Mr. Ford returns: First look on the Spring 2011 collection

Following a six-year "pause", here is the first look on Tom Ford’s comeback to womenswear collection photographed by Steven Meisel for the December 2010 issue of Vogue US starring models Carolyn Murphy, Anja Rubik, Joan Smalls, Stella Tennant, Amber Valletta, Karen Elson and Edita Vilkeviciute.

“I want this to be somewhere a woman knows she can go when she wants a great jacket—not a fake expensive jacket, something that has intrinsic value," says Ford of the collection. "I don’t think fashion has to change every five minutes. I’d like these to be clothes you can wear for a long time—ten, 20 years; pass on to your daughter. Why buy vintage when you can open your own closet!”
