TFG Exclusive: Book of the Month

Okay, okay, so we're really late for October's book of the month. Work, family, and wedding planning have been keeping me pretty busy, but that won't stop me from sharing with our readers October's book of the month, Tom Ford. The coffee-table book is a complete catalogue of Ford's design work for both Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent from 1994 to 2004 and captures the brilliance of one of the masters in brand development.

It chronicles not only Ford's clothing and accessories designs for both houses, but also explores Ford's grand vision for the complete design of a brand, including architecture, store design, and advertising. Tom Ford features more than 200 photographs by Richard Avedon, Mario Testino, Steven Meisel, Helmut Newton, Herb Ritts, Terry Richardson, Craig McDean, Todd Eberle, and numerous other photographers. Many of the images were previously unpublished. The book was created in collaboration with Tom Ford himself and every page reflects his exceptional taste. I just purchased a copy last week and am truly obsessed with the visuals. If you are in the habit of collecting coffee-table books like me, Tom Ford is a must.
