Saks Fifth Avenue and Thom Browne recently unveiled an exclusive California-inspired capsule collection. Available on Saks.com and select Saks Fifth Avenue stores, the capsule features ready-to-wear garments, footwear, and handbags, reimagining iconic silhouettes from the Thom Browne archive and recreated in new fabrications and vibrant colorways.
Notably, a new tweed fabric was developed exclusively for this collaboration, inspired by the lace ribbon tweed first introduced for the brand’s Fall 2018 Runway collection. The intricate fabric consists of 13 different yarns, and was handcrafted by a small team of skilled artisans at ACT3, a fabric manufacturer located in the Jurançon region of Southern France.
The collection consists of uniform tailoring, polo shirts, cropped varsity jackets and miniskirts, as well as iconic accessories, including the Mrs. Thom handbag, the Hector baguette handbag and pebble grain brogue heels.
“We are thrilled to partner with Thom Browne to launch this exclusive capsule and bring the collaboration to life across the Saks Fifth Avenue ecosystem,” said Tracy Margolies, chief merchandising officer, Saks.
Browne and Saks’ fashion director Roopal Patel will host a virtual event on April 5 to offer viewers an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the brand’s evolution over the past two decades.
