Thom Browne unveiled his captivating Fall/Winter 2025 Collection during New York Fashion Week. The new pieces did what Thom Browne does best: fusing exceptional tailoring with bold elements. Held at The Shed in Hudson Yards, the runway was adorned with 2,000 paper cranes setting a whimsical backdrop for the show. 

Drawing inspiration from Freedom Birds, the collection consists of 64 looks. The show began with two models in double-faced wool Thom Browne parkas. Their semi-sheer stockings peeked out the top of over-the-knee suede waders, a look balancing both function and fantasy. They sat at a white desk surrounded by origami birds and began making their own.  

 As the show picked up with models dressed in structured tweeds, elongated jackets, and sculptural silhouettes graced the runway. While hemlines didn’t repeat themselves, Brown’s signature gray and navy color palette remained a consistent theme in the collection, this time with pastel accents introducing a playful contrast.  

The collection’s show-stopping finale was a gingham bustle ball gown draped with 40 meters of heritage tweed, embellished with colorful crystals, and paired with a sculptural gold bullion embroidered jacket. 

Accessories, as always, enhanced the collection, with the famous dog-shaped Hector bags and models with colorful feathered eyelashes, adding a whimsical contrast to the rigidly-structured tailoring. These elements underscored Browne’s talent for blending meticulous craftsmanship and tailoring with imaginative design. Once again, Browne proves his ability to push fashion’s boundaries while staying true to his signature craftsmanship.
