Discover the dramatic genius of the Thom Browne Couture Fall/Winter 2023 collection unveiled at the grand Paris Opera House for Haute Couture Week. With an incredible backdrop, which mirrored the Opera space and filled with countless human cutouts, model Alek Wek emerged onto the stage and took her seat on suitcases carefully placed on the runway — the perfect spot to witness the “performance” of the season.
A Thom Browne collection wouldn’t be the same without gray, but for this season was elegantly accented with gold. Suited tailoring morphed into unique silhouettes such as voluminous shoulders while jackets transformed into skirts, patchwork and layers were added throughout, beautiful bell hats and even pigeon head pieces strutted onto the runway, while Victorian-esque gowns were dramatic additions to the collection.
This was truly a masterful collection befitting the venue.
