Thom Browne's Fall 2009 Winter Micro Shorts for Fashionably Thick Skin
References: thombrowne & men.style
Boy, does Thom Browne have some stylishly confusing tricks up his sleeves. Thanks to the New York City-based fashion designer, short shorts are back, but it’s not how you think. A) they’re being worn in winter and B) they’re being designed for guys!
Thom Browne has never been one to dress the ordinary, but with people watching their wallets more closely, are people really going to be shelling out for Nordic-print short-short suits like the ones he showed in his Fall 2009 show? The pieces looked like they were designed for fashionably daring (or confused) men on a job hunt somewhere in the far north. Perhaps a tribute to Iceland’s economy?
Regardless of its peculiarity, the Fall 2009 Thom Browne collection was one to marvel at!
