Thom Browne Nods to 1920s and 1930s Sportswear for High Summer Collection

Thom Browne is leaning into ’20s and ’30s sportswear for his latest collection.

The American designer released his 2024 high summer collection on Tuesday, offering men’s and women’s styles that leverage Browne’s signature tailoring and marries it with the nostalgia of the time period.

For accessories, the collection offers cotton twill baseball caps, cat-eye sunglasses, spazzolato pleated loafers and canvas sneakers, also all in white.

The collection was introduced during Browne’s fall 2024 couture show on June 24 in Paris, which took place at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs.
