    I found this t-shirt yesterday at a local thrift store. I knew who Philip Plein was - I found a Plein hoodie there before that sold on eBay for just over $100.
    My question - I know Plein started out making luxurious dog beds before switching to designing clothes, and this is the only t-shirt I can find with Pleins Pets on it - is this an early piece by him? Or a limited edition? Or (please no!) a copy?
    Thank you for any help.

    The internet says the "Plein Pets" sub-brand dates to FW 2019 and was used on limited editions.

    I hope everyone looks at the link. There are the most scrumptious clothes I've ever seen! My favorite men's outfit costs about $6,000 +tax and shipping but it is so awesome. I love how he matches everything in the outfit down to the shoes. Head to toe perfection. But I am too old to wear this type of clothing and all my money goes to healthcare, not designer clothes.

    Is it because Switzerland is spelled incorrectly? At least it looks like it to me, but maybe not to a Swiss person. On that black patch it looks like Swezerland.

    The information came from AI. "FW" is an abbreviation for "Fall Winter", meaning the designer's fashion collection for that season. Is Switzerland mis-spelled? i do notice that the Phillip Plein logos on the neck band and label don't appear to be consistent. That's an important red flag. This is the correct logo from the brand's web site. The logo's on your tee shirt should match it exactly.
