Quotable: Don’t worry, this designer’s love for plastic surgery won’t result in him getting a new, Bruce Jenner-esque face

According to Tom Ford, cutting and pinning fabric is a lot like cutting and pinning a face. The designer explained while at the 92Y in New York, “In another life I would love to be a cosmetic surgeon because it’s architectural. You know, you are trying to figure out where the seams go. Can I do it in one piece like Halston? Can you formaldehyde DNA?” But despite his ambitions in plasticity, it seems as though Ford won’t be pulling a Bruce Jenner anytime soon:

“A man can’t have a facelift very well because they cut here and then you have your sideburns in your ear. I quite like my beard. There is this little gap here. I am always looking to see whose got the hairs growing out of the side of the ears.”
