Curry Barker has had a quick ascension to stardom following the debut of his hit horror flick Obsession, and continuing that pathway, the director just sat front row at Thom Browne.
Thom Browne’s Spring 2027 ready-to-wear show took place on Monday in Milan, where the director sat amongst the likes of Charlie Hall, Jamie Campbell Bower, Joe Burrow and Olivia Cooke.
Barker celebrated the show on Instagram, where he shared a photo of himself in an all-white ensemble and a second shot of him sitting front row at the show. He wrote, “48 hrs in Milan. Congrats on an incredible show @thombrowne!”
His attendance came just a few mere days after The Hollywood Reporter exclusively revealed that his next film has landed at Universal Film Group and Blumhouse Atomic Monster, in what is described as an eight-figure deal. Barker already has already shot his second feature, Anything But Ghosts, which he wrote, directed and stars in, with his third upcoming film serving as the first project in his orbit following the success of Obsession.
The movie became Focus Features’ highest-grossing release of all time; Obsession also notably became the first movie since 1982’s E.T.: The Extraterrestrial to increase in its second and third weekends after releasing. It was made independently for $750,000 as Focus acquired the project out of Toronto International Film Festival for around $15 million.
