More quotes by Tom Ford
I am one of those people who isn’t great at anything, but I’m pretty good at most things.
Tom Ford
To me, beauty and sadness are very closely linked. Truly beautiful things make me sad because I know they are going to fade. When I see a beautiful 20-year-old boy or girl-and they are breathtaking-I am filled with a kind of sadness. But maybe they are beautiful because we know they are not permanent and they are in a kind of transition.
Tom Ford
I believe that when you really want to do something, you should go ahead and do it. I mean, I feel fear, but I never let that stop me.
Tom Ford
Tweeting? It's one of the silliest things ever.
Tom Ford
I like putting on a suit. I like putting on a tie.
Tom Ford
Dressing well is a kind of good manners, if you ask me. When you're standing in a room, your effect is the same as a chair's effect, or a sculpture's. You're part of someone's view, you're part of that world, and so you should dress well. I find it's a show of respect to try to put on your best face and look as good as you can.
Tom Ford
I think you should suffer sometimes to be attractive and beautiful, so I cut the clothes very slim because I like to feel the clothes on my body.
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
I find I can get so much done between midnight and 4 a.m. Everything is quiet, no one is disturbing me, and if I go to bed then, I just lie awake thinking of ideas. They are very creative hours for me. One night a week I crash out, though.
Tom Ford
It's really never fair to judge people because none of us know what's going on inside anyone else's head.
Tom Ford
Women are objectified in our culture. And more and more, it takes a great deal of confidence, especially as a woman, to break the mold. You know, you're afraid that you're going to covered in a magazine as a fashion don't. That's why you see all these girls on the red carpet looking the same.
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
In my adult life I've understood that if I put an enormous amount of love and honesty into something, usually that shows in the end.
Tom Ford
The U.S. used to be perceived as the moral leader of the world, and we have absolutely lost that.
Tom Ford
Part of fashion is newness. It's got to be a new combination of elements that's shocking-stunning-beautiful all at the same time. But it doesn't have any emotion.
Tom Ford
I am not someone who likes cocktail parties or large dinner parties, but I have to attend them often. I much prefer very small dinners with close friends.
Tom Ford
Banking types should take their cue from Gordon Gekko. Or pick the best-looking banker in their firm and copy him.
Tom Ford
I interview these people all the time who come to my office and say, I want to be a fashion designer. I tell them where they should start, and they say, I don't want to do that. I don't want to get anyone coffee. Don't they know it is great to get people coffee?
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
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.
