THOM KROM (Hannover, Germany) Unisex Tops

Working as a trend scout/cool-hunter for international European fashion brands for a decade, German-born Thom Krom alias Thomas Kromik’s constant travels took him across the world’s fashion metropolises, allowing him to hone a great sensitivity for visual influence. In 2009, he founded his own label Thom Krom with the objective of creating premium basics that combine quality fabrics and understated detailing.

Thom Krom is based in Hannover, Germany and is being sold in over 20 countries worldwide. The pieces stand out for their unique aesthetic of original details, asymmetries, and an interesting “avant-garde shabby” look. Plus, they’re werable both as tops for men, as well as tunics/mini dresses for women :-)
