The Jean//phillip Spring/Summer 2015 menswear collection recently took to the stage during Copenhagen Fashion Week. "The signature of Jean//phillip is edgy and minimalistic, with a slim cut" and embodies a dark feeling of ambiguity and power.
The label redefines urban streetwear by mixing loose silhouettes with classic tailoring and couture-like craftsmanship. The result is a striking and streamlined collection of modern youth apparel.
This menswear collection looked to apocalyptic and distopic imagery for reference. Its models took to the stage in black, white and red ensembles that ranged from solid pairings to printed statement pieces. These looks were paired with stretched leather masks that disguised their faces.
These masks were powerful yet sinister in their look and blurred the lines between a bondage and superhero inspiration.
