Grosgrain Fridays

I love/hate visible branding. Overdone, it's gauche, but over-gauche can be chic. And vice-versa. Thom Browne does it beautifully.

I like it. Generally I am completely opposed to wearing anything with a huge brand on it. I don't want to pay to be a walking advertisement. This little flair by TB is real cool though. Makes me thing it might bee cool to stitch a little color here and there to provide a little flash.
