Thom Browne directed and presented his campaign for the FW20 collection which offers a magical and mystical dream.
The surrealist designer tells a beautiful story of 8 men with animal features who come together and celebrate by eating the Thom Browne man as a dessert. The photography by Casper Sejersen took place at the Hôtel Salomon de Rothschild. Stephen Jones, a famous accessory designer, created and produced the masks for the 'animal' guests, which were made of wool on papier-mache.
The pieces shot for these collections are a mix of traditional fabrics with a more deconstructed form of sports origin. Animal printed wool tweed, Harris tweed, Prince of Wales, cashmere sweaters, patterned ties and knee-high socks, come together to amuse and disturb the viewer by creating fringed jackets and Bermuda shorts.
Accessories include some new feathered sports striped bags and a new shoe with a leather upper isolated by a section of galvanized rubber in the shape of a wingtip.
