Thom Browne will return to New York Fashion Week for the February 2024 showcase.

Last yr, the designer determined to forego the Spring/Summer 2024 shows in September after debuting his Haute Couture assortment in Paris for the primary time ever. However, following his yr hiatus from the style festivities at dwelling, Browne is scheduled to present on 14 February, capping the upcoming seven-day affair.

This received’t be the primary time Browne’s offered on Valentine’s Day. On 14 February 2023, the famed artist gave a nod to his accomplice, Andrew Bolton, on the finish of his Fall 2023 Read-to-Wear present. Promptly after taking his bow, the romantic handed Bolton a field of candies.

The couple, who’ve been relationship since 2011, lately bought property upstate in Germantown, Teviotdale. Built in 1973 and designed by Walter Livingston, the house, which is now on the National Register of Historic Places, as soon as belonged to Robert Fulton. This is the second property Browne and Bolton have purchased – the Nineteen Twenties Sutton Place mansion owned by Anne Vanderbilt being their first.

The new property appears to be Browne’s muse for his Pre-Fall assortment, reconfiguring era-appropriate codes to be mirrored in his new clothes and equipment. While we’ve seen the model completely encapsulate recherche structuring in bolder couture items, resort, and ready-to-wear, Browne appears to step away from his unexampled fashion for this assortment. Instead, America’s pioneer tailoring is revisited with fitted jackets, matching accordion mid-length skirts, and lengthy overcoats.

Additionally, Browne’s Pre-Fall womenswear line pays homage to Edgar Allan Poe’s Macabre and the poet’s trademark raven with a brand new bag just like the model’s iconic Hector. The raven, and roses, are mirrored elsewhere in the gathering, stitched and printed on just a few materials. Tartan and tweed might be seen in the gathering’s suiting as effectively.

For the official lookbook, fashions solid darkish shadows with daring black lipstick – a salute to an omnipresence of horror, traditionally and presently.

When requested whether or not he thought his new dwelling in Germantown was creepy, Browne instructed Women’s Wear Daily: “Well, it’s a little creepy now because it needs so much work. But we’re looking forward to the project.”

Thom Browne’s stamp – a crimson, white and blue stripe – will not be misplaced, showing on jacket arms and pockets, in addition to purse and heel tags. Bermuda luggage are made to be extra “Browne” with handles made out of fake tortoiseshell, not wooden. Thus, celebrating and manipulating Ivy fashion.
