Thom Browne Fall/​Winter 2012 | Paris Fashion Week

tbrowne Thom Browne Fall/Winter 2012 | Paris Fashion Week

Lit­tle House of Hor­rors–Gather a high volt­age chair, a splash of the macabre and the Amer­i­can sports­man and you have Thom Browne’s lat­est cre­ation. Stuffed into Browne’s lit­tle gray suit, a steroid-​​induced man appeared with bulging shoul­ders against a petite alter ego, infused with punk. While sweaters, cut from mohair made for a giant-​​sized impres­sion, studs and safety pins dec­o­rated seams and hems. Inject­ing the var­sity jacket with vol­ume, clas­sic stand­bys were treated to a whim­si­cal retreat into the dark cor­ners of Browne’s cre­ative genius. Jux­ta­posed with mid-​​riff bar­ing tops and gar­ments in water­melon green and pink, the idea of clas­sic menswear was torn to shreds and pre­sented as Thom Browne’s lat­est fan­tasy, in some aspects wear­able but at large a stir­ring ges­ture to sit back and take in.

 Michael Whittaker for Stolen Girlfriends Club Spring 2012

Big Come Down–Inspired by the works of New Zealand artist Karl Maughan, Michael Whit­taker is enlisted for Stolen Girl­friends Club’s spring 2012 collection’s gar­den party of print and col­ors. Explor­ing the hyper sur­re­al­is­tic realm of the artist, the fan­tas­ti­cal ele­ments of Maughan’s work are trans­lated onto an explo­sion of tank tops, over­size tees and color blocked shorts. Much softer and slicker than past col­lec­tions, the rock’n’roll label ven­tures into tai­lored ter­ri­to­ries with slim cut shirt­ing, while also main­tain­ing their sig­na­ture edge under­tone with skinny jeans, denim vests and raw finishing.
