Tom Ford Upgrades a Construction Worker's Look | Project Upgrade | GQ

Welcome to another episode of
"You're not ugly, you're just poor"

[Ben.Hubble]

It looks like they took a model made him into what they think a construction worker looks like then turned him back into a model.

[lmlm_]

“Upgrade him so he looks like the guy who owns the company” ...he looks like an Italian actor who once played the owner of a construction company.

[nabub]

I swear this show is just an excuse for Tom to find hot guys for himself.

[RafaelHernandez-vtfu]

“We wanted to keep him in his element” so they just put him in a $7, 000 top coat 😂

[Ironworthstriking]

Imagine this guy entering a construction site dressed like this. He'd be mercilessly mocked.

[marvvv]

Very true men also need to be complimented.

[mischiefstitch]

Question: do they keep the outfits after or do y’all be like “Okay, you had your moment. Take it off.”

[thewu-flu]

*Why did they dress him up as Niko bellic?*

[darkknightsds]

What most people don't realize is that he may be a "construction worker" during the day, but he's also likely an aspiring model or actor who's listed with an agency who booked him this gig.

[ironfae]

I almost bought a Ford suit, but paying off my car was cheaper.

[Peacelover]

I love watching this series but honestly they are all already attractive. I would like seeing tom ford giving a makeover to someone who's not conventionally attractive. Because you know, not everyone got that good genes jackpot (and maybe I need some hope okay)

[irinafersch]

I actually agree with him about men not getting compliments and I remember being raised with the concept that if I compliment a guy on his appearance, it will be understood as flirting. Which is sad, it makes us hold back. I make a point now of telling my husband how gorgeous he looks on a regular basis. Everybody needs that boost of confidence!

[thejonathanrath]

What a transformation. The $10k outfit helps, but still.

[farhanj]

Tom is ABSOLUTELY right about men not getting enough of compliments/proper grooming. 👍👍👍

[maxharrison]

I wish my hair dresser looked that the hair dresser there

[MTALMAN]

Tom Ford has such a nice voice. Can’t stop watching these.

[uchihaish]

The last line tom said is actually spot on .. we need compliments too u know :( as some writer once said " no one needs a smile more then those who give it "

[fl]

I’ve gone into a binge with this series. All the clothes are just dreams. The textures, colors. On the one extreme you have brands like Tom Ford and Brioni and then on the other end you have the new Louis Vuitton. Don’t even understand how they all fall in the same category.

[sans]

Actually, this is how construction workers look in Tom Ford's fantacies.
