A Day in the Life of Fashion Designer Thom Browne | Vogue

Get a look at what life is like for fashion designer Thom Browne, four days before his Paris couture show. Starting off with coffee and “something not very healthy” for breakfast, Thom then sets off to the atelier to get to work. Inspired by the VISAGE song, “Fade to Grey,” Thom details the introspective story fronting his first couture show, a collection that’s an amalgamation of all the things Thom does best.

High regard and respect to their seamstresses, seamster, pattern cutters and technical designers who worked really hard to complete a seamless and impeccable clothes. These people are irreplaceable and the heart of the atelier.

But they couldn't match the stripes on the bell sleeves?

[@Devious91]

@@thedarthflagger you cant match stripes on curved lines that are not symmetric

[@robertbonds6680]

@@thedarthflaggerwho cares about matching

[@thedarthflagger]

@@robertbonds6680 the people who spend tens of thousands do. If seamstresses can match a seam in a 50 dollar shirt at Macy's then surely an atelier can do the same.

[@devonwaddup]

Coffee and something not healthy for breakfast is the realest anyone has been in this series

[@ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293]

Yep. And I'll always credit Karl for being honest about revealing that HIS breakfast was always Diet Coke in a can and a cigarette. It may go some way to explain why he's no longer with us, ahem.

[@user-qt1fv5vp9f]

Its just if you have seen the models they actually eat healthy everyday

[@0812imterri]

Lovely. Please make more content like this. We come here for designers and art, not fake celebrities.

[@pinkblossomsky]

Yessss!!! Agreed! I want to see more of this!

[@landonlandon2251]

Yo: I am screaming @fake celebs🤘 Endless profile building

[@ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293]

He is a genius. His team are magicians. Thom Browne is a little under the radar when it comes to mainstream awareness but his designs are fantastic but thrillingly wearable. The execution by his workshop staff...speechless. 😍😍😍

[@DDBb993]

It's contagious watching how passionate the artist is. Happy watching.

[@basicallyaren8567]

there’s a lot of pretentiousness when it comes to fashion but thom is one person who’s artistry I genuinely respect

[@gemmaparry4510]

The "mermaid" sushi is a wondefful idea. Taking the (sorry Thom) "Millenial grey" and making it couture and beautiful....fantastic

[@karissastisser]

I love how artistic it is while maintaining a gray hue! I love this style 😊

[@naurrrre]

it’s so cute how he always mentions andrew, his husband 😭

[@tzegoh333]

I don't know which is more remarkable : his runway pieces, or the fact that his entire team is in signature grey and white !

[@loganterry9849]

Currently one of the most impressive designer in formal wear. Love love love

[@feather4922]

Even his atelier is visually stunning ....he is art ...he is theatre....beautiful creative calm gentleman....🙏

[@Seaheartivy]

Well thats a real fashion designer, i love his creativity and the way he makes the runaway be an actual story

[@TheIzzyyyyy]

Thom Browne always serves with these collections~ also huge shoutout to the design team and seamstresses for making it happen. they really know their craft and it's amazing to see !!

[@bonaface]

they need to drop the white lab coats though. that is trashy and disrespectful to front line medical workers during the pandemic.

[@thedarthflagger]

Not to mention the mismatched stripes on the sleeves

[@petrabrown4232]

​@@bonafacewhite lab coats are not and have never been a uniform unique to those who you claim are being shown disrespect by Atelier workers wearing them. You are too miserable.

[@YessikaMarmol]

@@thedarthflaggerdon’t worry, as per your request that seamstress got fired after the show for that

[@el_crwn]

I truly enjoyed this video! Much respect to all parties involved and for Thom Brown allowing us to come inside his world for a more intimate experience of what goes on behind the scenes to bring everyones ideas to life.

[@melodymoodz6848]

Thank you for showing us around with your day! It was very fun and I love the places so much! Would love to come there one day as well! Thanks for sharing this with us!! Have a great day all.

[@user-qf4mw8pk5i]

[@evaldaskasiuba1773]

That show blessed my eyes

[@user-wn9tq2oc3d]

Millennials scream with excitement at the rainbow of grey and beautiful storytelling.

[@usuarioxx97]

amo essa estética de imagem. Ótimo formato/produção de conteúdo 🖤

[@DaeWolfe_85]

I remember volunteering for his brand a couple of times. Very professional and very humble ❤

[@oscarpiney2087]

with the intricate storytelling throughout the collection feels very galliano - first couture collection since him that feels new and inspiring

[@ssakuurita]

This series of videos is such a brilliant idea 🩷🩷🩷

[@mariamdobbinshirvani]

Thom is just blooming wonderful.

[@amyherron392]

Love the grey suits you can never go wrong with a nicely tailored suit. The underwater theme with all the embroidery on the different pieces.

[@Akabitiago]

I love Vogue

[@kentuckyChic]

Beautiful so very Beautiful 🙏🏻♥️

[@onegirlsparty]

omg I have be waiting to see behind the scenes TB and the amazing team XOXO

[@heyitzbella]

I love staying up late binge watching vogue videos ❤

[@rockyrox4591]

I love that even Thom’s Driver is so well put together. It says a lot about his perfectionism.

[@YasminA-jm9zs]

I have been seeing his designs everywhere. Congratulations Thom!

[@GH-fb9dh]

The mermaid coat was such a mesmerizing beautiful unique piece! I almost cried when I saw it lol so Schiaparelli

[@Mukichan_official]

This is actually awesome ❤

[@vicbabatio7290]

I love it, loving how artistic he is❤ gray theme of suit style is very elegant and unique.

[@Eclecticksagetv]

omg the details on the garments and the bags are epic and so beautiful ❤‍🔥❤‍🔥

[@thedarthflagger]

Notice the mismatched stripes?

[@Devious91]

It was very interesting to see embroidery being done in a lot of the pieces after it's finished construction. I assumed it had to be done in flat pattern pieces stretched on the frame

[@Mar-kc6cv]

loved this

[@arshbehal6312]

Enchanting and brilliant. ♥️

[@johnjohnson3709]

Very fine video. Thanks so much! 😊

[@mach1nefan]

Visage was in incredible choice, love that song!

[@WelfareChrist]

his outfit looks amazing i want one

[@koohanpaik-mander7567]

I'm not a fashionista (though what I wear always matter), but this collection had me mesmerized. It was somehow incredibly moving. Like the couture equivalent of Yo Yo Ma playing the Bach cello concertos. I guess the use of Moonlight Sonata (twice) in the show delivers the equivalent.

[@omnichic7407]

I love to hear a designers inspiration story

[@kyleminer4497]

this was fantastic.

[@TheKyleIcon]

ICON!

[@CarlaAmore]

i may not be able to afford a piece, but it is very very inspiring

[@orangefruit12]

Thom Browne is like the more conservative proper cousin of Tim Burton. If he made a wybie POV of Caroline the design would be fabulous.

[@canaldatete261]

Perfect ❤

[@crystalclear6660]

I always enjoy the story and reasoning behind a designer’s show even if I don’t like the clothes themselves. However, I loved the mermaid design on that white jacket.

[@user-ut1hy6vt6p]

Как атмосферно❤

[@andrewcastaneda301]

he is an insane person & I love him.

[@albertotorrini]

Visage + Debra = Perfection!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@brianaa96]

I like how the train headpiece at the end also resembles a lobster or shrimp which goes with the nautical theme

[@startyourbrandwithemily]

Love the suiting
