3.1 Phillip Lim BAGS

Phillip Lim launched his label 3.1 Phillip Lim in 2005 with cofounder Wen Zhou when both were just 31 years old, naming it for their age. The New York–based designer counts his city as his muse, but the optimistic, laidback attitude of his native California informs his sophisticated yet approachable designs. With the urbanite in mind, the label offers a streamlined selection of elevated staples cut into structured and simultaneously fluid silhouettes, all crafted from stunning, tried-and-tested fabrics. Ready-to-wear, handbags, and footwear combine an everyday practicality with slick aesthetics and the occasional unexpected pattern or color treatment. Mature but definitely bold, 3.1 Phillip Lim’s womenswear offer is a celebration of confident, individual dressing.
