Tom Ford Shares Tips on How to Look Awesome on Video Calls

 

The coronavirus pandemic has limited people to their homes, and office meetings have turned to video calls. Most people were secretly thinking about how to look good on video calls. The ever-stylish Tom Ford has provided the answer at last.

 

NYT journalist Maureen Dowd asked Tom Ford, who recently made news when he slashed the prices of his New Mexico Ranch for some tips as she was gearing up to interview Larry David via FaceTime.

Tom Ford said this “Put the computer up on a stack of books so the camera is slightly higher than your head. Say, about the top of your head. And then point it down into your eyes. Take a tall lamp and set it next to the computer on the side of your face you feel is best. The lamp should be in line with and slightly behind the computer so the light falls nicely on your face. Then put a piece of white paper or a white tablecloth on the table you are sitting at, but make sure it can’t be seen in the frame. It will give you a bit of fill and bounce. And lots of powder, et voila!”

 

These tips prove that Tom Ford can be trusted with anything, be it creating some of the best fragrances or helping people avoid looking like potatoes on video calls.
