Thom Browne Resort 2016 is a pastel fantasy in menswear inspired clothing. In welcoming transitional season ahead, Thom Browne offer something downright cheerful for Resort, at least mourning period is over for temporarily. Essentially he made a preppy basic directional, showing it on head-to-toe tailored ensembles layered with classic pastel button-down shirts, bright polo knits and flexing his fabric development prowess all the way.
This collection is a slightly exotic than ever, there were preppy pleats and cricket stripes, sleek tartan sheaths in Japanese school uniform fabric (apparently he mixed American sportswear with Asian influence) yielding a bright scarf skirt cut out of two perfect squares of fabric, as well as embroideries on the collars of tweed jackets and the silk jacquard pattern on a graceful. There’s also a sequin-trimmed cape, candy-colored cashmere polo shirts with neat little collars, collect-em-all cardigans, fringed waffle-knits and true bi-color brogues and boots, made at the same factory as his men’s. Without protests this collection is a new breeze of Browne’s playful aesthetic, only this time as an oasis of clean lines and controlled bursts of his eccentric charm. (Text Teuku Ajie)
