I come from a family of bankers and lawyers, and they joked that they can't believe I'm the one that gets to go to the White House. Thom Browne bankerfamilyhouse Change image and share on social
Every collaboration I do, I feel like I've benefitted in so many different ways; it all depends on the organization. With Moncler, there is such a heritage to the brand and to the way that they work. With Brooks Brothers, in the same way, having the heritage to draw from in that collaboration is invaluable. Thom Browne benefitbrandbrook share on social
Some people think that my shows are just for shock value, but the provocation makes those classic pieces look different every six months. You don't need to see the same gray suit every season. But surrounding it with 40 really interesting ideas makes it feel new. Thom Browne classicfeelgray share on social
I love the idea of things being strict and things being uniform. That's the reason why I surround each collection with humor or irony. I want to make sure that it's not too serious and that there is some element that throws it off because otherwise that would make it really boring. There's always a story that's somewhat fantastical.

I think it's a shame that it's become acceptable to wear jeans and a T-shirt to any place and function. Thom Browne acceptableeffortfeel share on social
Nothing should be perfect. I think that's the most important thing. I do wear my jackets almost exaggeratedly short. So that's probably the most mussed up. Along with, you know, not ironing my shirt. Thom Browne exaggeratedlyimportantiron Change image and share on social
I think pattern makers are some of the most underrated, undervalued people in fashion. They're the people who are sometimes the geniuses in designing clothing. Thom Browne clthedesignfashion Change image and share on social

I want to put concepts in front of people that make them laugh or smile or even hate what I do. I'm not interested in just putting clothes in stores. Thom Browne clotheconceptfront Change image and share on social
I feel like jeans and a T-shirt have become Establishment. Everyone's dressed down. So actually, putting on a jacket is the anti-Establishment stance. Thom Browne antidressestablishment Change image and share on social
