Philipp Plein was studying law when he began designing furniture for family and friends. Soon his designs drew attention from experts within the interior design industry and in 1998, the company PHILIPP PLEIN was founded in Münich, Germany.<ref>http://www.famousfashiondesigners.org/philipp-plein</ref>
Upon completion of the [[Schule Schloss Salem|Gymnasium Schloss Salem]] [[boarding school]] on [[Lake Constance]], he studied at the Friedrich-Alexander University in Erlangen law. Plein's strong interest in art, architecture and foreign cultures was shaped early in life through the extensive travels of his family, providing exposure as a child to the world's most important museums and cultural exhibits.

To avoid wasting any material, Plein started making bags and accessories from the leftover exotic leathers, which were sold alongside his design pieces at trade fairs. In 2003 the 25 year -old entrepreneur was asked to design a lounge at the German trade fair CPD Dusseldorf, for Moet & Chandon, where he was also allowed to sell his accessories. In one day he made over € 100.000. The law degree was dropped, as was the furniture, and the fashion brand was born a year later in 2004.<ref>Esquire Middle East July 2014</ref>

After two years of selling furniture he gave up his law studies to concentrate on his own company.


Philipp Plein had his final breakthrough in 2003 when he started to design a lounge at the German trade fair CPD Düsseldorf for [[Moët & Chandon]] in return for his work he was allowed to sell his fashion collection at the trade fair.

The highlight of his first collections were vintage military jackets which he embroidered [[Swarovski]] skulls and sold them at the [[Maison et Objet]] in Paris which took place at the same time as the Prêt-à-Porter tradefair thus allowing him to promote his fashion collection since the city was full of fashion people.<ref>Article about Philipp Pleins life http://www.welt.de/print/die_welt/wirtschaft/article13687000/Ein-Jurist-zieht-die-Schickeria-an.html</ref>
