Thom Browne Resort 2026 Collection
The trend forecasters are predicting a prep revival. The all-American look, born of mid-century country clubs and popularized by 1980s movies, seems to be in the air again. A 17-year-old I know sets out each weekend to shop for vintage polo shirts, and Luca Guadagnino is filming a new version of the Bret Easton Ellis novel, American Psycho. That about synthesizes it. If prep does make a comeback on the runways in the coming weeks, it wouldn't surprise Thom Browne. 'I'm always in that world because I love the timelessness of it and the ease,' he says. 'I like the idea of real clothes being worn in real ways, and not clothing that's too precious. And talk about sustainability—you can wear these things forever.' Just don't call it a passing fad. The Thom Browne crests that appear on jackets and coats in his new collections for women and men paint a picture of the prep lifestyle. In their four quadrants are embroidered tennis racquets, a swimmer, an anchor, and 1965, the year Browne was born. Parts of the collections could find their way to country clubs and swimming pool parties, things like an exceptional handknit argyle cardigan, a neat rain jacket in a green technical cordura fabric, any of the bermuda shorts. The jeans, Browne was careful to point out, are made with selvedge denim in the best denim factory in Japan—the only people more obsessive about American style than Browne may be the Japanese; they even have a name for it, Amekaji. But even as he builds out the TB repertoire, Browne is as devoted to and meticulous about tailoring as ever, in particular the gray suit, but also his custom plaid tweeds and silk mogadors. Staying on theme, a gray skirt suit was topped by a maillot-shaped corset, and taking it to only-for-superfans extremes, other suits were intarsia'd or embroidered with trompe l'oeil effect bikinis. In other news, it's the 10th anniversary of the Hector bag, so you'll see many iterations of the dog-shaped bag here. The palladian window prints and embroideries are a nod to Browne's new project, the renovation of an 18th century house in upstate New York that is now underway.

To Look with Love
AG: Your work often revolves around the act of seeing and being seen. How do you understand this dynamic—especially in photography—where the camera can be both a tool of intimacy and of distance? JTD: The idea of seeing and being seen is a significant part of my work. There is immense power in letting yourself be fully seen by another person—it's a heightened form of intimacy. Through photography, I am able to make space for others to be seen as they are, which can be particularly important for queer and trans people, as we are not often represented in the mainstream. My photographs are also very personal and speak to the way I see myself and others. Harry and Janie, 2024 AG: In an era saturated with images, what does it mean for you to create portraits that invite slowness, presence, and reciprocity? JTD: With my work, I aim to slow down, both while photographing and in the exhibition space. When I'm making a portrait, I work slowly and collaboratively, creating a framework in which a real emotional exchange can take place between me and the subject. In the exhibition space, I invite viewers to spend time, take a long look, and reflect on their own identities and lives through the act of engaging in moments of intimacy with others.

Meet The Man Who Has Drunk Beer In 3,806 Breweries
Chris O'Leary at Thirty Eight O Six Brewing, the 3,806th brewery he has drunk beer in. Chris O'Leary Chris O'Leary has kept track of the breweries he has drunk beer in since 2003. 'But I really started dedicating my time to keeping a list in 2011, when I challenged myself to visit 30 breweries in 30 days,' said O'Leary in a telephone interview. Spoiler alert: he met that challenge. By now, O'Leary has visited breweries in all 50 US states—finishing with Mississippi in 2018—and in 33 countries on five continents. In order for O'Leary to count a brewery, two conditions must be met: If a brewery has more than one location and O'Leary visits more than one, those can each count, but only if each location brews beer and he drinks a beer brewed at each one. And if a brewery closes, but another business opens in that same place, he can count it again if he goes back and has another beer made by the new brewery. Twice, he has visited the same physical location three times to count three breweries: in Portland, Oregon, The Commons became Modern Times Beer and is now Living Haus Beer, and in Providence, Rhode Island, Long Live Beerworks outgrew their location, which became Beer On Earth and now is Origin Beer Project. Hunting down breweries to visit has become a sport for O'Leary. He regularly travels for work as a media strategist for an advertising agency, which often allows visits to breweries in new locales. But that also arms him with an abundance of airline miles—he has Platinum Medallion status and is a Million Miler with Delta Air Lines—which he uses to travel even more. O'Leary also achieved an amount of fame ten years ago when he was the only passenger on board a flight from Cleveland, Ohio to New York City. In addition to his job in advertising, O'Leary writes Brew York, a New York City beer blog and an associated newsletter that talks about his travels beyond New York City. On June 19, 2025, O'Leary drank a beer at Thirty Eight O Six Brewing, in Berwick, Australia, the 3,806th brewery he has drunk beer in. The milestone was months in planning. By looking at the rate he typically visits breweries, upcoming travel plans and going to or not going to breweries that are readily available to him, he was able to ensure the apropos brewery visit. It wasn't easy. 'I was planning to visit five breweries in New Jersey a few days ago,' said O'Leary. 'I was locking my door when the key broke inside the lock.' That set O'Leary back, with zero breweries visited that day. Shortly thereafter, he was in Buffalo, New York for a friend's wedding. He was only able to visit three breweries on that trip, because it was the Memorial Day long weekend and many breweries he had planned to visit were closed. But in any sport, world-class athletes find a way to persevere. And today, O'Leary sipped victory nectar, Thirty Eight O Six NEIPA. To put that achievement in perspective, Max Finnance, America's most credentialed beer judge, a BJCP Grand Master And Master Cicerone and who works full-time in the beer industry, has only visited 998 breweries, he confirmed via email. And John Holl, the podcast host, publisher and the voice of beer in America, who travels the world visiting breweries as his full-time job, has only visited 2,638 breweries, also confirmed via email. 'I first got into beer when I lived for a year and a half in Burlington, Vermont,' said O'Leary. That was 2004 to 2006 and O'Leary would regularly visit local breweries such as Magic Hat Brewing and Long Trail Brewing that had established themselves as local stalwarts, and the Alchemist, which opened while O'Leary lived in Burlington and has since gone on to become a darling of the craft beer world. 'A lot was happening in breweries at the time,' he says. 'It was a good time to enjoy on-premise beer.' 'In November 2011, I was on a work trip to Portland, Oregon,' recalled O'Leary. 'I had started travelling more for work and I realized I could visit 30 breweries in 30 days, so I started a list using the notes app on my phone.' In all of 2011, O'Leary visited 52 breweries, including the 30 breweries he did end up visiting in 30 days. He mentally went back through his prior travels and brewery visits to create the list of 75 breweries he had visited to that point. In 2012, he added 54 more breweries to the list and in 2013, 121 more. Then he thought, 'I'm going to dedicate more of my time to this,' and indeed he did: 'I would take a beer trip every year and try to hit a few breweries. After that, it took on a life of its own,' says O'Leary. 'It helped that I was often traveling to Denver, Portland and Seattle for work, cities with substantial beer scenes.' The sheer number of breweries O'Leary has visited is impressive, but he also makes a sport of visiting appropriate breweries: O'Leary also seeks out 'extreme' breweries. When asked if he could teleport to any brewery in the world, O'Leary is quick to respond. But surprisingly, the answer is not one he has yet to check off his list. Instead, he says, 'I'd go to Russian River Brewing in Santa Rosa, California. It was brewery #641 for me. That's a place that will never get old for me.'
