Hope you enjoy!

So beautiful ! Elegant cuts and smart details. Thank you.

Unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed by this release. I was expecting streamlined and minimalist, but these designs felt rather uninspired to me. Just my personal opinion, of course. I enjoyed your review! ❤

After Iman’s comments I cannot support. I never knew Phoebe was upset that she would have to be forced to hire Black models. She doesn’t deserve my money. Have fun y’all.

I love Phoebe’s work at Celine. I was excited to see her own brand and frankly a lot of the designs are not new. The price is clearly there to weed out the “common” consumers and it’s clear to all that this is reserved only for the affluent. I see a lot of people raving about the high quality. how can you tell? Have you touched/feel the products? One thing I do have to applaud is the marketing strategy. Having the really limited quantity so half the products are sold out within a couple of hours is genius! It’ll feed on people’s desire to be part of an elite group and in the iykyk club and creates a frenzy for many to want to score items from the brand. I think it’s great that she is back in the game but for me, I’ll just admire from afar.

Nothing I'm dying to buy... nothing stand out, I guess I just saved thousands😊

[aokiQ]

I agree! I’m so underwhelmed !
The bags are so overpriced for what it is, so are the clothes, the materials they used it’s not worth the price at all.
But I’m kinda feeling relieved 😌 my money is safe for now 😅😂

Recently found out she felt "forced" when it came to hiring non-white models. Disappointing and won't be buying her new label. Don't have to be a minority to be offended by that. I believe Iman.

Can’t wait to check out her debut collection! Thank you for bringing this to our attention!!! ❤

[margaretbrett]

Great video. Interesting collection, the brooch 😂So informative at the end ❤

I was very underwhelmed with this debut collection, especially at such a high price point.

[alexfarrell]

People are noting the quality and I just feel like we live on different planets? I saw 100% viscose? That 5k mum necklace is gold plated?

[Mia-spjc]

The outer wear offerings are outstanding🌹 However, she is missing a must-have bag. TY, for this detailed assessment 🌹

[emiliabolsas]

I love the coats, like the loafers and some of the cuts and angles but I’m with you on the overall “meh.” Interesting that the bag strap clasps are the same as her original ones for Celine. I imagine the “sold out” is due to collectors as well as reflecting a desire to support her return. May she find her footing with future seasons.

As someone who didn't know who Philo was before she left Celine and is pretty neutral on her, I find it perplexing that some people comment that they're not all that excited about this new collection but want to support her new launch. It makes me think that we are all too eager to follow, like sheep. I only saw a few headlines about her collection from fashion publications, and they were pretty positive. My opinion is, let them have it! I agree that it is kind of odd and overpriced. I guess that I have no real designer brand loyalty. We should all just buy what we like and not feel compelled to support any one (highly compensated) designer, possibly to our own detriment! Great review! ❤

i was looking at the celine box bag for a while now and interestingly it is no longer available in the celine US website when i checked yesterday

[iamjulia]

So much anticipation but when I go to her website, I’m like huh？underwhelmed for sure.. Her collection is not cheap but quite a few designs are sold out! Not a fan for sure.. it seems like she is just using old designs.. and give a little spin.. I feel meh. 😮

[rosecolouredglasses]

I think she achieved her goals. The pieces she made are pretty timeless. I can't put a finger on them if they were made in the 90s, 2000s, 2010s or now.

[FrenchFifi]

Agree with all of your reviews, wanted to be excited about fresh designs but not necessarily inspiring me:( I really wanted to like the lace up heels, I pictured them with black tights and skirt, etc. Sadly the design is just a smidge off for me. But it is the first collection so let’s see how she refines her designs. Thanks for the quick review!

[katrinapineda]

To me the bags look way too much like drafts of Old Celine.. just more detailed and expensive to make like the pipings vs the raw cut of her Celine cabas. As if she had frustrations over trashed designs at Celine and brought them out for her own brand. But still, the bags don't look 8k expensive 🥶

[bingkosaurus]

Totally agree with you. Love the high turtle neck top. But the bags, nothing really caught my eye. I dislike the lobster clasps on the white/brown bag, look cheap to me
