Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, News,
Tom Ford is to show at London Fashion Week for the first time.
The designer is to showcase his new collection at 6pm on Sunday, September 18, unlike last season where he opted against a formal catwalk presentation in favor of intimate appointments with key members of the press.
Other designers to show for the first time at the British Fashion Council's event include Teatum Jones - who will present their Spring/Summer 2012 collection on opening day - and Peter Jensen, who returns from a stint at New York Fashion Week.
As well as showing at London Fashion Week for the first time, Tom is also preparing for the release of his first cosmetics collection. Tom Ford Beauty's first Cosmetics Collection - a complete range of make-up, skin treatments and luxury brushes - will be on sale in selected stores from September before a widespread launch in October.

Tom Ford Promises a Functional Cosmetic Line

Fashion designer Tom Ford insists that his new beauty collection only includes essentials. Ford recently launched the cosmetics range and while some of his peers come up with a whole variety of products, Tom has kept his as simple as possible.
"I don't like B.S. and a lot of promises, and there are a lot of products out there you don't even need. My brain works in the same way whatever I do. The approach is practical, architectural and I use the same vocabulary whether I'm designing clothing or cosmetics."
Tom says creating a cosmetics line has always been something he wanted to do because he had such an interest in make-up while growing up: "I've cared about cosmetics and make-up since I was a kid. When I was 14, I had to be taken to the emergency room because the cucumber slices I had put on my eyes - to camouflage the bags - had made them swell shut. I could eat cucumbers, but my eyes were clearly allergic to them."
