The Quotable Tom Ford

Labels:

, , ,
    As a new season of Project Runway premiered last night, I thought I'd share a fashion-related tattoo. Working on "Fashion Avenue," I see a lot of ink on people in the industry. Here's one from Megan:


    This is a quote by the fashion designer Tom Ford:

    "Beauty is an illusion/It is here only for a moment/Then it fades/But in the brief moment of existence/It has forever/impacted the world"
    Megan read these words in one of Ford's books, in a section about evening wear.

    "I love Tom Ford," she told me, "and I think he's a very smart man."

    The tattoo was done about 2-3 years ago at Ink Candy in Hollywood by an artist named Angel.

    Thanks to Megan for sharing this inspirational quote with us here on Tattoosday!
