Tom Ford does the chicest ice bucket challenge yet


The ice bucket challenge is still going strong, and the celebrities who choose to participate in the challenge continue to surprise.
Tom Ford, the American designer beloved by the Obamas and famous for his work as the creative director of Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent, completed the ice bucket challenge in the most stylish way possible. Dressed in denim on denim — complete with an apparently waterproof gold watch — Ford is doused by his husband, Richard Buckley.
Ford joins the likes of fashion mavens Anna Wintour, Jean Paul Gaultier, and Kate Moss, who have all completed the viral video challenge for ALS awareness. Victoria Beckham nominated Ford in her own ice bucket challenge, and Ford nominated Louis Vuitton's Nicolas Ghesquière and Saint Laurent's Hedi Slimane to complete the challenge next. Check out Ford's challenge in the video below. --Meghan DeMaria
