Founded in 2005 in New York by designer Tom Ford, the Tom Ford brand quickly established itself as a big name in luxury menswear, womenswear, eyewear, beauty and accessories. In 2023, Estée Lauder Companies acquired the Tom Ford brand in a deal valued at $2.8bn (£2.05bn), marking its largest-ever acquisition. The fashion segment, including ready-to-wear and accessories, is now licensed to Zegna Group.
