Philipp Plein Spring/Summer 2014 Campaign
Spring/Summer 2014 campaign,Philipp Plein worked with Italian photographer Francesco Carrozzini for the shoot. Philipp Plein used all black models to pose for his campaign dressed in his black and white urban collection. Philipp also used all black models for his Spring Runway show as well. Alek Wek opened the show, while Liya Kebede closed it. Sadly many asked why he chose to do this. This is is how he answered.
“My message is about breaking down barriers and breaking the rules. Doing the unexpected and shaking people from their complacence, forcing people to face the future where old prejudices have no place. For example, the public expects to see pallid girls in high heels walking my show and I give them a fleet of black beauties in flats!

About the Author
Barbara Summers is the editor of the bestseller I Dream A World: Portraits of Black Women Who Changed America and author of a collection of short stories, Nouvelle Soul, and the novel The Price You Pay. Her own story as a model is one of many told in Black and Beautiful.
My wonderful, hard-working father used to call me Daughter #2. He and my mother had 4 girls before their one and only son arrived. We girls were born in Springfield, Mass. When the family moved to Hartford, Conn. my parents literally built our house. My beautiful mother – a Hunter College graduate – mixed the mortar, and my father – a Morehouse man – laid the bricks. Their passionate, productive partnership laid the foundation for my concept of how women and men should – and could – live together.
I went to the University of Pennsylvania, Yale, and the Sorbonne, where I promptly became a grad school dropout and a lifelong Francophile. In the surprising adventure that is my life, I have been a Ford fashion model, a world traveler, a teacher, a writer and editor, a lover, wife, and mother, a sister to several, a good friend to many. I define myself as an artist. Artists are charged with the special responsibility not just to speak truth but to sing it.
I believe:
*We are all related – literally.
*While politicians, terrorists, and maniacs of power strive mightily to prove otherwise, war is not the answer. Love is.
*Sing, and if you can’t sing, hum.
