You guys suck. Why would you expose us to this lame topic BLM for life

[@coolkid90xx]

I think it was so important for him to say “I can’t illustrate” because that could stop a lot of designers

[@lefat4697]

...its to be relateable to equally talentless people that call themselves "designers

[@pablogonzalez9842]

Jeff Newtown well, thats the difference between designers and creative directors

[@DnGHo3]

Jeff Newtown not necessarily. I’m not the best at drawing fashion figures and beautiful illustrations. What I can do it’s draw accurate technical drawings of what I want my garment to look like. What matters is the finished product. I know so many designers who created beautiful drawings, but a lot of them have poor sewing talent and no pattern making skills, it doesn’t make them any less of a designer. That’s not how it works in the real world industry.

[@pablogonzalez9842]

DnGHo3 yeah, each house is a different story. I’m just glad when the directors even show up for fittings lol

[@pablogonzalez9842]

Jeff Newtown I’ve been told McQueen mostly draped. Too bad he wasn’t a designer most times then :c

[@jsgracepark]

I guess if you’re a designer you’ll probably try and wear the clothes that you’ve designed but there’s something very satisfying about seeing how everyone at Thom Browne is wearing Thom Browne - including Thom himself lol

[@fionafenty5960]

He needs to go a size up, lmao

[@indirasharma8750]

@@fionafenty5960 no he doesn't. He's doing his vision. Everything is supposed to be too small.

The bags. OMG the bags. I want all of them. And his sketch is so funny, but if it works, then it works.

[@dominicvanwyck8135]

Delightfully weird with a twist of fall business and a bit of artsyness. Kool show. I have no idea how some of those pieces would translate into real world. I want a few of those coats though.

[@julialowe283]

the conceptualism in his sketches and how he transforms them into his designs is incredible

[@honil.]

This is the most crachead sketching idea ive seen

[@ladybirdronan9924]

Ikr. But it all comes down to the actual clothes and garments. I just love his thought process and passion to details.

[@makylacastellanos5484]

Yeezus Season hg h

[@jamestateIII]

Crackhead? How? Everyone has a process. There is no rule that says you must do full renderings. I dont even do that...i do rough sketches in pencil. The idea is that its JUST the idea...NOT the actual product. Ideas are never polished.

[@justinbodden2682]

lol u bring them sketches to a sample maker you absolutely will go bankrupt

[@monsieurgolem3392]

😅

[@MeganMoon777]

I love this! I love Thom Browne! I studied fine arts and fashion design in college and I did a summer internship at teen vogue. So this so interesting. And to all the people who are judging his sketches no designer in Major house sketches. no one. It’s actually rare to see actual fine art drawings and painting skills in fashion. Not that it’s doesn’t exist but it’s rare

[@gregdahlen4375]

if they don't sketch what do they do?

This is so inspirational. What a genius. How can something so over the top be also wearable?

[@the_bowiekid]

This proves you don't have to be a perfect illustrator to be a designer. Most designers don't sketch, they have ppl do it for them. #FashionBabe Love Thome Brown ! ❤

[@ladybirdronan9924]

Yeah. Because it's always about the idea, vision and the consciousness behind it.

[@bobbyangelov645]

Couldn't Agree more with you!

[@arlene7643]

At first I didn't really understand his sketch, but after seeing the fininal results I do actually! What a great designer! And I love love love those animal bags!

[@nub5515]

I find it so intriguing when Famous Designers clearly admit to not knowing how to Sketch, Sew or Create original Patterns and somehow they always relay on the team while becoming a big name Designer that the team creates it all. Its liberating to know you don’t even have to create to be considered a big name fashion designer. Who knew

[@thelasonj]

🖤🖤🖤 I love to know the thought process of the Designer, start to finish. This is FASCINATING! Wow. This really made my morning. Thank you! 🖤🖤🖤

[@jlouutube65]

I hope the sketch artist gets as much recognition. Thom Browne is only the conceptual artist. Without the sketch artist there would be no end product.

[@nub5515]

The pattern maker or the person to sew it all together

[@nfhstudios]

ngl those sketches while maybe a nice as a modernistic art piece, are completely unnecessary and don't convey any information whatsoever, AMAZING end product tho hats of to this magician

[@MP-dy3xd]

NLD Really? He even explained it lol

[@jared9727]

They're completely necessary if they consistently lead him to such stellar outcomes.

[@fionafenty5960]

ah yes ... 8:15 is such a "stellar outfit" Much wow ..

[@nfhstudios]

Jared yes I agree but that’s not what I meant, I meant that if people are coming on this video for tips on how to improve their design process, as I was, this method is very unique to him, It may be necessary for him but unnecessary for literally anyone else in the world doing fashion or design. My first comment was just a harshly worded way of saying that I don’t think this way of sketching a very efficient way of working for most people that’s all. Just my personal opinion 🤷🏽‍♂️

Amazing designer among so many pretenders of one minute fame. His collections are spectacular, artful, innovative and always captivating. His appreciation for beautiful natural fibers and workmanship is so rare among neoprene and pleather.

[@gregdahlen4375]

someone in another comment said the designers at major houses *_don't_* sketch, so maybe you could do it. On my KZbin the comment is a few above yours. Here's what the comment said "I love this! I love Thom Browne! I studied fine arts and fashion design in college and I did a summer internship at teen vogue. So this so interesting. And to all the people who are judging his sketches no designer in Major house sketches. no one. It’s actually rare to see actual fine art drawings and painting skills in fashion. Not that it’s doesn’t exist but it’s rare" also, practice makes perfect, so with more practice you would probably get better at sketching and drawing. but that comment is saying a designer doesn't necessarily have to be good at it.
