Tom Ford






Thomas Carlyle Ford was born on August 27, 1961 in Austin, Texas. He attended Parsons school of design but only studied fashion during is final year. His first real job in fashion was with Cathy Hardwick as an assistant designer. He became famous for being the creative director of Gucci and he basically reinvented the label with his style in designing. His suits were chosen for Daniel Craig for the Quantum of solace movie. Then he opened up a production company and directed his very first movie called a single man which debuted in 2009 at Venice film festival. The movie did have big actors like Colin firth and Julianne Moore and it ended up being a good movie. He now has his own label which  includes accessories as well and  is widely recognized and has made a name for himself in the fashion industry.
