"I
thrive on failure," Ford said. "I thrive on things that are not
perfect. It sends me back into the ring to get it right."
And it seems things are going right since
Ford - who sold his Andy Warhol self-portrait for $32.6 million in 2010 to help
finance his growing label - is about to become fashion's newest billionaire.
"By
early 2014, if we continue to meet our business plan, we will hit one billion
dollars [a year] at retail of Tom Ford products," he told The Business of
Fashion.
"That's all the products together: eyewear, fragrance, cosmetics,
ready-to-wear, men's and women's accessories. A billion dollars of product with
the label Tom Ford on it will be selling at retail."
