Tom Ford Net Worth $70 Million

As an 11 year-old boy, Tom moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico with his parents,  and there attended St. Michael’s High School and then Bard College at Simon’s Rock. However, college years were apparently not the greatest, as he dropped out after a short time, becoming involved in advertising commercials, but then attended The New School’s university, and studied interior architecture there. However, after his architectural studies Tom Ford decided to search for a job in the fashion industry, and tried to increase his net worth while working as a fashion assistant for the famous Cathy Hardwick – an American designer and writer – for whom he worked for two years. Then Ford moved to work with clothing design and manufacturer Perry Ellis, with whom he again stayed for two years, however, he wanted wider experience, and as Gucci were looking for inspiration at this time, in 1990 they hired Ford as the chief women’s ready-to-wear designer, and so Ford moved to Milan, where he significantly increased his reputation and net worth. After some time working diligently, Tom was able not only to increase his net worth, but also became one of the most important personalities in the company – he worked on advertising, and at the same time was also working as a creative director for Gucci, with considerable success.

In 2004, Ford’s net worth was already high enough that he was able to leave Gucci and start his own business, launching a line of self-titled menswear, but also successfully expanding to include women’s wear, which was taken up by many celebrities, including Michelle Obama, Jennifer Lopez, Gwyneth Paltrow and Beyonce. He himself was named in the “50 Best Dressed Over 50s” by the Guardian in 2013.

In 2005, Ford launched his film production company, and  eventually began to work on his movie “A Single Man”, which when released in 2009 received several nominations both for the film and individuals, including for an Oscar. Tom Ford’s only other film to date – “Nocturnal Animals” was released in late 2016, to critical approval, and winning the Grand Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival.

Talking about his personal life, already in college years Ford realized that he was gay, and is now married to Richard Buckley. Furthermore, the couple have a son Alexander John Buckley Ford. They split their time between residences in London, Los Angeles and Santa Fe, having also previously lived in Italy.
