'(10 Sep 2017) PHILIPP PLEIN HOSTS \'FETISH FAIRYTALE\' RUNWAY PARTY  German designer Philipp Plein took over New York\'s Hammerstein Ballroom Saturday (9 SEPT.) with a wild party and runway show set to a live performance by rapper Future.   Dita von Teese wowed the crowd with a risqué striptease that ended with the famed burlesque dancer writhing and wet in a giant martini glass. Rapper Nicki Minaj snapped selfies from the front row before taking the stage at the event\'s after party.    Sequins adorned leather jackets, ripped jeans and tee-shirts featuring gagged cartoon princesses. Women wore barley there, strappy structures, which were sometimes paired with sparkly tees or no top at all.   \"Well expect the unexpected, good gone bad. It\'s a fairytale. It\'s a modern fairytale. It has a lot to do with fantasy. You know fantasy ... Fairytales are based on fantasies, right? But it\'s a little bit of fetish inside because also fetish is a fantasy, you know? Everybody has a fetish! Some talk about it openly. Some are free to talk about it and I think in fashion there is no border. I think it\'s going to be a sexy, fairytale with a touch of fetish,\" said Plein before the show. Teyana Taylor, who showed off her dance skills in Kanye West\'s \"Fade\" video, performed for the crowd in a lace bodysuit and platinum blonde hair.  Plein\'s eclectic models included rapper 21 Savage and Snoop Dogg\'s father, Vernell Varnado. Runway regulars like Adriana Lima and Irina Shayk opened and closed the show.  Girl group Fifth Harmony took a table close to the stage.  \"We love his work,\" said Lauren Jauregui. \"I genuinely love Plein. I\'ve warn him before on a couple red carpets so it\'s just amazing. I\'m so glad that we were invited!\" Actress Bella Thorne and rapper 50 Cent were also spotted in the packed crowd.  \"Well, it\'s kind of me. It\'s a little harder, aggressive stuff like skulls and bones, spikes and leather,\" said 50 Cent. \"A little bit, yeah. It\'s almost when you say spikes and leather, a little BDSM going on there, right? A little freaky (expletive).\"   You can license this story through AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/metadata/youtube/8b9648e3dc98338ee438542313eb3b5c  Find out more about AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/HowWeWork'
