“If I could put [Marc Jacobs], and oh my God, let me think for a second. Tom Ford. That’s a fit. Is Tom Ford and Marc Jacobs a fit? ‘Cause they both have those muscles and ripped bodies. And they both look straight. I’d date ‘em. They’re both gorgeous. And I didn’t mean that as a generalization, and don’t you gay people get all snippy with me. I meant that as a compliment!”

–Sad circus clown Patti Stanger is totally that annoying friend that assumes that all gay people she knows are attracted to each other. Here she is running her mouth at the Heart Truth Red Dress Fashion Show trying to set up Marc Jacobs and Tom Ford, because you know, they’re both in fashion, and gay, so obviously they should date. GAH. [NYMag]

An Open Letter To Tom Ford

Oh, Tom Ford, where will you draw the line? As a fashion editor and writer, I’ve been behind you since the days of Gucci, YSL and certainly your namesake collections. And as a designer-turned-director, you have an amazing talent for understanding what we want to see, what the next big thing is and, ultimately, what will titillate us.

But it is your judgment as a guest editor that leaves us scratching our heads. Read more Keep reading »

Video Of Tom Ford’s Spring 2011 Fashion Show

The presentation of Tom Ford’s spring/summer 2011 collection was the most buzzed about fashion show during New York Fashion Week. It was a star-studded affair, but was also extremely exclusive. Only one photographer was allowed to snap photos during the show, so only the fashion elite has seen the glamorous fashions until now. See Beyonce, Chanel Iman, Carolyn Murphy, Lauren Hutton, and several other A-listers strut their stuff in a video of the show. Keep reading »

Tom Ford Wants You Naked

“You know, most people actually look better nude. We are all one harmonious colour, with a symmetry and an innate elegance. Fat women almost always look better without the constraint and lumpy pinching of clothes, all the straps and elastic squeezing and sucking.”

– Fashion designer Tom Ford confesses he spends lots of time at home naked as a jaybird. We’re not so sure how to take his plus-sized comments. Care to parse? [Contact Music] Keep reading »

Finally, Check Out Tom Ford’s Spring 2011 Collection

At long last, we get to see designer Tom Ford‘s much discussed and totally secreted away collection for spring 2011. Six years ago, Ford resigned from his dual post as creative director of Gucci and YSL, leaving ’70s-loving ladies filled with sadness. In the interim, Ford created his own brand, hawking fragrances and eye wear, opened a series of menswear retail stores, and made the critically acclaimed “A Single Man,” for which leading man Colin Firth was nominated for an Academy Award. But it wasn’t until this September that Ford returned to women’s wear with a fashion show that only a select few were allowed to see, which featured models like Beyonce and Julianne Moore, and from which photographers were barred, save one. Now, Vogue has the first images of the collection and a profile of the designer, who’s committed to helming his brand his way. [Vogue] Keep reading »

Tom Ford To Direct Another Film

Tom Ford, former Gucci designer, raging narcissist and surprisingly awesome director of “A Single Man,” has confirmed that he’ll be making another movie. We were skeptical when we heard last year that Ford was directing at all, but his debut film was actually pretty great, so we’re excited to see what he’s got for us this time. Ford’s staying tight-lipped about the project for now, but we’re sure it’ll be at least as visually stunning as “A Single Man” was and can’t wait for the release! [Elle UK] Keep reading »

Renaissance Man Tom Ford Takes Gorgeous Photos, Too

Look what I found here! Apparently, the January 2010 issue of V magazine (it’s out January 12th) will feature Tom Ford—but this time, he’s behind the lens. You know how Tom’s been getting all of this Oscar buzz for his directorial debut of “A Single Man,” the movie based on the Christopher Isherwood novel? Plot line: It’s set in 1962 Los Angeles, and it’s the story of a suicidal, gay college professor—ahem, Colin Firth—contemplating his last day on earth in the wake of the sudden death of his longtime lover. Not exactly happy-cheery, but apparently it’s a pretty damn good film. [We posted the amazing-looking trailer here. -- Editor] Anyways, back to the photo hotness—check out Julianne Moore, above and after the jump, we’ve got a seriously dapper (a hot-dapper, that is) Colin Firth, Matthew Goode and Nicolas Hoult… Keep reading »

Angelina Jolie Slips Into Some Gucci

Most think of Gucci and see interlocking G’s, horsebit hobo bags, or that red and green stripe. But there’s an entire sordid past of the Gucci family, which Tom Ford and Frida Giannini have nothing to do with – and it’s not about design. In 1995, the heir to the Gucci throne, Maurizio Gucci, had his life cut short when he was brutally shot. Behind the murder? Apparently, his wife Patrizia Reggiani set the plot for his early death. While she faced 29 years in prison, the hired assassin earned a life sentence for the murder and Patrizia’s psychic, who contacted the killer, was sent to jail for 25 years.

Sounds like a movie, no? Well, Fox 2000 thinks so, and Angelina Jolie has been approached to play the distressed wife. As for Maurizio? Leonardo DiCaprio is the first choice, but we’ll have to wait to see if that works out. Either way, a Gucci drama will be a welcome addition to the influx of fashion films on movie billboards these days. [Variety]
