More quotes by Tom Ford
A film, since it is primarily a visual medium, should really be like a silent film. You should be able to watch something and understand what was going on and use voice when you need to communicate something you can't necessarily communicate visually. The book is the opposite. The book is an inner monologue which is beautiful.
Tom Ford
In the early Seventies, I had shoulder-length hair, bell-bottom pants, love beads and shirts that laced up at the front. But then I smartened up.
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
Maybe it's because I'm a designer, but when I am in a state of excitement, everything is so sharp and colorful and amazing, and I can look at blue and I see the yellow in it and the green in it, and the green-blues, the yellow-blues, so.
Tom Ford
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.
Tom Ford
I'm a pretty calm person. That came from living in Italy for a long time. Nothing works, nothing is on time. You have to learn to deal with it.
Tom Ford
I am one of those people who isn’t great at anything, but I’m pretty good at most things.
Tom Ford
I'm living the exact life I planned on living when I was five. My life has taken some turns and changes that I didn't anticipate, and it has brought me different things. I thought material things would bring me happiness, which they didn't. But through this, I have learned what things are important and what aren't.
Tom Ford
I like putting on a suit. I like putting on a tie.
Tom Ford
Style is very different from fashion. Once you find something that works, keep it.
Tom Ford
Fashion is, after all, a form of escapism, and in fact people are buying more special things than ever, nowadays. They deny and deny themselves, and wait and wait, and then they get sick of it and spend to make themselves feel better.
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 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
Keep your jacket buttoned. Always. It's just really flattering—it will take pounds off you.
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
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 find a bath meditative and usually prepare myself for the day in this manner.
Tom Ford
Yes, I still take my baths all day long. They're meditative. I have three a day.
Tom Ford
I am a perfectionist. This job is a total ego thing in a way. To be a designer and say, 'This is the way they should dress this is the way their homes should look this is the way the world should be.' But then, that's the goal: world domination through style.
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
