As the holiday season approaches, Thom Browne is bringing a playful twist to festive fashion. The designer has unveiled his Holiday 2024 collection through a whimsical campaign set aboard the “Thom Browne Elevator Express”—an imaginative journey through a re-envisioned office space.
Browne’s signature love for animals takes center stage in this lineup. Leather bag charms pay tribute to his dachshund, Hector, while baguette bags are crafted in the likeness of bunnies, sometimes showcased alongside their real-life counterparts. Tie bars cleverly mimic whales, dogs, pigs, and yes, more bunnies.
The collection offers more than just accessories. Cozy intarsia and Fair Isle sweaters capture the spirit of the season, complemented by soft camel trench coats and bell-sleeve shearling jackets that blend warmth with style. To fend off the winter chill, a selection of gloves, scarves, and hats made from luxurious ribbed cashmere rounds out the ensemble.
For those who prefer indoor festivities, perhaps with a warm drink by the fireplace, Browne has collaborated with the esteemed porcelain house Haviland to create a “Tea Time” set featuring his signature four-bar design.
This release marks a notable moment for Browne, who was appointed chairman of the Council of Fashion Designers of America earlier this year, signaling a new chapter in his influential career.
