THOM BROWNE
STYLEMAKER OF THE YEAR
When people talk about the renaissance of American menswear, they’re really talking about Thom Browne. His trademark short pants (cut around three or four inches above the ankle) telegraph a certain kind of cred among the cognoscenti while still being firmly rooted in the principles of classic tailoring. “He’s made our eye adjust, and that’s a very hard thing to do in men’s fashion,” says Tommy Fazio, men’s fashion director at Bergdorf Goodman. “He’s really influenced the future of men’s fashion, and his preciseness and consistency and his tailoring is what has made him so strong right now.”
