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.
