New Concepts @NordstromMen launched Concept 009: Thom Browne

The ninth concept in Nordstrom’s New Concepts series has been announced as an exclusive Thom Brown collection. With over 30 styles across ready-to-wear, accessories and lifestyle pieces—priced anywhere from $110 to $3,500—the new line “was inspired by the spirit and achievement of the varsity athlete,” said Thom Brown. He also declared that the energy of university athletics was captured, and that the in-store experience mimics a collegiate locker room environment. Sam Lobban, Nordstrom’s VP of designer ready-to-wear and New Concepts said: “We have learned more about our menswear customer with each New Concept launch. What we are excited to discover with Thom Browne is how the concept of ‘suiting’ continues to evolve in the eyes of consumers.” After seeing many iterations of this concept on the runway, Lobban said they are taking the idea of combining traditional as well as unconventional tailoring to Nordstrom’s broader customer base. The wares will be available through May 3, and can be purchased on Nordstrom.com/NewConcepts or at Pacific Centre in Vancouver.

H&M’s extended collection, H&M Conscious Exclusive, is back for another season. This time around the wares are infused with glamour from the Golden Age of train travel, with timeless pieces and elevated classics on offer. “The design team felt [that a train] was wonderfully symbolic of H&M’s journey as a company towards circularity. We were inspired by [the 1920’s] Le Train Bleu and decadent creatives such as Jean Cocteau and Pablo Picasso hanging out at Villa Santo Sospir in Cap Ferrat,” says Ella Soccorsi, a designer at H&M. The gauzy day dresses and dreamy evening wear are born from a host of innovative sustainable practices. Deadstock fabrics from previous collections, in combination with Circulose (a natural material sourced from recycled textiles) and Renu (a quality recycled polyester) are the base of this collection, driving forward the Swedish fashion giant’s goal to only use recycled or sustainably sourced materials by 2030. Shop the H&M Conscious Exclusive Spring 2020 collection online and in select stores, starting March 26.
