You clearly left your SOH behind, and besides - he's not designing for plebs in the burbs.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00398194122282872745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8401355923091588637.post-87808489944310939552009-07-30T17:41:50.942-04:002009-07-30T17:41:50.942-04:00I remember once upon a time when Thom Browne was a...I remember once upon a time when Thom Browne was an exciting new talent on the menswear scene- five years ago. When Bergdorf started carrying his stuff I was totally disillusioned- instead of cool skinny suits in a new proportion, I saw weird looking pants and jackets in what I recall was banana yellow. Granted I have a narrow vision of what I want to see men wearing, but this was plain ridic. What a disappointment!SBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07367236533781846909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8401355923091588637.post-43747118567286894932009-04-06T15:11:00.000-04:002009-04-06T15:11:00.000-04:00Brooksie,What I don't get is what took them so ***...Brooksie,<BR/>What I don't get is what took them so ******* long?<BR/>FluffFluff Chancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17757091504806772512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8401355923091588637.post-12340295862415597952009-04-06T14:08:00.000-04:002009-04-06T14:08:00.000-04:00Tom Browne's all about the same ol' hooey.

Even the fashion world has a tolerance point and he's seemed to reach it.<BR/><BR/>brooskieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8401355923091588637.post-55516497218861896342009-04-02T07:41:00.000-04:002009-04-02T07:41:00.000-04:00Eric, I have seen the same thing and it is bafflin...Eric, I have seen the same thing and it is baffling. I wrote another shorty bit on him March 2nd a year ago. If you're curious , just go back through older posts to that one. you may enjoy it. Thanks, Fluff.<BR/>I loved the Eyes of Laura Mars, was obsessed with Margaux Hemingway and still have the soundtrack.Fluff Chancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17757091504806772512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8401355923091588637.post-11289192845154298142009-04-01T15:23:00.000-04:002009-04-01T15:23:00.000-04:00I was in the city last weekend and TB was standing...I was in the city last weekend and TB was standing next to us, hailing a taxi on W 8th and Jane. Of course he was decked out in the full look -- a grown man sausaged into a shrunken boy's suit with sneakers and Peter Pan hair. Utterly absurd, like an unfunny joke before the fall. I'd flounce around in Galliano any day before that. Brooks' shame -- why not Bastian?Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14002953317643026318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8401355923091588637.post-705649486988456202009-03-31T15:42:00.000-04:002009-03-31T15:42:00.000-04:00Nothing gets my husband laughing like a look throu...Nothing gets my husband laughing like a look through a Thom Browne runway show. Though he didn't find the tie-up with Brooks very funny.<BR/><BR/>So it's hard for me to be sympathetic to a person whose viewpoint never merited the acclaim it received, but if there is a small clientele who clamour after his stuff, I wish him well.<BR/><BR/>By the way, nice review of the Europe shows, Fluff. Have you seen the Valentino documentary?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
