Commemorating the launch of Tom Ford at Mr Porter, the designer sat down with the retailer for an intimate interview, where he discussed everything from style to his morning routine. Addressing the process of aging and how it affects style, Ford explains, “I don’t think you have to change who you are. If you’re…someone who likes jeans, a leather jacket and a white shirt, I think you can stay that person, but I think that person at 70 is going to wear different versions of that or wear it in a different way.”

Moving on to the topic of his daily routine, the American designer dishes on early mornings. He shares, “I get up and make myself a gigantic iced coffee. I then answer emails and work until about 6am. Then I will head upstairs and have a second giant iced coffee and lay in the bathtub. I don’t like warm drinks of any kind. I lay in my bathtub with a bendable straw in my coffee and no lights and only one candle lit. I love that time in the morning when no one else is awake, and I’m alone, and then I can slowly come to life.” Read more at MrPorter.com.
