Thom Browne’s quirky Spring/​Summer 2013 collection

Posted on July 9, 2012 by desmondzhengs

Madras and plaid dec­o­rated the lat­est offer­ing from designer Thom Browne. Mix­ing a sub­tle nau­ti­cal motif with his most tamed col­lec­tion to date, the suited short set dom­i­nated. Cuffed and paired with the shrunken blazer, shorts were com­ple­mented by Browne’s sig­na­ture knee-high socks. Lay­er­ing looks, shorts became shorter and prints more novel. Whales appeared as clouds and the lob­ster found itself hard to be missed. Coats with halved sleeves were the go-to as spring pas­tels cre­ated an end­less sea of a del­i­cate take on menswear. Acces­sorized in sun­glasses and hold­ing the occa­sional umbrella, Thom Browne’s man was the quin­tes­sen­tial prep star of the sea­son, even touch­ing upon a quirky rein­ter­pre­ta­tion of an alto sophis­ti­cated tweed.
