Thom Browne has launched a limited-edition High Summer Capsule Collection for both men and women, drawing inspiration from American sportswear of the 1920s and 1930s. This collection emphasizes lightweight tailoring and the use of typewriter fabric to reflect a powerful blend of elegance and nostalgia.
Key items in Thom Browne's High Summer Capsule Collection include a belted midi pleated dress and tailored sportswear pieces, such as the cotton Milano cropped cardigan and oxford shirts. For men, offerings feature relaxed trousers, rugby shorts, and classic outerwear. A cotton twill baseball cap and accompanying eyewear, including cat-eye sunglasses, complement the line. The garments are detailed with Thom Browne's signature four-bar pattern and an American flag patch, which adds a unique touch.
