After all the news speculating about a Tom Ford Beauty standalone store opening in Malaysia for the past few months, we can finally confirm it. After launching in Sephora in March this year with just a handful of products, their first store has opened in Suria KLCC just early this month and we are beyond excited about it. Fans and followers of Tom Ford can now enjoy the whole range in one convenient location.
But it was never easy for Tom Ford. Even though he was involved in quite a number of controversial campaigns in the past, Ford brought his vision into his beauty line in 2006 with his signature scents and that have been sensationalised and glorified worldwide. The brand has since expanded into makeup, skincare and body care over the years — making headlines for the right reasons this time around.
“It is my desire to create the first true luxury brand of the 21st century,” Tom Ford once said.
The brand came into the market as one of the most luxurious beauty brands in the world. Not only its effectiveness proved that they are worthy to be on that upper-range pedestal, their sleek and high quality packaging would be something that customers look for. His bold and sensual personality can be seen throughout the line — aside from the NSFW campaign images where he used staggering names such as “F*cking Fabulous” in his collection (so much for making a statement).
In retrospect to Ford’s story, we’ve put together five highlight products that you’d be proud to own from the brand — including the highly coveted Tom Ford Boys & Girls lip collection that is inspired by the men in his life. Read on more to find out.
