Jay Z isn't the only Tom Ford fan on the scene. His buddy Justin Timberlake enlisted the designer to create 600 pieces for his 20/20 World Experience Tour, which just kicked off last week. The wardrobe will include eight custom outfits for the singer as well as suits, shirts, ties, shoes and accessories for his dancers, backup singers and the band.
The designer's wares don't come cheap so this tall order will cost JT an estimated $1 million. We can't wait to see what Tom Ford creates for his first crack at a world tour ensemble. The two have worked together since 2011 with Tom Ford as the designer behind JT's "Suit and Tie" video, his 20/20 album cover and his outfit for the biggest day of his life — his wedding with actress Jessica Biel.
"Justin has great personal style and knows what he wants, which makes designing for him an absolute pleasure. He is a tremendous talent and has a kind of effortless cool that makes classic menswear tailoring modern," Ford said.
