in thom’s garden…
flowers bloom in seersucker…
freshly watered…
bugs buzz crawl and flutter…
the sun shines…
classic patterns…
create new life…
thom browne welcomes new growth for spring…
as groundkeepers meticulously tend to 400 seersucker flowerpots, a dormant garden wakes. thom’s garden is arranged in a grid, reflecting the symmetry in the neoclassical porticoes of the surrounding palazzo serbelloni…
back to italy for the first time since 2008, thom presents an evolution of his core
identity. refreshed for spring. reinterpreted for milan. Thom’s 2027 take on
the hallmarks of American prep come to life with the undulating, lifelike beat of
klaus nomi and vince clark’s ‘nomi song…’
classic tailoring sheds its weight in windowpane check cool wool, technical nylon
seersucker, open-wave cotton suiting, grid check wool pique, jacketweight
cashmere, and madras plaids. sleeveless bal collar coats, short sleeve sport
coats, weightless sack jackets. unlined and halflined. thom’s signature grey,
white, red, and navy are joined by yellow, green, pink, and sky blue. relaxed
silhouettes rooted in traditional proportions…
embroidered bumble bees climb over honeycomb…
frogs leap across lily pads…
cricket and ant appliqués glimmer alongside dragonfly wings and honeycomb embroidery…
radial embroidery camouflage, bouillon thread-work, hand painted checks, and floating yarns compliment fun mix, intarsia, and patchwork embroidery. distressed tipping is seen throughout the collection representing the seasonal cycles and generations of life these garments will see...
these complex embellishments are grounded by functional details and iconic thom browne codes from self-tipping, self-armbands, and shell construction to cotton cricketing and red, white, and blue taping. patchworked tailoring materials and fabric manipulation evolve thom’s classic ideas, punctuated for 2027 with large-brimmed boater hats trimmed in grosgrain ribbon, translucent checked beekeeper veils, and silk rep stripe ties…
the layers beneath are equally airy: poplin shirting with detachable contrast collars and cuffs layered with fine gauge cotton knits. lightweight outerwear includes cordura trench coats, nylon funnel neck parkas, seersucker shell car coats, and tech field jackets. crafted with burnished grey leather, a structured moto jacket lends its weight, as does a patent leather scout jacket and its coordinating skirt. a distinctly thom browne approach to american prep and traditional menswear detailing refreshed and revived for spring 2027...
the collection’s vibrant colors diffuse into a triumphant white…
wrapped in a tulle veil hand-beaded with pearls, the bride emerges in sharp cotton swiss dot tailoring outlined in grosgrain tipping…
a bright column of light at midday. a sign that spring has just begun…
