In the middle of Paris Fashion Week, the focus of attention was on a designer who was nowhere near the runway; she wasn’t even in the city. It was on Instagram that Phoebe Philo announced that the second collection of her clothes and accessories would drop on March 7.
The selection, some of which is modeled by the Oscar-nominated German actress Sandra Hüller, includes $5,200 black leather jeans, a $2,000 silk scarf that doubles as a neck pillow, $900 ballet flats, and a textured fit-and-flare coat in pastel pink that’s too expensive to list on the site. It skews seasonless, which might be the most fiscally considerate aspect of the entire collection. The more you wear it, the less the cost stings.
