Fashioning the Future?

As we all know we are back in one of our favourite times of the season, where New York, London, Milan and Paris become the hosts to fashion week where the worlds best designers showcase their latest collection for the coming season! Then usually the high street studies the images and shows and immediately picks out it's hottest trends and creates copycat versions at a fraction of the price! But is all this about to change?

Tom Ford ( yes i know another blog about him) is a fashion genius, and has accomplished a lot on his time, but has he just took a step into the future, pushing the industry more more! As usual he plans a show, but this time he invites no one!

Imagine being a fashion editor, sitting at your desk and then the phone rings, finally here's your invitation, be at the store by 6.30 to see the show! If you were 1 of the lucky 100 you wouldn't have missed this for the world, especially as Beyonce was one of the confirmed models! As you can tell this show was top secret and images have not and WILL not be released until the collection goes on sale next year. Phones were to be left outside by all guests and no press was invited, just one in house photographer shot the show. However head shots of all the models have been released, and not the conventional models we are used to!






Tom Ford's collection can not be recreated this year, and isn't that the way fashion should be? This is one event many seriously missed out on, and I am sure the industry greatly anticipates the pictures of Beyonce on the runway!
