TOM FORD Sunglasses

Paparazzi-worthy glamour? Yes, it is achievable and you don’t have to sell your soul shell out for a top stylist to get it. Instead, look to Tom Ford sunglasses (for him as well as her).
A luxurious updating of classic designs, these directional shades from the King of Sexiness have been made to exceptional standards with a sleek feel and pin-sharp finish. An essential for confident, modern cool on bright days in the city.

New Eyewear from TOM FORD

Just like good shoes and a great bag, eyeglasses are an excellent way to give your face a big lift and rev up your style. Discover your own movie star allure, hide from the sun, look cooler than you can imagine, and -- for the ladies -- forget about wearing eye makeup behind one of these statement-making sunnies and specs from Tom Ford.

Extravagant with a 60s/70s retro appeal, the oversized Tom Ford “Nico” spells out “sex appeal” all over.
Tom Ford’s latest eyewear campaign stars model Carolyn Murphy and actor Nicholas Hoult (the nerdy 12-year-old from “About A Boy”, now all grown up!).
(Love the tan line.)


Vintage continues to be a major theme in fashion and having directed his first film, the much-praised period-piece “A Single Man”, retro style eyewear is clearly top of mind for Tom Ford.
Perhaps the designer-director was also rather inspired by the mid-20th century heavy black plastic rims worn by the film’s leading man Colin Firth. (Apparently Firth found the vintage glasses at the bottom of a box of props and convinced Ford to let him wear them.)
While Ford’s spectacles collection may be vintage-inspired, the styles are definitely modern with a distinct Tom Ford twist. The attention to detail in each frame, such as the metal inlays in the temple tips that appear to be a letter “T”, and the quality workmanship make these bookish but stylish beauties perfect for showing off your true Clark Kent colours.
(Tom Ford spectacles are unisex.

TOM FORD 'Peter' Aviator Sunglasses (Unisex)

*Fair warning: 'Nuvertising' ahead!

The most influential person in fashion in recent years? Tom Ford, easily.
From his single-handed reinvention of Gucci into a US$4 billion empire to his innovative revitalisation of YSL Rive Gauche, Tom Ford is a man of many accomplishments. Always sleek, immaculate & composed, the charismatic Ford has, since partin
g ways with the Gucci group, remade himself with his own successful fashion label (&, more recently, with his provocative approach to the aesthetics of cinema, as director of the stylish & ravely reviewed 'A Single Man').
Just to offer some insights into how big Tom Ford International has become: One perfume counter at the department store, Selfridges, in London made £1.5m (US$2.5m) alone during 2008. The costume department for James Bond a.k.a. Daniel Craig had more than 350 Tom Ford suits made for the filming of 'Quantum of Solace'.
Despite the hefty price tag of its goods, the label now has 18 standalone stores & is stocked in more than 65 shops worldwide.
With a highly distinctive 'X' or cross-over frame (one of the noted trends this season), the To
m Ford 'Peter' unisex sunglasses seamlessly combines a classic aviator look with a glamorous & sexy appeal. One can imagine how right pleased the designer must have been with ‘Peter’, seeing as he’s put it front & centre in his 2009-2010 ad campaign. Photographed by Tom Ford himself, both Anna Jagodzinska & Jon Kortajarena (a Ford favourite &, according to Forbes, the world’s 8th top male model) are seen stripped down to nothing -- well, except for their ‘Peters’, & one or two accessories. That’s certainly one way to focus attention on the product ;-)
