The Plein Spring/Summer 2010 Collection
Marissa Liu — December 22, 2009 — Fashion
For the Plein Spring/Summer 2010 collection the designers of the Japanese brand asked themselves how they pictured an anarchist cowboy would dress. Though, I believe you have to look no further than a Sergio Leon film Plein’s anarchist cowboy is a lot more refined and urban.
The collection has a neutral color palette, featuring a lot of greys and black. The minimalistic nature of the Plein Spring/Summer 2010 collection belies a structural component that adds interest to the individual garments.
