The Eagle has landed—at Paris Fashion Week, that is. From a planet far, far away comes the newest Thom Browne collection: a reinterpretation of the most classic tailored shapes and lines through the eyes of the observing aliens, who, despite their inhumanness, carry the same reverence for crisp tailoring that has long defined the brand.

From a brand that has become well-lauded for reinventing the workwear uniform comes an extraterrestrial interpolation. Aliens have invaded the design room of Thom Browne, bringing bold, novel silhouettes, bright color-blocking, and visual illusions, leaving audiences wondering what is real and what might just be a hologram. 

​In an era when humanity edges closer to understanding what life beyond Earth might look like—or want from us—envisioning these beings becomes an act of both imagination and reflection. How would an extraterrestrial function—or expect humans to? Alien motifs have long stood in for our fear of the unknown, a fear certainly pulsing beneath our ever-changing world. Thom Browne’s collection, in turn, asks audiences to consider the new world forming before our eyes—and who, or what, will belong to it.

Surreal proportions paraded down the runway, reframing the human form in inventive and uncanny ways. These figures were humanoid, yet distinctly not human—designed from an otherworldly vantage point. The uncanny pairings and exaggerated shapes spoke to the brand’s relentless innovation, retooling today’s uniform for the next frontier, somewhere deep in the outer reaches of space.

Many otherworldly talents in fashion, music, and Hollywood gathered to witness Browne’s cosmic spectacle. Anna Wintour, Chloe Malle, Law Roach, Rachel Zegler, FKA Twigs, Davido, Eiza González, and more attended this glimpse into the future. In Browne’s universe, the line between fantasy and reality dissolves—reminding us that fashion, like space, is an endless frontier for exploration.
