More quotes by Tom Ford
I don't work for money any longer. I'm fortunate enough not to need to work for money, but I work for pride I work because I love to work, and so the idea that one could lose control of one's own name and that things could be produced with your name on that you were not proud of scared me.
Tom Ford
I am one of those people who isn’t great at anything, but I’m pretty good at most things.
Tom Ford
You should put on the best version of yourself when you go out in the world because that is a show of respect to the other people around you.
Tom Ford
I don't wear a lot of color. In fact, I don't actually like color on myself. I love color but it's very challenging, it's very powerful, it can overpower you. I think if my eyes were closed and someone put a red jacket on me, I would be able to feel that it was red. I don't feel great in color.
Tom Ford
Anyone with a long-term partner, anyone with a long-term lover, if that lover dies, you could easily see yourself in a situation where you couldn't see your future and you would be living entirely in the past. It's about that loss.
Tom Ford
When I was a kid, I thought I was going to be an actor. I actually studied acting when I was at NYU, and I made a lot of television commercials - that's actually how I put myself through NYU and through college.

L.A. is my American city.

What works with your skin and eyes? Use that to zero in on your wardrobe.
Tom Ford
You have to look inside yourself and you have to say, well, what am I about? Why does anyone need this? Why does anyone need a 'Tom Ford' jacket? What do I believe in?
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
Want girls to let you put your fingers in certain places? Get a manicure.
Tom Ford
There aren't many strong or charismatic candidates today, because many people can't withstand the scrutiny.
Tom Ford
You have to be passionate, you have to be engaged and you have to be contributing to the world.
Tom Ford
We have the Terminator as governor, and we had an actor as president, so why shouldn't we have a fashion designer as a senator?
Tom Ford
I think people are sick of trends changing every six months - not because we're tired of them, but just for the sake of change. There is so much junk in the world: junk TV, junk movies, all those junk magazines with the same people on the cover.
Tom Ford
My real life’s not like the fantasy Tom Ford world – with naked girls pouring perfume everywhere. It’s more staying in and watching Friends on television.
Tom Ford
I'm a natural-born boss, I have to say. I just like to be good at things. Even as a child, I was boss of my family.
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
Style is very different from fashion. Once you find something that works, keep it.
Tom Ford
I'm very aware that when my friends and I sit around over dinner these days, the conversation invariably turns to how crass the world has become. Tweeting? It's one of the silliest things ever.
Tom Ford
