color scheme of glinting noirs and icy hues, its leather accents and sleek accessories, and its focus on ultra-dressy outerwear, reverberated through the company’s slick Milan showroom with just as much of that vaunting Ford allure.

Looks ranged from a classic chalk stripe suit with a sporty tab belt to tailored puffer ones — peaked lapels and all. Jackets in icy pastels were made from silk with the insulation inside, although trousers came minus any bulk.

As always, Ford added lots of leather, in the form of ice white jackets in cowboy or quilted motorcycle styles or a tailored black suit. He worked an arctic palette of frosty peach, pale gold and mineral tones into silk hoodies and tracksuit bottoms layered under matching tailored jackets.
