This Friday, Phillip Lim will stage his first standalone menswear show. Explaining his decision to separate menswear from being shown with the womenswear, he explained “The women’s would snowball and kill everything in its way, so the men’s story wouldn’t get told. It was too chopped up. But the men’s collection is finally where I want it to be, so it’s time to show it. It’s time to stop ignoring half the world’s population.” (WWD)
