Intr-un remarcabil puseu de sinceritate  pe out.com Tom Ford se dezbraca atat de haine  cat si de imaginea de playboy pe care o "vinde" inca de la debutul sau in moda.
 
A pragmatic man, Ford is in menswear because it's less fickle, more reliable, than women's fashion. "I didn't want to do it the same way again," he says.  "I've done 16 collections a year and eight runway shows a year, where you constantly have to reinvent the wheel: the new shoe, the new bag, the new thing, and it's so disposable. This is a different business, it's a slower business, it's less about fashion and more about quality, so I can have silver hair and still be doing what I'm doing and have it all make sense."  Although he doesn't rule out introducing women's wear, it would have to be strictly on his terms.  "I do think someone needs to reinvent the way that women's fashion works, whether I choose to do that in two or three years or not. I'm just afraid that once I stick my toe in that pond I'll be sucked up and the next 30 years will whiz by and I'll just have a bunch of dresses hanging in a museum, and I won't have had time to have really lived."
