Philipp Plein will host his first runway show with a co-ed collection for Cruise 2018, during the upcoming Cannes Film Festival at his own opulent mansion, called ‘La Jungle du Roi’ (King of the Jungle in English). My Cannes villa is a place of tranquillity and inspiration for me. I enjoy spending time here and many of my ideas were conceived on these grounds, says the designer.

The show will also extend into an evening, for the launch of fashion capsule created by his close friend Alec Monopoly, who is a New York-based graffiti artist.
