The images of the collection have been released this week, two months after the show, after banning all photography at the show. Tom Ford explained to US Vogue: "I do not understand everyone's need to see everything online the day after a show. I don't think it ultimately serves the customer, which is the whole point of my business-not to serve journalists or the fashion system. To put something out that's going to be in a store in six months, and to see it on a starlet, ranked in US magazine next week?”
Modelling the show were Ford’s A-List friends Beyoncé, Lauren Hutton and Daphne Guinness. Ford remarked: ‘It’s about individuality. Real clothes, real women. For a fashionable woman aged 25 to 75. That’s why I literally put many of my own muses in the show. I hear them say, "God, I can’t find that anywhere!"
Ford stresses the importance of longevity in fashion: 'I don’t think fashion has to change every five minutes. I’d like these to be clothes you can wear for a long time—ten, 20 years; pass on to your daughter. Why buy vintage when you can open your own closet!'
