Tom Ford is arguably one of the most famous designers in the world. He got his start at Gucci and eventually branched out with his own namesake label, quickly developing a legion of fans (Justin Timberlake and Jay-Z included). The designer turned director has his hands in everything (literally) and has made millions selling his sexy brand.
