More quotes by Tom Ford
We have to have genius creative thoughts precisely four times a year and on exact dates. I actually write them on my calendar. I write, 'Friday, Nov. 8. Three o'clock. Have a genius creative idea.'
Tom Ford
When the youth of America gets together, amazing things happen.
Tom Ford
I just want to make beautiful, glamorous clothes.
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
When I come home I actually take off all my clothes, and I wear no clothes until I leave. I eat naked. I do everything completely naked.
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
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.
Tom Ford
As a fashion designer, I was always aware that I was not an artist, because I was creating something that was made to be sold, marketed, used, and ultimately discarded.
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
Moving fashion used to be one of my chief goals. It's not necessarily any more. Fashion needs to change when life changes. You only need to move fashion forward when there's a reason to move fashion forward.
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
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
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
When I was a kid, I thought I was going to be an actor.
Tom Ford
Perfection is almost an illness with me, but sometimes I have moments where everything is absolutely clear and you can feel, rather than think.
Tom Ford
L.A. is my American city.
Tom Ford
British men are peacocks. You see a lot more style on the streets here than you see anywhere else, on every level.
Tom Ford
I think that right now we're in a very hard moment and off-putting. I mean, look at shoes today - women's shoes. They couldn't possibly get any higher and meaner and sharper. But then again, you go and watch most films today, they're violent and we're living in a world that is, at the moment, quite hard.
Tom Ford
Just because one is spiritual doesn't mean that one doesn't like crocodile, cashmere. We live in a material world. We still experience these things. It doesn't mean to completely disregard them.
Tom Ford
Most everyone now personally knows someone who is openly homosexual.
