Thom Browne, a designer who is best known for the workmanship and his almost obsessive attention to details, has been honored the CFDA Menswear Designer of the Year Award in 2016, 2013 and 2006, the GQ Designer of the Year in 2008 and the Cooper Hewitt National Design Award in 2012.He began his business with five suits and with a small by-appointment-only shop in 2001 and introduced his ready-to-wear collection in 2003. His traditionally based hand-made suits have evolved into collections recognized by museums around the world including the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum, the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Fashion Museum in Bath.
In 2011, he teamed up with the LA-based luxury eyewear designer, Dita, to release unisex sunglasses styles inspired by the master architects, studio artists, industrial designers and professors of the 40s, 50s and 60s.
Thom Browne sunglasses offset innovative shapes with standout prints and precious materials: Japanese acetate, 12-karat gold, and titanium.
Designed with the detail and precision we've come to expect from Thom Browne, the collection is yet another glimpse into why the designer's popularity continues to explode.
