There is one designer who, in my books, deserves a standing ovation … and not because he’s my absolute favorite designer … I love this show, I love his creative mind, I love his clothes, I love the man!

I love that he catapulted my Colin Firth to Oscar stardom! And I love that he said “I’m definitely straight now,” after looking at Beyonce Knowles!

Yeah Tom! Come check out my curves!!

Tom Ford is finally BAAACKKK … With this 70s glam, YSL-y collection, Tom’s cocktail party/show, was reminiscent of 1950s Parisian couture shows.

It featured a bevy of models, celebs and fashion icons stomping the runway, including Rita Wilson, Julianne Moore, Lauren Hutton, Marisa Berenson, Beyonce, Rachel Feinstein and Lisa Eisner to the tune of Karen Elson’s (who also strutted the catwalk) “Pretty Babies”.

This is what I love about Tom Ford. He blends seductive, meticulous couture with a sense of kitsch and humour for a final product that is totally feminine, totally sexy, and totally wearable.

Now, if only I could afford it!
