Kris Haigh, Vice President of Men’s Design, “I met you in New York many years ago.
“You never failed to bring an optimistic energy with you every time I saw you.
“We never know what people are really going through. I’ll use this as a reminder to ask people how they’re doing, even if they seem happy on the outside. RIP Jeff.”
Fashion writer Evan Ross Katz said he was left “heartbroken” after Thomas’ death.
And content creator Jeanine Amapola wrote: “Absolutely heartbroken. Miss you already.”
Republic Records’ Joe Carozza described Thomas’ smile as “contagious”.
He added, “Your infectious smile has always brought so much joy into my life.”
Thomas was also the founder and director of the consulting agency One Popsicle.
He had a huge social media presence with over 120,000 followers on Instagram.
Last week, Thomas shared a series of snaps that showed him posing in Madrid, Spain.
And he revealed he had the word “resilience” on his arm.
