Tom Ford’s Most Controversial Fashion Moments of All-Time

Fashion

In March 2019, a quote from Ford calling Melania Trump “a glorified escort” made its way around the Internet. There was just one problem: it all came from a fake tweet that ended up making so much noise a spokesperson for Ford had to issue a statement on Twitter, writing, “This is an absolutely fabricated and completely fake quote that somehow went viral. Mr. Ford did not make this statement; it is completely false.”

In an interview with WWD soon after the non-controversy, Ford once again denied the quote, saying, “Never! Never, ever, ever, have I said that Melania was an escort.”

However, several years prior, Ford made headlines after he appeared on The View and revealed he had declined dressing the First Lady, explaining, “She’s not necessarily my image.” He later clarified he believed his clothes “too expensive” for any political figure to wear, telling Elle, “I don’t think most women or men in our country can relate to that, and I think the First Lady or the President should represent all people.”
