Undeniably one of menswear’s most rebellious designers, Thom Browne looks to old New York as his inspiration for fall’s collection. Letting out his shrunken silhouette, the outlandish designer took to exaggerated proportions to convey an overindulgent sense of luxury. With fur spilling out of the unlikeliest places, Browne turned to outerwear as a clear component of the collection’s worth, while elongated knits and tops made a wild splash against Browne’s impeccably tailored suiting. Whether his proportions are large or small, fall’s outing reaffirms Browne’s unwillingness to compromise his vision to the whims of the times.
Subscribing to a palette of neutrals and festive colors, Lacoste continues New York’s colorful streak. Taking to a yellow runway, there was no reason to be gloomy at Lacoste’s show. Embracing relaxed silhouettes of sporty yet chic separates, the label’s accessibility factor was through the roof as look after look produced comfortable updated staples.
The last two seasons, Miuccia Prada’s vision has dictated an overwhelming presence of studs and mesh. Taking a nostalgic step back, Prada lightens up this season with a retro-inspired collection. Easing away from the color black, coral, yellow, cobalt and orange are introduced to lend Prada’s shrunken knits and doubled collars a peppy spirit. Meanwhile, loafers and pleated trousers complete an unwavering nod to the past.
