Phillipp Plein AW/23

Backstage during Milan Fashion Week.

“The biggest luxury for me is the ability to realize my dreams”. Staying true to the extravagant leather and studded creations that have been surrounding the brand since the early 2000s, Phillipp Plein introduced his current fall collection “Chrome Cowboy”. Each look in the show involves some sort of cowboy element particularly highlighted by the ever-present silver cowboy boots. Adorned with faux fur and denim, though the focus of this year’s runway show definitely lay on the sequinned elements integrated nearly everywhere. Every look could easily be traced back to this year’s theme, even spotted in the more modern looks of the show consisting of long coats and body suits. Fashion mayhem was delivered with its well-known assertive and radiant energy, as this diverged from every corner backstage of the show. It seemed to be the ongoing vibe everywhere you looked.
