Tom Ford wants Tom Ford...Surprised?

Tom Ford for GUCCI Cher Dress @Vnyc

It's always a hoot to hear about what Tom Ford is up to. Whether it's humping blow-up dolls, art-directing porno-chic perfume adverts (Estee Lauder's turning in her grave...), or designing monogram slippers in cheetah skin; he's always deliciously outre, self-promotional and absurdly well manicured. Basically, he kind of annoys us... No matter, we recognize what he did for Gucci & YSL. How he injected (and injects) sex into everything. How his best collections projected louche, smoky, powerful femininity.

SEX! SEX! SEX!

In this spirit of admiration without snark we offer an item from one of our favorite TF for Gucci shows. It is a black, pure cashmere, fringed-hem,
cut-out gown from his late 90's American-Indian/ Cher collection. It is an exceptional base for layering (Olsen style, perhaps) and, as such, allows you to go from the office to a Holiday party w/o a trip home. In fact, its so versatile, it'll stand up to a consecutive day in the office, since you're likely to have slept at someone elses house the night before.

The Chicest New Addition: JPG

Here it is, newly added to our stock: Timeless, signature JEAN PAUL GAULTIER. Timeless is the key here, because it references everything and nothing. Pin-up, goth, super-villain, superhero. Whatever, this item has legs and, like anything JPG, ups your fashion ante.

Boudoir meets the street. Frenchy chic...
In essence, it is an over-sized panel with pooling kimono sleeves connected by a 10in strip across the back. Each sleeve has its own decorative black button - a hollowed out steel globe. One of the sleeves' tips has such a button whilst the other is an eye which makes it possible to conjoin the wings themselves.

Such a badass accessory...
SOLD $138.

Booyah!
