Monster Trucks Take Philipp Plein’s Spring/Summer 2020 Show

For the label’s 20th anniversary, Philipp Plein staged a cinematic post-apocalyptic show in Milan for its Spring/Summer 2020 collection. Embodying a blockbuster rock star mentality, the presentation was an attack on the senses with elaborate stage techniques including monster trucks and fireworks that highlighted the appeal of the pieces.

 

A bulk of the looks featured iconic band logos (some models even had KISS facepaint on) bringing classic rock iconography together with a modern new wave aesthetic. The men’s looks featured studded biker jackets, re-imagined versions of a classic suit, classic punk hoodies, and high top sneakers. The designer’s own logo was prevalently featured, printed on many of the garments along with flame designs and metallic animal prints. Chains, spiked hardware, and other metallic embellishments further drove the theme home.

Saint Laurent’s Spring ’20 is for the Bohemian Rockstar

Marrakech and major ’70s influences continue to inform the majority of Anthony Vaccarello‘s collections at Saint Laurent since he took over the French label in 2016. For Spring 2020, in a beachside show set in Malibu which was attended by recent brand ambassador Keanu Reeves and our fall ’18 cover star Lakeith Stanfield, the show was a fitting mix of stage glam with coastal nonchalance.

 

The collection was a love letter to the Rolling Stones beguiling frontman Mick Jagger — particularly the band’s prolific theatrical Tour of the Americas ’75 which featured a dragon that breathed confetti and a giant inflatable penis in addition to the performer’s regular flamboyance. The iconic singer’s influence was interpreted quite literally at times, with glittery suits, velvet trousers, button-down shirts left billowy and open, and a general sense of glam rock androgyny that has become a dependable strength and staple to the label. But there was an overall sense of insouciance that was more post-show than stagewear. A lot of this seemed to be a result of the designer’s signature skin-tight tailoring being dilated just a little bit and a range of exaggerated harem-like pants that closed out the presentation.
