Ariana Grande embodied Glinda in a playful yet sophisticated Thom Browne ensemble that balanced whimsy with high fashion. She wore a strapless dress paired with a silk ghazar capelet, embodying a theatrical and polished aesthetic perfect for the premiere of Wicked.

At the Challengers press tour, Zendaya charmed in a custom Thom Browne creation that drew inspiration from tenniscore. Perhaps to cater to the movie’s Gen-Z audience, the halter-neck dress flawlessly incorporated trendy elements, such as a drop-waist, bows and mesh inserts for an athletic touch, along with Browne’s signature pleats and blue and red detailing.

At the 2023 Met Gala, Jenna Ortega wore a custom Thom Browne cropped jacket and reconstructed coat draped skirt in black chiffon tweed, adorned with delicate lacing and 1,000 appliquéd black crystals. A black corset dress with lacing and gold chains, paired with a black silk organza shirt and faille tie, completed the look, reflecting the year’s theme of “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty”.

Gigi Hadid was in bloom wearing Thom Browne at the 2024 Met Gala. The sculptural ensemble showcased the best that the designer can offer: precision tailoring, exaggerated hips and masterful detailing. On his Instagram, the designer shared that 70 people worked on the dress, inspired by the year’s theme, “Garden of Time”.

Serena Williams looked regal in a custom corset gown by Thom Browne at the 2023 CFDA Awards. The look included a black satin stole hand-embroidered with pearls. 

Erykah Badu’s Thom Browne look at the 2024 CFDA Awards was a masterclass in individuality. Badu wore a layered, deconstructed suit in Thom Browne’s signature style, consisting of an hourglass chesterfield sportcoat, an embroidered cardigan, a pleated skirt and trousers. The ensemble was crafted from black cashmere, mohair, wool flannel and silk faille, combining rich textures with classic menswear elements.

Cynthia Erivo’s viral Thom Browne ensemble at the Wicked Mexico premiere wasn’t just a red carpet moment; it was a performance in itself. The structured corset was hand-embroidered with 240,000 multicolored crystals, sequins and beads. The highlight of the look is a cropped tailored jacket with sculptured gloves sticking up from the shoulders, mirroring Erivo’s trademark long nails.
