Virgil Abloh, one of fashion’s most iconic designers and artists, passed away yesterday after battling cancer privately for years. Regardless of his condition, Virgil continued to innovate and push forward his work. Virgil was known for founding and running luxury brand, Off-White, and also being involved as the artistic director of Louis Vuitton. He was the first black director to be appointed to his role at LVMH.
