Remember That ‘TUX’ Wetsuit By Designer Thom Browne?

-

If you love high fashion and scuba diving, then you’ll probably remember American designer Thom Browne, who in 2017 created the ultimate accessory, a new wetsuit inspired by the classic tuxedo.

According to the designer:

“Sky. Sea. Sand. At the water’s edge we are presented with nature in lines and layers. It is a segmented geometry, resolute and definitive. And yet, from the intersection of these parts the horizon expands: a mystery, an optical trick, an apparent line. For a surfer the horizon is both beacon and curse, a signal of the next incoming set or harbinger of a day without motion. It is an enigma among constants.”

The wetsuit was a little on the expensive side, retailing at an impressive US$3,900/~£3,041 /~€ 3,330. Although if you have that kind of money to spare, the bad news is that it’s been sold out for a while!
