Philipp Plein Polarizes with a Whimsical Kobe Bryant FW20 Show in Milan

Even this we have to swallow. Designers often chop out questionable collections that may not always be 100% consistent. Such a collection might have been published by German designer Philipp Plein.

Last weekend, the fashion show took place in Milan. Plein showed a very eye-catching collection in the show, which probably many are still talking about now. The fatal accident of the basketball legend did not pass the 42-year-old by either. For this reason, Plein created a questionable homage to Kobe Bryant.

The entire collection was kept in the Lakers colours and decorated with Swarovski crystals. On social media, many believe that the designer is using the tragedy to sell his collection for more profit. The golden helicopter, a golden airplane, and even a golden yacht particularly attracted attention and they definitely underlined the bizarre collection.

Philipp Plein himself has not yet responded to the people’s reactions. He only reiterated that the proceeds from the capsule will be donated to the Mamba and Mambacita Sports Foundation.
