I probably do have an obsessive personality, but striving for perfection has served me well

The Gucci woman - you know what she’s after. The Saint Laurent woman - she’s going to torture you a little bit. You might have sex, but she will drip a little hot wax on you first.

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.

I suppose, yes, I've been guilty of provocation but it's also just common sense marketing - put a bottle of scent in a woman's cleavage, or between her thighs - and men will notice.

Tom Ford
Image
I'm very direct. I don't have tantrums. I don't yell or shout. I do expect an awful lot from my staff, but no more than I expect of myself.
Tom Ford
Image
I think people who are compelled to achieve never really think they've achieved... I think the moment you get to a place when you think 'Oh I'm a fashion legend' then that's when you're no longer competitive in your field.
Tom Ford
Image
I'm living the exact life I planned on living when I was five.
Tom Ford
Image
Your connections with other people are important, our connection to the earth.

There's nothing wrong with ankles. But only if you're playing football in the park.

Image
Style for me is some one who figures out who they are. What works on them. What they feel good in and develops that. Develops their character. And the outer expression of their character is what is style.

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.

Image
I find a bath meditative and usually prepare myself for the day in this manner.
Tom Ford
Image
I worry constantly and obsess over things, but I just don't let fear stand in the way of doing something that I really want to do.

There are no right or wrong answers, There is only intuition
