7 Crazy Thom Browne Spring 2015 Looks Helena Bonham Carter Should Wear Immediately
It's time for a fashionable wakeup call: Helena Bonham Carter isn't getting any less idiosyncratic with age, and neither is her wardrobe. Mrs. Tim Burton (in theory if not in name), is infamous for her deliberately outré style. The Fight Club and Alice in Wonderland actress has hit the red carpet in clothing that appears to be falling apart at the seams, clothing that looks like it belongs on her Corpse Bride character, and perhaps most significantly, burlesque-style clothing that looks like it belongs in an 18th century house of ill repute. Luckily, designer Thom Browne appears to have had Bonham Carter in mind while designing his last, where-on-earth-do-I-wear-this collection. The designer and Bonham Carter have a simpatico relationship in terms of taste, but Browne's Spring/Summer 2015 collection literally looks like it belongs in Wonderland with Bonham Carter's Red Queen. Here are the top nine kookiest looks from the collection which Bonham Carter should snap up for her eccentric wardrobe (eccentric artistic partner not included).

Some forget Helena Bonham Carter’s more ladylike inclinations, but the actress does have her moments of more modest style. This look is the best of both worlds: mildly idiosyncratic and prim all at once.

I am actually quite shocked this hat didn’t appear in Alice in Wonderland. Perhaps it will make an appearance on Bonham Carter in the tale’s next installment, Through The Looking Glass.

Is it just me, or does the model wearing this feathered concoction actually look like Helena Bonham Carter? And I’m certain the actress already owns those sunnies.

If nothing else, the tiny hat accenting this ensemble belongs on Bonham Carter. Somewhere, Amy Poehler is gleefully telling someone that she came up with the idea first.

Bonham Carter has a way of creating ensembles that look like they could be made for the Queen Mother in a quirky alternate universe, which is exactly what this outfit evokes.

Bonham Carter likely wouldn’t be caught in a plain jane suit if her life depended on it, but this blocky, abstract-painterly ensemble might just be unorthodox enough for her taste.
