… and the winners are … couture begins with the silhouette in muslin. the thom browne 2024 couture collection celebrates these initial transcriptions. this dream-like phase of couture comes to life using natural, untreated muslin. the atelier’s rigorous approach elevates the test phase by way of extraordinary detail. the same cross-stitch present in all thom browne tailoring frames the muslin path in the center of a greige muslin-dressed salon at the musée des arts décoratifs. the backdrop: a wall with muslin columns echoing the institution’s belle époque architecture. the games begin at the center of the hall, as fourteen athletes compete for glory in tug-of-war. instructed by their coach, the athletes clear the arena for the collection… hallmarks of american sport are de-and-reconstructed, layered and cut, carefully assembled and molded into organic, voluminous shapes. the silhouette reaches down from strong shoulders and out from the empire waist. the intricate construction process and the bones of the garment are revealed: hook-and-eye closures, raw edges, and cross-stitching. embroidered grecian figures in sequins and bugle beads—the archer, javelinist, disc thrower, wrestler, and weightlifter—capture the vigor and grace of athletic movement. in a final celebratory sweep arrives the bride, the victor’s bouquet wrapped in her mermaid dress embroidered with mother-of-pearl artwork and beads from matte to iridescent. in gold, silver, and bronze with dégradé metallic foil and stacked bullion, the medalists take their places on the podium awaiting the ultimate prize. #thombrowne #thombrownecouture
