Philippe Model Launches First RTW Collection This Fall

May 24, 2024

Tremblez bourgeois! These words scream in bright red graffiti from a pristine Parisian wall. Whether the bourgeoisie will actually tremble remains to be seen, but the message is clear: Philippe Model Paris is entering a new era. Under the leadership of Finnish designer Tuomas Merikoski, who has long made Paris his creative home, the brand is introducing its very first Ready-to-Wear (RTW) collection this fall.

Paris, the city of contrasts, where classic elegance goes hand in hand with multicultural energy, serves as the inspiration for this new collection. Merikoski brings a dynamic mix of street culture and refined Parisian chic to Philippe Model. The new collection reflects a city full of artists, breakdancers, skaters, and stylish passersby, each with their own unique way of dressing and self-expression.

The collection, which includes both men's and women's fashion, offers a postmodern interpretation of classic styles. Think bold Big MODEL sneakers that make a statement, paired with tailored garments and knitwear that blur gender boundaries. While the shapes may seem ordinary at first glance, they surprise with exaggerated volumes and unexpected finishes. A touch of imperfection and rugged details give the pieces a lively and unpolished look. Precious materials are treated in a casual manner, creating a playful and relaxed vibe.
