Weekly Instagram Roundup: Tom Ford, Kris Van Assche, and More

This week’s complete social snapshot, distilled for your pleasure.

From the hottest celebrity parties to the regretful morning-after shots, ESSENTIAL HOMME‘s Weekly Instagram Roundup brings all of the hottest designer, model, and trendsetting pics from the week directly to you. After all, no one has time to scroll through anything but the best.

Tom Ford

Though the designer/director missed out on gold, Tom Ford‘s supporting man, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, took home Best Performance by a Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture — Drama for Nocturnal Animals at this year’s Golden Globe awards. Decked out in a look by the designer himself, the film marks the second project by Ford to hit the big screen and his first time being recognized by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for his work.

Christian Williams

Model Christian Williams captured the riotous energy that Sibling London brought to the London Fashion Week Men’s runway, the brand debuting a knitwear (what else?) line of deep navy and burning maroon. The collection itself is a fervent attempt to reclaim the union jack and reinvent a coveted English punk vibe through loud and unexpected detailing.

Ed Skrein

Unconcerned with his film Deadpool’s Golden Globes engagement in America, actor Ed Skrein returned to his homeland for London Collections Men’s and Belstaff‘s impressive Autumn/Winter 2017 showing. The brand, inspired by the British Navy for a dual offering of both men’s and women’s lines, debuted a ’60s-inspired collection with minor embellishments for a classic feel in execution and scope.

Kris Van Assche

Dior Creative Director Kris Van Assche saturated his Instagram feed with the French brand’s high-brow Summer 2017 campaign prints. Starring the likes of Rami Malek, Boy George, and A$AP Rocky, a recent favorite of the designer, the images were shot by photographer Willy Vanderperre and usher in a darker, austere vibe for the fashion house.

Disney’s Beauty and the Beast

Don’t miss the latest look at ESSENTIAL HOMME October/November 2016 cover star Luke Evans’s villainous turn in the upcoming “Beauty and the Beast” from Disney. The previous trailer shattering viewing records, this sneak peek, debuting during the 2017 Golden Globes Award telecast, features a first listen of the film’s lead, Emma Watson, singing and the pitchfork wielding villagers that Evans leads with his staple collected control.

Weekly Instagram Roundup: Luke Evans, Tom Ford, and More

This week’s complete social snapshot, distilled for your pleasure.

From the hottest celebrity parties to the regretful morning-after shots, ESSENTIAL HOMME‘s Weekly Instagram Roundup brings all of the hottest designer, model, and trendsetting pics from the week directly to you. After all, no one has time to scroll through anything but the best.

Luke Evans

ESSENTIAL HOMME October/November 2016 cover star Luke Evans shared a first look at his character, the self-obsessed Gaston, from Disney‘s upcoming “Beauty and the Beast” live action film. Not as conceited as the character he portrays, Evans was quick to shout out his trusty sidekick Le Fou as well, played by Josh Gad.

Tom Ford

Fashion icon turned in-demand Hollywood director, Tom Ford was honored this week at the 2016 Wall Street Journal Innovator Awards, following in Angelina Jolie’s footsteps to receive the coveted Film Innovator Award. His latest motion picture endeavor, “Nocturnal Animals,” is gearing up for a cutthroat Oscar race when it premieres in theaters December 9, 2016.

Opening Ceremony

The Weeknd has certainly had a very busy week – from a new Puma collaboration to announcing a massive North American Starboy tour, it’s no surprise that Opening Ceremony, the cool kid’s fashion safe haven, announced that all Starboy tour merch is now available for the masses in-store and online.

Dover Street Market New York

Autumn is proving to be a busy time for Gosha Rubchinskiy – after announcing his upcoming campaign with Topman, the Moscow artist launched his new, self-titled Eau de Toilette and accompanying perfume book at Dover Street Market New York on Thursday.

i.am+

will.i.am urged fans to get #buttonedup with the recently released i.am+ BUTTONS bluetooth headphones. Guest starring fashion heavy-hitters like Kendall Jenner, Shaun Ross, and India Love, the metallic-dream video announces a candy-coated followup to the brand’s previous Farfetch collab.

Tommy Hilfiger

After launching the nostalgic Tommy Jeans 2.0 campaign last month, American fashion staple Tommy Hilfiger announced his new book, “American Dreamer: My Life in Fashion and Business,” at a soiree of elbow-rubbing esteem. Cheesing with the one and only Naomi Campbell was only the start of the fun.

Tom Ford Makes Dramatic Return to Film with Nocturnal Animals

Video: Focus Features.

One of the buzziest films to show at TIFF this year, Nocturnal Animals is the bleak, sensually gritty drama you’ve been waiting for. Written and directed by sartorial savant Tom Ford, Nocturnal Animals, his first film since the critical darling A Single Man in 2009, follows the tumultuous world of an art gallery owner, Amy Adams, and her ex-husband, Jake Gyllenhaal, as he releases a violent thriller novel dedicated in her vengeful honor. Part art-house think piece, part gut-wrenching psycho-drama, the film is a daring choice for Ford, whose previous work he dubbed one of his most personal creative efforts – one that earned him a place in the halls of Tinseltown’s most visually enticing and aesthetically engrossing directors.

Starring alongside Adams and Gyllenhaal are a slew of glittering Hollywood names, including ESSENTIAL HOMME August/September 2015 cover star Michael Shannon as Detective Bobby Andes – an officer with thinly veiled motives, as well as film favorites Isla Fisher, Laura Linney, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson. Winner of the Grand Jury Prize at the 73rd Venice International Film Festival and based on the divisive novel “Tony and Susan” by Austin Wright, Nocturnal Animals is a Hitchcockian, psycho-sexual foray into a razor-sharp world filled to the brim with skeptical mistrust, serrated unease, and, in true Tom Ford fashion, wonderfully decadent wardrobing.

Nocturnal Animals is scheduled to release in theaters November 18, 2016.
