A little quote:

"Also, after his fantastic show in Florence a couple of months ago, Browne says he picked up ten new stores in Europe and Japan. The designer added that wholesale business as of January was up 117 percent."


Enjoy some ankle, bitches.

you may be entirely right. At least he gave some numbers to back it up a little.

this is like the Mike Piazza press conference to announce that he is NOT gay.

I've been hearing the rumor that he is going under for about a year now. I asked an accquaintence of mine who at the Thom Browne store and he said "No!".

I just bought my first Black Fleece OCBDs. I'm sure that will help.

Is he doing a push into China? I've seen a lot of men with cropped trousers recently.

As opposed to rumors spread on the Interwebz, often by people who have no actual exposure to the line?

I blame the Japanese though I haven't seen a cropped trouser yet. Plenty of overly long ones though!

You need to hang in Beijing more. In my circles, trousers are short, cuffed, and usually pink.
