Haider Ackermann - Designer, Creative Director of Canada Goose & Tom Ford

No I agree, sorry if what I wrote even make you feel like I'm some etiquette police in any kinda way. It's all good in the hood, I enjoy many of your posts very much.
I work on the creative side and I feel like right now those are the people I want to lift in some capacity hence my post. But I feel bad now, not my intent to ruin anyone's fun.
no worries it's just a conversation no harm done :-) it only helps me articulate better my thoughts always.

KARL :
I think she was a mean person, that she could be horrible to all her friends and that she ended up very much alone. But that happens to everyone, not just to fashion designers. It's more a question of personality than a profession. You know, it's easy for the fashion world to say that it's because of the profession.
But I think it's a simple question of personality. Look at other examples. Marlena Dietrich was very much alone as well.
But if people who are mean to their friends end up all alone, we're not going to cry over them, are we?

A cruel but realistic analysis coming from the man (Karl )who inherited the Chanel mantle.
But those who worked with her up to the end do not refute it.
Talent does not excuse the tyranny which Coco Chanel exerted over her subordinates up to the very last days.
 
I will be in NYC this week and I am super excited see Haider's Tom Ford in real and try on. I hope to buy some pieces if they have the right sizes for me. I am particularly interested in the coats and leather pieces. I haven't purchased from Tom Ford in a long time and Haider has me back.
 
Tom Ford mens shoes are still cream of the crop. Filler sneakers but some truly gorgeous laceup slip on and boot styles. The TF silhouette has been the same since inception and its still gorgeous.

I hope the coats and leathers fit you supremely, Salvatore: Men and fashion will come and go, but these Tom Ford staples will remain with you for the rest of your life. No exaggeration.

Thank you dear Phuel ! ❤️ Yes, I plan to keep whatever I buy for the long haul.

Have a look at the womenswear!
I’m really tempted to order via NAP but I want to experience the whole thing in stores (I like to try many things when I shop)…

Not having a Parisian store is really a professional fault at this point. Having to go to either London or Milan to have access to Tom Ford womenswear is frustrating.

Resort is launching around this time for a lot of brands so you may have a glimpse of it too in NYC.

I'm going to look at womenswear for you my dear and DM you of course lol
Yes, I have to try it on and touch and feel. It is really difficult for me to buy a lot of things online - from clothes to some electronics and further - because I cannot get a good sense of it that way.

The Paris shop is really not good and I think they need to move somewhere else. If Jacquemus can be on Ave Montaigne, so can Tom Ford. Perhaps they need to move to the 7th/6th convergence area, though. I hope Haider will push for a new boutique.

Thanks ahaha!
It’s weird but I don’t have an issue buying online. There are brands like N21, Francesco Russo or even Victoria Beckham that don’t have a full retail presence in Paris so I order online. So far my PP pieces were bought online. But those are brands that I tried in stores before or I’m familiar with the sizing (like PP).

The cut of Tom Ford will be different with Haider. For that alone, I need to experience that irl and the offer online is never representative of the good things we can find in stores.

@yslforever mentioned the area near the Hotel Costes, around Castiglione as the perfect area for a brand like Tom Ford.

They opened a beauty store at Rue Cambon recently apparently.

Wherever they decide to go: we need a Parisian store!

We deserve a proper Parisian store !! That would be a good area indeed for Tom Ford, too. I am just being selfish as I hate going to Rive Droit, but since it is near Place Vendôme I will make exceptions. 😂

Yes, I need to try on Haider's pieces. I have actually never tried a Haider cut in my life so I am wondering how it will fit. Trousers and I run into issues because let's just say I never miss leg day in the gym ... lol 😌.
 
I just saw the images of the resort 2026! Chic supreme!
