  It may depend on variety.  Some won't start just yet and some are already all done and other don't flower till around Xmas.
  
  It's hard to see clearly but I would also suggest that yours in a pot which is far too sall so it will quickly get hungry and that will affect flowering.  You also need to untangle it gently and train those stems more horizontally or diagonally as that will make it healthier - better air circulation - and also more inclined to flower all up the stem and nt just at the top.
  
  Make sure it never gets thirsty and give it a weekly dose of liquid tomato feed.

  It's useful to know the variety, because pruning regimes differ, and so does care. If it's one of the larger flowering, later varieties, they need a lot more sustenance than that small pot can offer, but if it's one of the macropetala, koreanas or alpinas, they have different needs- poorer soil and drier conditions. 
  It's difficult to see from the pic, but it doesn't look like the foliage of the latter, so a bigger container is the first step, and then some suitable pruning & training in future. 

  It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
