See Haider Ackermann's Debut Collection at Tom Ford
For his first show at Tom Ford, Haider Ackermann fused desire, lightness, and modern beauty. The Fall/Winter 2025 collection stunned Paris Fashion Week.
The first Tom Ford show by Haider Ackermann for the Fall/Winter 2025 season was like a subtle dance between two worlds, where night and day, desire and beauty meet and intertwine.
Ackermann, true to his own design language, immersed himself in the legacy of Tom Ford, a world where seduction and attraction are at the heart of each creation. Inspired by the intensity of the night, the artistic director was able to reinterpret the codes of the legendary American designer by infusing a touch of lightness and sensuality, symbolized by joyful colors and pastel tones that illuminate the silhouettes—but also the beauty looks—while preserving the depth of neutrals like blacks and grays.
The show took place in a deliberately mysterious atmosphere, between refined elegance and raw sensuality, during Paris Fashion Week. On the catwalk, vertical lines and architectural shapes embraced the body with a rare simplicity. The models, characterized by an androgynous allure, embodied this vision of modern beauty, where the purity of the clothes is mixed with the promise of a discreet but striking seduction. The show ended with a feeling of desire and contemplation, like a morning after, where only an imprint of emotions exists, in addition to a lipstick stain that bears the traces of a shared passion. The collection's appeal is undeniable.
