Off-White
Off White c/o Virgil Abloh is a streetwear clothing and accessories brand for men and women, created by the designer Virgil Abloh in 2012.
The brand focuses on the metropolitan lifestyle, with a particular focus on hip-hop style that includes products that do not fear seasonal fashions.
Born in Milan, the brand guarantees high manufacturing in terms of fabrics, shapes and production.
Off White c/o Virgil Abloh also collaborates with Show Studio to produce an exclusive line of personalized sweatshirts. The theme of the line is inspired by the exhibition Punk Art, "Caos al Couture", exhibited a few years ago at the Metropolitan Museum in New York.
Most inspired by the underground style, Abloh has associated other influences to his vision of fashion, creating collections such as the "Pyrex Vision Collection", which is based on the regularity of Mies Van Der Rohe Farnsworth.
Abloh's parents are natives of Ghana, while the designer, a style advisor to singer Kanye West, grew up in Chicago, where he deepened his shabby chic lifestyle that is enhanced in his creations.
In fact, the collection entitled 'Washed' follows this juxtaposition of cultures. There are wind jackets with capital letters, woven espadrilles, plaid grunge jackets reminiscent of the 90s and camouflage military jackets. The entire collection conveys an unfinished feeling that leads the brand's customers to see street wear in a new light.
Off White c/o Virgil Abloh can be purchased in a very limited number of high quality boutiques all over the world.
