Designer Spencer Phipps has fashion’s most eccentric self-isolation workout—an at-home climbing wall in his Paris apartment.
With the rapid escalation of the COVID-19 outbreak over the past weeks, a scroll through your Instagram feed has become an unlikely window into the homes of those you follow—whether TikTok videos by celebrities dancing in their kitchens, or friends posting mirror selfies of their latest work-from-home fits. Another more unusual byproduct has been witnessing the masses take their workout routines online, from live-streamed yoga sessions to communal dance classes.
“It was actually a little Christmas present to myself,” Phipps says over the phone from his Paris apartment, where he had just finished a quick session on the wall before lunch. “The idea came about during another disruptive situation, after the strikes in December. I used to train probably four or five days a week, going to the climbing gym every morning, but starting a business means things get crazy, so I didn't have the same schedule.
With the current pandemic meaning many fashion studios have disbanded to work from home, I’m curious to know how he’s faring in these unprecedented circumstances. “I could be much worse off,” says Phipps. “We were fortunate enough to be organized earlier in the season, so the collection is with the factories already, it's just a matter of getting the fabrics ready to go, and little things like that, which are coming.
