Thom Browne’s menswear collection for Fall Winter 2014 is both sartorial and satirical, to say the least. Ragged edge plaids, giant fat silhouette suits and autumnal leaf camo face make-up were topped off, literally by Stephen Jones, as they walked down the runway by unusual grey flannel and plaid hats and headgear in the shapes of animals.

Rabbits as top hats, masks, caps and eyepatches, elephant heads, badger and frog caps, pinstripe bowlers as bears, hunting caps with antlers, driving caps with eyes and cage-like construction. There’s even a Bear with a salmon in its mouth as a hat. Designed by Browne, the hats were made with the help of well-known milliner Stephen Jones.

The rest of the collection is absolutely wild, and certainly unflattering. Here’s just a peek:
