He directed the Oscar-winning film ‘A Single Man’, transformed Gucci into the modern, luxury label it is today, and is said to have ‘put the glamour back into fashion’. Now, trend mogul Tom Ford is channelling his fashion talents into his own cosmetics brand.
Mr Ford’s upcoming AW12 cosmetics collection for luxury department store Harrods showcases strong hues in plum and turquoise, ranging from a deep violet nail lacquer, to an Azure-inspired eye-shadow pallet.
The Tom Ford brand is built around the idea that any woman can transform herself with the right cosmetics. Glamour does not have to be reserved for the silver screen – it can be recreated by anyone with the right combination of care, time, make-up, skin-care and fragrance.
The new AW12 collection consists of 10 luxury statement pieces that, although pricey, are designed to look beautiful both on, and on the dressing table.
- 2 X Colour Quad – The Tom Ford Colour Quad comes in two different colour schemes – four subtle variants of maroon and four stunning Mediterranean-inspired turquoises. Each eye-shadow can either be worn alone or mixed with water for a long-lasting wet effect. You can buy yours for £62 per palette.
- Lip Colour – Brighten up a bleak winter with vibrant raspberry lips. Playful and chic, this on-trend Lip Colour is encased in a beautiful black holder edged with gold and embossed with the brand’s modern ‘TF’ logo. Treat yourself for £35.
- Lip and Cheek Stain – For a pop of youthful colour wherever you are, try the lip and cheek stain in one, which comes in the same sleek packaging as the Tom Ford Lip Colour and fits discretely into any evening bag. The Lip and Cheek Stain is a hefty £36 – but for two top-end products in one, no-one’s complaining.
- Cheek Colour – This bright pink blusher comes in a square compact with a mirror for ease of application. You can buy it for £45.
- 2 X Nail Lacquer – Choose from a chocolate brown shade or an intense plum for a classic but edgy look that suits any occasion. The Nail Lacquers are £25 each.
- Plum Absolute for Eyes – A great option for bright, bold eyes – this product is designed to be extra intense and long-lasting. At £25 a pot, we’d hope so.
- Eye Defining Pencil – A perfect point for precise eyes, this £25 pencil gives you the freedom to create anything from a smoky-eyed seductive look, to classic, subtle definition.
- Ultra Shine Lip Gloss – Finish off your glamorous look with a slick of lip shine – this £32 Lip Gloss adds a youthful glow to a perfectly on-trend Autumn/Winter look.
