WEAR IT TO: Your debut mission as a freshly-minted FBI agent tasked with going undercover to seduce a corrupt promoter running a drug ring out of Meatpacking’s Up & Down nightclub.
FIRST READ: For his latest collection, Ford stuck mostly to an ensemble of pencil midi skirts with lace detailing, athletic tanks and leather jackets or sportif bombers, in a throwback to the bossy power dressing of the 90’s supermodel era. Also key were the array of black cocktail dresses in similar silhouettes, while fringed accents added a touch of Gatsby-glamor to column dresses in white and aubergine.
BEST LOOK: A white blazer worn over a v-neck sheer lace top, paired with a matching skirt and black heels.
EYE-CATCHING ACCENTS: Black and nude headscarves worn throughout, ostrich feather coats and stoles styled over vampy cocktail frocks, faux crocodile on edgy jackets, skirts and bags, and Mary Jane pumps in blue, lavender and champagne.
