Philipp Plein's punk theme has returned for the Philipp Plein Spring/Summer '16 line. This cool collection is an extension of the edgy inspiration that took over the designer's most recent menswear line.
Slogan badges, studs, leather and distressed fabric take over this rebellious collection. The color palette is kept monochromatic with a few red, olive green and silver pieces. Daywear is edgy and interesting with leather pants coated in reptile skin as well as smart blazers decorated with silver studs along the lapel.
The Philipp Plein Spring/Summer '16 collection also offers a wide range of sultry evening dresses. A highlight of this collection is a silver floor-length fitted gown with thigh-high slits as well as a slit going up the torso and bust.
