Off-White "OFFKAT" collection eyewear
Today marks the two-year anniversary of Virgil Abloh’s tragic passing. On paper Virgil was an Illinois-born artist, architect, and fashion designer but in reality he was so much more. A world changer. Abloh shifted a whole generation through his catalogue of work and contributions, always being “open source” about his work, and leaving behind artifacts such as his “Free Game” resource or his iconic talks in order to spread knowledge and open doors for others. A true student, turned teacher, turned master that found a way to unite the various disciplines into one cohesive cultural fabric.
As quoted in VOGUE, Virgil was greatly inspired by his Nintendo days in the late 80s. Screenshots and video from the OFFKAT video game experience, which was released as part of the collaboration between Abloh’s fashion label Off-White and legendary graffiti writer and artist KATSU. Also pictured is his 2019 all-green Lower East Side pop up which featured his signature model-mannequin playing on a tonal PS4.
LONG LIVE VIRGIL 9/30/80 - 11/28/21 ✨✨🕊️✨✨
