two lost travelers meet…
one has traveled far and wide across this planet…
one has traveled farther…
thom browne’s fall 2023 collection tells a story of loneliness, loss, determination, and exploration.
a crashed pilot is alone in the desert… in beading, fringe, and earthy tulle, under a paisley aviator’s suit and platform astronaut boots.
a young traveler, a prince, is also lost… in grey flannel tweed tailoring over a dress embroidered with gold bullion baobab roots.
before arriving on earth, the prince left his home planet and visited six other planets… in white organza dresses with intarsia silk fabrics.
our young traveler found that adults always need to be told what to do…
they only see what’s in front of them…
the clocks… in uniform paisley jacquard corsets under oversized, individually hand-woven tweed tailoring with roped shoulders, and crocheted gold metal thread headpieces.
what is most important is invisible…
the asteroids… in unique embroidered tweed dresses under deconstructed pinstripe suits, buckled platform astronaut boots, and hand-knitted gold bullion baobab headpieces.
the elephant… in embroidered matte sequin jacket and skirt with an intarsia paisley bow, over a grey hand pulled chiffon tweed dress.
the special rose… in degradé silver and gold bullion embroidered top and skirt, over a full length paisley jacquard dress. the three roses… in molded-shoulder seamless tartan tops and skirts over paisley jacquard dresses.
the fox… in paisley jacquard dress with articulated sleeves and gold embroidery, over red degrade breaded dress with silk-cotton fringe and swarovski crystals.
the snake… in an anatomical dress with stacked sequins, individually wrapped in shades of tulle.
the angel… in a white lace-up tweed dress with deconstructed tailoring and gathered sheer silk stole with pearls.
our young traveler will never walk alone…
