When everything is accessible for everyone's comments and opinions (often uninformed) too soon it dilutes the experience. I think he's one of the most creative minds working today in fashion –or film!<br />Thanks for sharing!<br /><a href="http://www.styledefined.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Style Defined NYC</a>Katya Moormanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08450343779043685760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8401355923091588637.post-74631989825050251982010-09-18T16:09:34.929-04:002010-09-18T16:09:34.929-04:00I for one don't give a damn about Tom Ford, an...I for one don't give a damn about Tom Ford, and I think it's laughable how willingly the entire fashion world plays his game.

After all, his real clients wont all be 15yo starved to death clothes hangers.<br />I'm glad he saw fit to keep the show for his real clients not just the celebutante du jour and entourage and hoards of wannabes (that would NEVER purchase his garments but would buy the knock-offs and pretend)... there's a reason people still talk about Studio 54... it's was always about the power of the velvet rope it created the mystique and allure like no other.<br />Also, I might add, that in this age of instant communication he is ensuring that his designs wont be copied by the time they hit the stores!<br />By the time the knock-offs are made it will be too late...
