...time to sleep...
palazzina appiani, milan, april 2024
thom browne’s debut installation at salone del mobile. positioned in the center of the palazzina appiani, six simple mid-century cots are made up with custom thom browne by frette bedding in fine cotton sateen, detailed with browne’s signature four-bar insignia.
the room is empty until it is not. one by one, six individuals enter. they are dressed for sleep. yet, when they arrive at their respective beds, they do not get in. instead, they dress for the work of their dreams; in browne’s signature grey reinterpretation of the mid-century office uniform. only when they are in their grey suits are they prepared to voyage to the dream world; sounds of slumber and lullabies escort their journey.
thom browne and frette are proud to debut an exclusive collaboration.
rooted in a shared dedication to perfection, from the curation of meticulous fibres to the application of heritage textile techniques, every piece in this eagerly awaited collaboration exemplifies their unwavering commitment to excellence.
