Thom Browne is best known for his “shrunken” grey suits that play with proportions. By pairing a tight fitting jacket with shorts, Browne challenges the “masculinity” of the suit and infuses it with the look of adolescent school uniforms. The inclusion of an oversized handbag further bends gender lines. LeBron James wore a version of this suit during the 2018 NBA playoffs.
