At Paris Fashion Week, new designers brought new energy to Tom Ford, Dries Van Noten and Givenchy.

Ahead of Sarah Burton and Haider Ackermann’s much-anticipated debut shows this week, we look at what’s at stake for the brands as they enter a new creative era.

One evening in late January, Haider Ackermann, the new designer at Tom Ford, was tucked into a velvet banquette at La Reserve, the discreet, tryst-worthy hotel not far from the Élysée Palace in Paris. He was doing his best impression of Tom Ford, the man.

Chalamet's next project, Marty Supreme, is scheduled hit theaters in December. And given that film's tailoring-heavy wardrobe, we're bound to see even more of Timmy sporting Ackermann's Tom Ford in 2025. That's a W any way you slice it.

The house of Ford is all about vanity,” said Ackermann after his hormonal show, which mused on American Psycho and mornings after.

“With his September 2010 launch of his womenswear in New York, Tom Ford revolutionized presentation formats, where he favored intimacy over spectacle. His belief was that luxury is about experience, not excess—a philosophy that’s shaping my own approach.

The final leg of fashion month is here, with highly anticipated debuts, too.
