Fashion career profile

Sam Lobban

Sam Lobban is the British fashion executive who became Chief Executive Officer of Thom Browne in September 2025. He joined from Nordstrom, where he spent seven years in designer merchandising and broader apparel leadership, most recently as Executive Vice President and General Merchandising Manager for Apparel & Designer. Earlier, he worked on the founding team of Mr Porter, contributing to exclusive collaborations and category development, and began his career in men’s buying and merchandising at Selfridges. At Thom Browne, Lobban’s executive role is distinct from Thom Browne’s continuing position as Founder and Chief Creative Officer. The directory keeps that division clear: operating and commercial leadership are not treated as creative authorship, and Zegna Group reporting is not recast as Thom Browne-only financial performance.
