The clean design and distinctive sunglasses of Tom Ford are unmistakable, showcasing his versatile talent. Dressing numerous celebrities with his Tom Ford menswear and receiving a multitude of design awards, Tom Ford was born in 1961 in Austin, Texas and raised in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He completed his design studies in New York, majoring in architecture, although he had already taken all fashion courses in his final year. He now had a goal: to become a fashion designer like his role model, Calvin Klein, and the path would lead him to Europe. Before designing Tom Ford menswear, he gained experience in the fashion world at Chloé in Paris, Perry Ellis, and Cathy Hardwick.
In 1990, he started at Gucci in Milan as a designer for women's fashion. After rising to the position of Creative Director, he brought the struggling Gucci brand back to the forefront with his collections and image campaigns. Responsible for all product lines, he expanded Gucci's offerings to include eveningwear, sportswear, and accessories such as sunglasses, bringing new glamour to the label with his creations. After Gucci acquired Yves Saint Laurent, he designed collections for both fashion houses. Even then, Tom Ford was well on his way to revolutionizing menswear.
In 2005, the time had come for his own brand: Tom Ford. In his unmistakable design, he introduced iconic Tom Ford menswear and accessories, including his stylish sunglasses:
"I try to provide men with the best quality and service from head to toe. You can become an icon by discovering what you like and who you are. That's the difference between fashion and style. Fashion is about in and out. Style comes from yourself," said Ford when he was still the designer for his own brand.
Fashion-conscious and passionately dedicated to his craft, the Texan created timeless designs for decades that defied trends and represented maximum exclusivity – and still do today.
Tom Ford menswear is puristic, primarily using muted colours such as black, anthracite, and navy. There is a complete absence of bold branding. Only small fabric labels or embossments with the brand name can be found on Tom Ford menswear. You won't find wild patterns here either. Only tonal checks or textured patterns are a theme in Tom Ford designs. A characteristic detail on Tom Ford's bags is the XXL hardware, which gives the otherwise very simple weekenders and document cases a luxurious look. However, the focus is on the materials:
In 2009, Tom Ford made his debut in the film industry and delivered a masterpiece: His feature film "A Single Man" starring the later Oscar winner Colin Firth is counted among his achievements outside the fashion world, where he also impresses with a sense of depth and aesthetics. The 2016 drama "Nocturnal Animals" also earned Ford a Golden Globe nomination for his directing. His passion for film and a personal, transformative experience – the passing of Tom Ford's husband, fashion journalist Richard Buckley, in 2021 – led him to leave his work in the fashion world, abandon Tom Ford menswear, and devote himself completely to film. In 2023, he announced his departure from the brand and handed over his position to designer Peter Hawkings. As a close confidant and longtime collaborator of Tom Ford, Hawkings now leads the brand into the future as Creative Director.
Tom Ford sold his brand in 2022. Estée Lauder Companies has been responsible for cosmetics and fragrances since then, while the Ermenegildo Zegna Group oversees Tom Ford menswear. The popular Tom Ford sunglasses are now in the hands of the Italian Marcolin Group, specializing in the distribution and production of eyewear.
Even though the namesake Tom Ford has left the brand, Tom Ford menswear and accessories continue to embody puristic elegance, masculinity, and timelessness. Discover the popular sunglasses, suits, basics, and bags from the luxury fashion house in the online shop of BRAUN Hamburg.
