Haider Ackermann Heats Up Tom Ford With His Steamy First Campaign
Haider Ackermann‘s Tom Ford era is off to a razor-sharp start! Following his celebrated Fall 2025 runway show, the designer has revealed his debut Ford campaign photographed by Mark Kean. In a distinctly minimalist style, models pose against reflective, steamy silver mirrors in an array of punchy suiting and outerwear. Unexpected color combinations—a signature of Ackermann’s, seen from his former namesake label to additional projects at Jean Paul Gaultier and Canada Goose over the years—reign, from electric green and pale pink to tonal yellow and brown, rich maroons, and punchy violet. Surrounded by blurred reflections and glints of light, the shoot is a distinct homage to Ford’s seductive aesthetic. Plus, as Tom Ford For Gucci noted on Instagram, it also subtly references the designer’s 1995 campaigns with Amber Valletta!
