Ford: Fashion Is Too Fast

Fashion guru Tom Ford recently declared that trends are now moving so quickly consumers can’t keep up. The former Gucci designer, famed for almost single-handedly bringing the luxury brand to prominence, took a swipe at the industry that adores him by claiming that the demand for newness is forcing artificial style changes.

None except the most dedicated fashionistas can keep up, leaving most consumers to resign themselves to T-shirts and comfortable pants, Ford said.

Although still revered as a fashion icon, Ford has moved away from the industry since leaving Gucci last year and recently signed a fragrance and cosmetics deal with Estée Lauder.
