The SS16 Milan Uomo Philipp Plein show was yet again a spectacle of smoke and sequins, featuring rap singer Tyga throwing down beats alongside daredevil dirtbikers and car racers.
Cars burned and crashed and fireworks exploded, and Philipp Plein never ceases to impress even the chicest of Milano’s elite.
Oh, and the fashion. Models strutted around the racetrack covered with broken-down cars spray painted silver and gold wearing the SS16 collection “Plein Punk.”
The designs, as most of Plein’s are, were youthful and fun, studded and ripped. Mainly black and white with a light embellishing of red, Plein gets his point accross with very little color, just funky, punky style.
Bulky studded high-top gym shoes, leather backpacks/duffles and hats plus sunglasses accompanied the looks. Cool eagle belt buckles were also applied to the shoes for a little extra flavor.
The bags were surprisingly understated and elegant, keeping the focus on the star-studded clothing designs. As usual, jackets ruled the runway, in the form of leather bomber, blazer and even cool vests.
Plein does it again with not only a fabulous night filled with entertainment, but a sexy, sultry collection for SS16.
