Dressed to kill... Tom Ford at Mr.Porter

The other day I received a newsletter from Mr.Porter.com about what new arrivals they had to their website that always has the best and coolest names in men's fashion such as Alexander McQueen, of course Tom Ford, Gucci, The Kingsman Collection from the film Kingsman, Acne Studios, Givenchy, Dolce and Gabbana etc but they also do the best in men's shoes, fragrance, accessories, gifts etc...and to me men's fashion is so much cooler than women's and now that I think about it women's fashion is nowadays inspired or it does tend to take a leaf out of men's style, and it now has become a fashion trend that some celebrities have been seen wearing out such as Emma Watson and journalists calling it "Boy Meets Girl" style.

And I have to say that even I when I'm out and about or browsing on the internet am inspired by men's style and the fact that half my wardrobe is filled with clothes from one of my favourite clothes brand All Saints.

Anyhew...I digress Tom Ford has now arrived at this stylish men's clothing and accessory website that is great for getting any ideas for any upcoming events such as Father's Day, birthdays, Christmas's etc, and I have to say that I know that he already designs the suits for 007 but these brilliantly designed classic and modern styles of clothes using Italian craftsmanship and premium materials look really WOW! like this Tom Ford Navy Slim Velvet Tuxedo Jacket £2,030,:

very smart and James Bond-esque. Some pieces of this collection from Tom Ford such as the Tom Ford Woven Silk and Wool Blend Tie £155 does look a bit like the Anthony Sinclair Grenadine Neck ties which are made of rare Grenadine silk that according to Anthony Sinclair's website "...is often mistaken as a knitted rather than woven material..." look almost as if they have been designed specifically for James Bond as these pieces of clothes when you put them altogether has somewhat of the classic Sean Connery 007 look to it, but with a modern refreshed look to it.

(The Tom Ford Slim-Fit Houndstooth Wool Blazer £2,380, The Tom Ford Slim-Fit Houndstooth Wool Trousers £730)

And this definitely will give any 007 fan the look like they're going to the Casino Royale for a high stakes poker game, (team this black Slim-Fit Mohair and Wool-Blend Tuxedo £3,280 with the below Pleated Cotton Tuxedo Shirt £450 and Silk-Satin Cummbund £285) :

Or you could team this up with Tom Ford's White Slim-Fit Bar Cotton Shirt £330

If these looks are not to your taste this collection also does fantastic modern looks such as trainers, brogues, loafers, cashmere sweaters and accessories such as wallets and leather bracelets but if you want to take a look at the full collection here is the link:

I know that these items are a tad on the expensive side, and this collection doesn't exactly fit into many people's budgets but this collection of Tom Ford does certainly deliver on beautifully designed quality pieces of clothes and accessories that definitely give the WOW! factor both in terms of refreshing the classic men's tailored fit design style and bringing it bang up to date and current...,-which now that I think about it is the 'in' thing these days, as there are films out there today such as "X:MEN: First Class", "X:MEN: Days Of Future Past", these films in particular are more stylised and are more focused on a particular period in time and thus use fashion such as this collection which easily refreshes classic looks like Tom Ford's Slim-Fit Cashmere Sweater £790 and the Tom Ford Fine Knit Cashmere and Silk Blend Rollneck Sweater £860:

 as well as many other things that makes these films look and feel like they are 'back in time' or 'in the future' but cool and bang up to date like the rollneck definitely has the air of something that Michael Fassbender would wear in "Haywire", this film again is very stylised as well as the new Bond films such as "SPECTRE", "Quantum Of Solace" and "Casino Royale" which are again stylised and again bang up to date and really does bring the classic tailored look back into fashion,- and also in terms of present giving.
