Coming soon to a Wimbledon and US Open nearest you? I hear all it takes is a call from Anna.

Is that a halter top? I can't wait to back at this bastardization 10-20 years from now.

As GS says, the red brogues are awesome. However, these days I tend to look forward more to the Black Fleece season launches than the TB shows. Especially since the TB shows are pretty "runway only" to put it lightly.

The bound edges on this sportcoat:

And this sweater thing:

Again, nice socks.

His models look as though they'd much rather crawl with a bare belly over a combo of broken glass and barbed wire

Keep pushing the envelope Thom and keep them talking! After the boring and lack of inspirational showings this week in NYC, we are probably the future of American fashion. Someone in America has to compete with the Europeans to push fashion design forward . I will keep dreaming and Mr. Browne will keep delivering. Strangeness should not be mocked , but embraced.

I am sure FIT is happy and wealthy selling traditional neckties, but I am striving for the Gold Medal. I want to make a fashion statement!!

There is a fine line between those that are talented and those that are gifted . One follows and the other leads.


I look forward to the Browne-Glennie collaboration. Male-tutus and napkin-holder tie clips.
