What would you call the company / group / person who makes his clothes, in that case?

Simply curious.

Thom uses an Italian tailor in one of New York's five boroughs (Brookyln, I believe). He doesn't use "a company/group".

Bottomline is, despite his outrageous displays, Thom Browne is quality. I've handled the clothes in-store, and they not only feel luxurious, but have an excellent fit.

Yup.

It's because he has a good manufacturer. Certainly, the prices match.

"Manufacturer"? You seem to be unable to stop spewing rubbish.

I think Barney's in tokyo stocks him. Some of the higher end select stores may have it also: beams international gallery, united arrows or via bus stop. Why get it in asia though? It's even more ridiculously priced there than it is in the states.

What about Harvey Nicks in Hong Kong?

Read a magazine sometime.

Another idiot who thinks that catwalk presentations equal the real deal.

How a designer shows his clothes on the catwalk is purely artistic expression. His customers (especially Thom's) will always get their garments altered to their liking.

Apparently WIlliamson replaced Lacroix in 2006.

I'd obviously known that little tidbit all along.

I will be in Asia next week, so I'm looking for retailers in that region with Thom Browne in stock.

do you know why? is it cos it is not selling well?

Correct.

I think Lacroix does Emilio Pucci.

Incorrect.

Matthew Williamson does Pucci.

I'm actually happy about Van Assche's appointment as Hedi's replacement, as he'll be able to inject some feeling into the line.

Try a tan suit for the evening instead.

Not even remotely interested, I'm afraid.

Does anybody know?

Analog is right, but production for the line will soon cease.

I don't get it.

Which of the following items would you get?:

A) Jil Sander black dress shirt: US$285

Jil Sander white dress shirt with very thin grey stripes: US$370

C) Dior Homme black T-shirt with white roses: US$180

D) Dior Homme black dress shirt with white bee detail: US$455
