I really love a label that incorporates the timeless and the ridiculous, but seems to pull the two together to form the effortlessly cool. That is what Thom Browne does. He has held 4 very distinct, striking runway shows in the past 2 years and has stirred up innovation in menswear. His unconventional style choices have made me want to experiment in the androgynous side of fashion which I had never thought to do before. Like roll my pants above my ankles and paint my toms to look like loafers. It has also caused me to look back on other shows from the past that exude that same look of "poor little rich boy". Dsquared^2 did a show in fall 2006 for example that incorporated similar elements of a classic gentleman (or lady) with a modern twist. Mr. Browne, thank you so much for all the insight and for helping me officially become a thom-girl.
