About this deal

You’ve always managed to kind of tap into a zeitgeist and capture a moment. How do those instincts work for you?

Yeah, I guess I was pleasantly surprised at how much work I had done. How did I actually, you know, do menswear, womenswear, build stores all over the world, create a cosmetics business? You work and you work and you work. It made me feel good. I actually have built a brand. This was something I wanted to do and I did it and achieved it. It made me feel good. How have you managed to be so productive?As the fashion industry continues to recover from the effects of COVID-19, Ford oversaw a full schedule of Spring 2022 shows during New York Fashion Week in September in his capacity as chairman of the Council of Fashion Designers of America. A fashion icon, provocative American designer Tom Ford brings us his highly anticipated second book, which takes readers through the illustrious trajectory of his billion-dollar luxury empire established in 2005. I talk about that a lot in the book. I didn’t stop drinking until well into the development of my own brand. I continued with that. In fact it probably got even worse. When I was an alcoholic, well, I guess I still am an alcoholic, but when I drank I was a highly productive alcoholic; it didn’t hinder my work until maybe right at the end. That was one of the reasons I needed to stop.

Film directors, take note: Tom Ford is interested in adding “actor” to his résumé. Just don’t ask him to play a fashion designer. I don’t sleep. I enjoy working. I don’t actually know what I would do without working. It fuels everything. I think I’m often the best when I’m working on multiple things at the same time because I’m excited about one thing that I’m doing and that spills over onto everything else because I’m happy. That excitement fuels over and I feel more creative, but it is weird because it also makes you realize how fast it all goes. I do wish I had more time to sit at a cafe and have an omelet mixte and a Coca Light you know, so it’ll be interesting to see what I do now. But honestly I’m seeing it through the lens of having just lost Richard, and now it takes on a different meaning.

About The Author

The reason why I wanted to do that at the time was, yes, Gucci and Saint Laurent existed way before I went there, but in the case of Gucci, there really were not runway shows before I went. And there really were not complete collections. I say in the book that you get to give the world your taste once. And it’s true. I made my case at Gucci and then later at Saint Laurent. So I wanted to take that with me when I left and I wanted to put my name on it. What was your mindset in 2004 when you finished the book?
