                     The bee motif, however, wasn’t borrowed from an animated movie. “Napoleon actually stayed here [at the Palazzo] for three months,” Browne told me, gesturing around to the gold-trimmed doors and marble columns. “So [I was] using the bee, which was his motif, as a little bit of the bug reference as well.”

                     But it wasn’t all insects and gardening tools. The 58-look collection—Browne’s first dedicated menswear show since spring 2023—was full of TB signatures. Most of the bottoms were shorts, alongside a few suit trousers and slim pants—some in lemon yellow, others with floral embroidery creeping up the thigh. For a spring collection, the looks were aggressively layered—one (presumably overheating) model wore a shirt under a sweater vest under a blazer under a jacket—with colors, patterns, and textures all clashing.

                    <span style="word-break: break-word; font-size: 15px;">
                     There were a few sportier pieces, too: an icy Madras-print sleeveless windbreaker, as well as split-tone engineered jackets. Browne’s familiar pleated kilts still reigned supreme—both Jamie Campbell Bower and Tramell Tillman gamely wore theirs in the front row—but new twists on the skirt, with longer column and pencil shapes, also popped up on the runway. Our thoughts and prayers to the guest wearing the bedazzled alien mask from spring 2026, who was surely risking some sort of heat stroke.

                     While the show marked the first time Thom Browne’s mainline had shown in Milan (the designer presented collections for Moncler Gamme Blue here in 2017), the 60-year-old Pennsylvania native is no stranger to the city. “Milan is a second home for me, so it's always nice to be here,” he said. “I’m here so often with the collections.”

                     That sort of homecoming deserved a big bonanza finale. And we got one: Here came the groom. In a white short suit with a cropped cricket vest underneath, he wore a cape of tulle like a bridal veil, and a net hat swarmed with beaded bees. This was a “reference to the frog and the princess story,” said Browne, referring to Disney’s 2009 film
