Debuting Haider Ackermann at Tom Ford is, quite frankly, the sexiest thing to happen after Tom Ford himself. Handing over the crown of his eponymous empire? Not easy. But Mr. Ford? He nailed it. “Seductive” barely scratches the surface.
For the SS26 campaign, Ackermann cranks desire up to 11. It’s tension you can almost taste, eyes that linger, and yes — it’s officially on every Valentine’s Day “treat yourself” list.
Photographed by Drew Vickers, the imagery mirrors the SS26 show: a choreographed ode to noir lust. Black stilettos worn with nothing else. Bodies tangled, stolen glances, and Susie Cave flashing skin beneath a perforated patent green leather trench. Garments are tugged. Bags are used to tease. Every frame is a masterclass in cinematic seduction, razor-sharp photography, and storytelling that whispers, “look closer.”
And yes — don’t forget to be F***ing Fabulous with Tom Ford’s ultra creamy lip color. Swipe it on and consider yourself armed.
This is more than a campaign. It’s a declaration: desire is back, and its new siren sings loud, clear, and unapologetically.
