It's funny, our beauty standard has become harder and tougher because we live in a tough age. I don't think anyone wants to walk down the street and feel vulnerable. You want to walk down the street and feel like you're in control.

More quotes by Tom Ford
While fashion is exciting because it changes all the time, it is also fleeting. Film, though, is forever. In a way therefore, film is the ultimate design project.
Tom Ford
I probably do have an obsessive personality, but striving for perfection has served me well
Tom Ford
A few times in my life I've had moments of clarity where the silence drowns out the noise and I can feel rather than think.
Tom Ford
If it's not fun, I'm not going to do it.
Tom Ford
When I was a kid, I thought I was going to be an actor.
Tom Ford
I like putting on a suit. I like putting on a tie.
Tom Ford
One of the most important things is to figure out what your look is — I don't wear this black suit-white shirt combination all the time to try and be iconic — but because I'm most comfortable in this. Cary Grant never turned up in a pink jacket and hot pants and I don't feel the need to experiment when I know I like dressing this way.
Tom Ford
I want to make beautiful clothes for women and men who appreciate detail and quality. The product must be the best but this is almost secondary to the service the customer will receive.
Tom Ford
Fashion is ruthless the way every three months you have to think about everything all over again.
Tom Ford
Hips are absolutely key to every shape I do, because whatever you do at the top or bottom, you want to keep it slim and narrow on the hips. One thing is for certain: No one, man or woman, wants big hips.
Tom Ford
Your name is a funny thing. It stands for what you're about, and everything I do is really about pride.
Tom Ford
We've become a little spoiled with menswear in particular because, of course, we've come off a period in the '70s and '80s when Armani, which is very soft, dominated menswear. And we've become obsessed with comfort. I actually don't like that.
Tom Ford
But as an adult working in the fashion industry, I struggle with materialism. And I'm one of the least materialistic people that exist, because material possessions don't mean much to me. They're beautiful, I enjoy them, they can enhance your life to a certain degree, but they're ultimately not important.
Tom Ford
I live, I shop almost exclusively on the Internet. I've bought cars on the Internet. I watch television, I do everything on it. I even watch my son online.
Tom Ford
My own skin-care ritual is quite simple and straightforward I don't like a lot of fuss, surprisingly. My products are designed to make you look and feel better. I think there are a lot of men out there who want and need the same products.
Tom Ford
I haven't had any plastic surgery - despite what people think, this is my nose. I have had Restylane and Botox, but I don't think of that as plastic surgery any more.
Tom Ford
What works with your skin and eyes? Use that to zero in on your wardrobe.
Tom Ford
At home, off-duty, I wear T-shirts from Fruit of the Loom - but I have them tailored.
Tom Ford
I love to design. I am a commercial fashion designer. I always design jackets with two sleeves. I don't design jackets with three sleeves, or the layers and layers come off like little dolls from Russia. Fashion for me is a creative endeavor, but it is not art for me.
Tom Ford
Fashion is everything. Art, music, furniture design, graphic design, hair, makeup, architecture, the way cars look - all those things go together to make a moment in time, and that's what excites me.
Tom Ford
