Back again after six years, and its just as seductive as the first time. Tom Fords, Spring 2011 show included 100 invited guest and 32 models (whom of which he'd chosen and designed each piece with them in mind) stomping the runway, where he introduced each by name and gave detailed description of each outfit. According to Harpers Bazaar, for added amusement, he catcalled a few of them, teased Eisner for walking too quickly, told model Joan Smalls she might have turned him straight, and then told Beyoncé she definitely did.
His inspiration from the show came form an episode of "I Love Lucy". In which Lucy wants Lucy wants a covetable Don Loper dress she can't afford. But lo and behold, Loper is doing a fashion show (which he narrates himself) and asks Lucy to model.
When Ford left womenswear in 2004, he vowed not to return until he thought he had something new to say. He said it, and Im speechless. Enjoy!
