In the World of Thom Browne: The Making of the Spring/Summer 2020 Show

… seersucker world …
discover the spring/summer 2020 collection


winter hangs up its thick grey coat ...
the sun arrives, flowers bloom, the sky turns blue ...
put the wool away, it’s seersucker season...

railroad stripe, smooth and rough, puckered and soft ...

seersucker ... 
a staple of american prep ...
an east coast classic, the badge of summer ...
casually elegant, rumpled yet sharp ...

lightweight cotton, woven to be puckered ...
a fabric that breathes ... a light touch on the skin ...
ease of movement, cool on the inside ...

enter the world of thom browne seersucker

for thom browne, the summer counterpoint to winter’s grey wool ...
the soft drape of a light fabric sharpened by classic tailoring ...
a texture made beautiful with each new wrinkle ...

a childhood introduction, a first summer suit ...

a seasonal friend, a ritual of summer life ... 
a feature of thom browne’s youth becomes a tailored uniform for the season ...
a simple fabric, a little forgotten, now a new story ... 

enter the world of thom browne seersucker

from the beginning, a feature of the thom browne wardrobe ... 
a vehicle for creative exploration ... 

like a secret seersucker garden, a versailles fantasy ...

grey stripe becomes red, pink, blue, yellow, green ... 
mid-century becomes 18th century ...
 seersucker with satin, peplum, boucle tweed ...

paniers and blazers, promenades in pairs ...
the striped palette of the summer season …

enter the world of thom browne seersucker

a secret garden ... a bloom in grey and white seersucker ...
a melody of birdsong. one by one, two by two, the guests arrive ...

a dance, a curtsy, les demoiselles ...
seersucker panniers and coats of boucle tweed ...

a garden party in seersucker ...
grey and white, green and white ... 
yellow and white, blue and white ... 

the woven answer to a glorious summer day …

enter the world of thom browne seersucker

twirl of a straw boater, hidden behind a veil ....
draped panniers in pink silk taffeta seersucker ...

hand-in-hand, hands held aloft ...
trompe l’oeil and dolphin intarsia ...
pleated and gathered ...

a bride finishes the tableaux. another curtsy. another bow ...

enchanté …

meanwhile, a procession ...
a day of games and leisure in the garden ...

champagne toasts under a mulberry tree ...
long coats and panniers ...heels and skirts ...
the world of thom browne in XVIII century versailles ...

games in the sun. a day on the lawn ...
a stroll. parasols and halos of red, white, and blue ...
always ready for sport in seersucker ...

enter the world of thom browne seersucker

jackets with red, white, and blue silk buttons ...
seersucker ties, white shirts in oxford ...
a seersucker cod piece ...

sporting completed, now macarons and champagne by the fountain ... 
silk piping and aquatic animal embroidery ...
bows in signature grosgrain ...

an air kiss, a final goodbye ...
until tomorrow  ... another day in the garden…
