About Tom Ford

Tom Ford is a fashion designer who founded his eponymous brand Tom Ford International in 2005.

He sold his stake in the company, plus a separate fragrance and cosmetics business, to Estée Lauder in a $2.8 billion deal in November 2022.

The deal saw Ford step down as CEO, but he remained the creative visionary of the company until the end of 2023.

Ford was the creative director of Gucci from 1994 to 2005, helping revitalize the brand and grow its revenues twelvefold to $3 billion.

Ford also has a film production company, Fade to Black, that has won several Academy Award and Golden Globe nominations for its films.
