Fall/Winter 2009 marks Browne’s most ‘pulled-back’ collection yet, according to the designer.. but as Tim Blanks at men.style points out, it’s important to keep this statement in context.. while there may be no outrageous ski hill pieces, there is still outfits that involve four items of the same pattern, overcoats paired with shorts, and the ever-present dwarf cap (toque?). regardless of how unwearable some of the full styles might seem, one or two pieces on it’s own would certainly be most welcome in my wardrobe.. call him ridiculous or a savant, there’s no question Browne is one of the most inventive and trend-setting/shattering designers in the US. more of my choice runways looks after the jump.
so good.
