The History of Philipp Plein

  • Philipp Plein may be the most hated man in fashion - but should that be case? People have come to know him for his over-the-top luxury lifestyle, and he's found himself in a handful of controversies (including one with Kanye West), but in this video we tackle the difficult question: does the fashion industry need someone like this? He has one of the craziest come up stories you'll ever hear and has no traditional background in fashion, but somehow he has amassed a dedicated following and a fashion empire worth millions. This is the history of Philipp Plein.

    Yeah I’m glad he exists just to parody the fashion world as a whole. He really embodies how much fashion/the rest of society is really just a pyramid scheme of riches/demonstrations of class and separation, without any of the transcendental pretence ‘understated’ high fashion brands try to come up with.
    The Kobe collection I feel like was his peak of that, because obviously he didn’t consciously mean disrespect, but in our society the need to demonstrate/boost your image is such a constant (even in times of grieving tragedies) that it obviously comes off as so hilariously insensitive.
    Usually celebrities or fashion brands would do that in an ‘understated’ way by posting their personal reaction, or publicising a donation or maybe dedicating a t shirt and boosting their PR in the process, but PP just takes it to 100 and makes a whole sparkly collection out of it with vehicles wrapped in his own name (seems like a South Park episode lol).
    He is the Trump of fashion imo, hope he continues showing how much of a commercial shitshow it is

    A lot of ppl don’t know that Ferrari is by invitation only. It does matter how rich or famous you are you can’t just buy one. Once you buy via invitation there is a huge contract you must sign. Some of the clauses are that you may not sell it to anyone else or use it promotionally. They actually can repossess the vehicle

    • @christopherfeatherley
      @christopherfeatherley หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I could explain for you:
      To sum it up, it has to do with copy right law and reputation. Luxury brands tend to take their reputation seriously, and will invest in all resources to protect their image.
      So, in regards to Philipp Plein's Instagram, you have to understand there are two separate entities: there's Philipp the person (founder), and there's Philip Plein (the brand). Both coexist together and there's a bit of a gray area, but just know, his Instagram is primarily to promote his brand PP (I'll be referring to it as PP from henceforth).
      Basically, while Philip (the person) may own his Ferrari, PP (the brand) doesn't have the rights or permission to use its image for anything that would make him money; this includes music videos, ad campaigns, etc. It's like if McDonald's bought a Burger King meal/burger (which anyone can do), and put a commercial of it next to a pile of cow turd. Sure, you can argue McDonald's can do whatever they want because they legally did purchase said burger. That's true. However, since it was clearly an attack on Burger King's reputation, and McDonald's didn't have permission to use their image/logo, Burger King can sue them for liability/damages. Returning back to PP's case, it's clear he was trying to promote his brand and associate the status of Ferrari with his lifestyle brand. To Ferrari, however, it was him putting a pile of garbage next to their product.
      Had Philipp posted his Ferrari on a *personal* account, there would be no issues. But since he was promoting his brand ans Ferrari's image was used in the campaign, without their knowledge or permission, it opened up to a law suit.
      Several other brands do this as well: Louis Vuitton is notorious for suing rap artists for using Louis Vuitton bags in their music videos. They always claim that the bags are fake and it they appear to be of poor quality, it would hurt their brand. Same with Nike. Nike is notorious for investing so much money in hiring attorneys to sue on their behalf 😅
      Hope this helps!

    @madlokovumngadi5159 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you for your fashion informative videos. I'm not a fan of PP's clothing and accessories as I find it to be too loud for me. However, I do think that Philipp Plein as a designer is too harshly judged and misjudged. For starters that lawsuit by Ferrari was not necessary at all. Secondly, for him to be accused of insensitivity for honoring Coby Braynt and his daughter, while there were many other commercial organizations doing the same but didn't get the backlash. People of color and models have been crying for under representation in the fashion industry and when he does something about it and do a show using only people of color in it, he still gets blacklash!!! Come on!! Here is what I think is happening. The fashion world monopolizers don't like PP's fashion esthetic and believe that he doesn't belong in that world, unfortunately the customers think otherwise because they spend millions year after year buying his products, so the fashion monopolizers keep on losing power over him. Also, if PP is a self-funded brand and keeps growing and making so much money without belonging to these big companies that always buy fashion labels, so they have total control of everything, this never sits well with "them", so they create bad publicity for PP.

It looks like the f*ck-up son of a rich family went on a coke binge and puked all inside the store. It’s an eyesore imo.
