Tom Ford’s new 1 hour ‘Visionaries serie documentary’ will premiere on Oprah’s OWN channel come June 24.
Racked has the exclusive:
Visionaries: Tom Ford changes things entirely—Ford opens up to the audience in a way that we never imagined possible, revealing his own struggles with depression, mid-life crisis, and professional reinvention. He also reveals that he takes between three and five baths a day, a fact which, somehow, makes us really like him.
Here are a few Tom Ford’s quotes from the article:
On his unbuttoned shirt:
“I wear my shirts open because ties give me a headache,” “I can only wear them for a few hours and then I start to get a migraine.”
On the fashion industry:
“I have, sometimes, mixed feelings about what we do because we convince people they’re not perfect enough,” “We promote materialism, which is ultimately not the thing that brings you happiness in the world”
“We don’t own anything in our lives,” Ford says, “we don’t own anything in the world. [I think of it as] a bunch of stuff I’m swimming through in this life to go from here to wherever I’m going afterwards… The most important things in life are your connections to other people.”
On death:
“I could absolutely die tomorrow—I would not care,” Ford says. “I feel like I’ve lived, I feel like I’ve had a great life. There are lots of things I’d like to do, I don’t want to die, but I’m comfortable enough with having lived and having experiences that death does not freak me out at all.”
