A lot of people think a high armhole is restrictive, but it gives you total movement because it's cut right up to your arm.

More quotes by Tom Ford
What works with your skin and eyes? Use that to zero in on your wardrobe.
Tom Ford
Both film and fashion are businesses where the audience doesn't feel or see the work that goes on behind the scenes.
Tom Ford
Yes, I still take my baths all day long. They're meditative. I have three a day.
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
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'm a perfectionist, to the point of insanity.
Tom Ford
Dressing effectively is a kind of excellent manners.
Tom Ford
I believe in living life the way that you want to live it every day, and if you do that, you don't really need to have New Year's resolutions.
Tom Ford
We've become a little spoiled with menswear in particular because, of course, we've come off a period in the '70s and '80s when Armani, which is very soft, dominated menswear. And we've become obsessed with comfort. I actually don't like that.
Tom Ford
France? I don't want to be anti-French but there isn't a more unattractive group of people on the streets.
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
It's not a feminizing product it's designed to make your skin look better.
Tom Ford
I don't work for money any longer. I work for pride.
Tom Ford
It's really about putting that sort of quality and beauty back into our life.
Tom Ford
Film is an incredible way to express yourself and your vision, as is fashion, but you have to make sure [to] be confident and honest and true to yourself and say something that means something, because that is really the point of any art.
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
I hate going out for lunch during a workday because it slows down my pace and ruins my rhythm. I prefer to eat at my desk. Actually, I wander around the design studio with a plate in my hand as I dine on, for example, salmon sashimi and a salad of tomatoes and mozzarella. I often have a bit of dark chocolate after lunch.
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
I was bullied every day at school because I carried a briefcase. I could have left it at home. But I thought it looked great! I didn't understand why anyone else didn't think so.
Tom Ford
My grandmother was probably the first person who I thought was beautiful. She was incredibly stylish, she had big hair, big cars. I was probably 3 years old, but she was like a cartoon character. She'd swoop into our lives with presents and boxes, and she always smelled great and looked great.
