After a decade of designing for several international luxury fashion houses, Tom Ford launched his own eponymous line of optical frames, sunglasses and beauty in 2005. The following year, he debuted menswear, and in 2010, women's ready-to-wear, and later fragrance and beauty—now under the creative leadership of Haider Ackermann. His sleek, tailored aesthetic has since catapulted him to mega-brand status.
