Tom Ford

Tom Ford was born in Austin, Texas, the United States in 1961. His fashion career gained momentum when he returned to Gucci in Milan in 1990. To make his debut, he was responsible for designing ready-to-wear collections for women. Still at Gucci, he became creative director in 1992 and then art director in 1994.

After reviving the Gucci brand, Tom Ford decided to create his own eponymous brand "Tom Ford" in 2005 and collaborated with Marcolin Group on the optical and sunglasses collections. Particular attention is paid to the choice of materials and to the (handmade) manufacture of the various frames, all of which bear the stylized "T" logo, the clear symbol of the brand.
