Thom Browne F/W 07 New York

[seenmy]

Personally first 3 outfits in this collection are my highlights of the season so far,rest of the collection is a little too out there for my tastes thigh length socks i just cant see happening it dosent even look that strong on the models so real people have got no chance.

Loving the hooded coats - especially the pullover in the 6th look.

What can I say? There was a lot I hated here, but I can also see where Browne is going. The general concepts are great - bowties, short pantlines, a dapper look - that are blown way out of proportion. But if you consider the dilution of runway trends by retailers for the masses, it makes sense. A couple inches longer on pants, more structured outerwear...

Of course, when Hot Topic introduced its "one-leg pant" for men, not even the most sheep-like of mall goths went for it. Also, the overgrown schoolboy look makes me uncomfortable.

evil santa?

One leg pant? That's a skirt.

I Love this Sweater and Cardigan

[kauflust]

One leg pant? That's a skirt.

I never said it wasn't. But the man skirt has been marketed in the past as a "one-legged pant," presumably to (unsucessfully) get away the "man skirt" stigma. It's like renaming "prunes" to "dried plums." A gentler, kinder nomenclature but still an old folk's fruit just the same.

Wow. thumbs down to my allentown native.

[triniboy27]

Terrible - except for the hooded coats.

I guess there's only so much one can do w/ a short suit.

That second outfit: Klaus Nomi's dead, right?

[macuser3of5]

His last collection ("the septemberists") was infinitely better.

[Thorns]

I loved him back when he was just doing bespoke suits, but now that he's started with these lines its been seriously down hill.

[Icarus]

I totally love the schoolboy shorts and cropped pants. I will be coveting those cropped pants, they are incredible. I think I could fit them into my wardrobe.

[xcoldricex]

that last coat is nice. too bad it'll be like $8000.

[bangbangbang]

Thigh-highs for men?

NO.

[insidertrading]

those thigh highs are dope. worn with nothing else but a pair of berluti derby's, stained tighty whiteys n skinny suspenders (dior homme à la s/s 06') and you've got yourself the freshest set for spring/summer 07. trust.

thom's craftsmanship is always on point. The 3 stripes cashmere cardigan he does every season is nice, but I don't like it presented in the manner it was above, i like it a bit less form fitting (that's a muscle sweater if i ever saw one...).

Other than that, this collection doesn't do much for my eyes. The coats will probably cost a fortune.

still waiting on Thom to deliver a pair of Japanese raw denim in his highwater cut...
