A first look at Virgil Abloh's AW18 vision, unveiled today in Paris
Renowned for taking fashion week as an opportunity to unveil his high-concept vision, which will later trickle down to inform the next generation of streetwear essentials, Virgil Abloh unveiled Off-White's AW18 menswear vision in Paris this morning.
Dubbed "Business Casual", the new collection explores a range of remixed sartorial pieces, iterating suiting and corporate-wares in the inimitable Off-White aesthetic. This collection marked the next phrase in an ongoing call and response between Virgil Abloh and an inner-sanctum of fashion sceptics who question the design-credentials and pedigree of streetwear's reigning monarch. Each season Abloh masterfully answers these concerns by offering front row seats to the careful revelation of his ongoing grand plan to eradicate completely the idea that high fashion and premium streetwear are from different worlds.
