Thom Browne is widely recognized for redefining modern tailoring. Through his men's, women's, and children's collections, Browne conveys a truly American sensibility. In 2003, Browne started his business in a custom shop in New York City's West Village, wearing five gray suits. On each jacket and pair of trousers, he paired a gray cardigan, a white Oxford shirt, a gray tie with a silver tie bar, and classic black brogues. The jacket was sharply cut with high armholes. The trousers were hemmed at the ankle. This was the Thom Browne uniform.
Since then, the company has expanded to include ready-to-wear, footwear, accessories, and a new fragrance. Browne is now renowned for his fashion shows and films, which have gained global attention for immersing audiences in his unique world. Each collection represents a new story of his own, using traditional fabrics and reinterpreting them in new ways. As a global brand with over 50 stores, Thom Browne continues to challenge expectations with his designs, tailoring, and presentation. His influence is evident through the culturally defining people who wear Thom Browne. The gray suit remains a fundamental element of everything he does, symbolizing a distinct point of view and a commitment to exceptional quality in fabric and tailoring.
