Tom Ford, always a man of style and very good taste (ever seen the fabulous movie ‘A single man‘?) made with this article an intriguing point.
I love it.
Ford says he’s tired of the cult of youth.
As the art director for a jewelry shoot he “imagined a man and a woman who had been together for a long time, faithful to each other and always incandescent with desire.”
This image as a smashing and let’s be honest, very sexy result.
“I am tired of the cult of youth. The cultural rejection of old age, the stigmatization of wrinkles, grey hair, of bodies furrowed by the years. I am fascinated by Diana Vreeland, Georgia O’Keeffe and Louise Bourgeois, women who have let time embrace them without ever cheating. Society today condemns this, me, I celebrate it. For this session of fine jewelry, I imagined a man and a woman who had been together for a long time, faithful to each other and always incandescent with desire.”
