Off-White presents the FW18 "Business Casual" collection

Virgil Abloh explores the most personal and sophisticated side of casual

Off-White presents the FW18 Business Casual collection Virgil Abloh explores the most personal and sophisticated side of casual

After a few seasons of absence from the catwalks, Virgil Abloh returns to Paris Fashion Week, specifically at the Center Georges Pompidou, to present Off-White FW18 collection.

With this show, called "Business Casual", the designer seems to take the first step towards a new direction and leaves the most extreme street style in the background and declines a personal and more sophisticated vision of the concept of "casual".

In front of an audience that mixes influential names from the world of art, fashion and music, such as Future, Takashi Murakami, Jerry Lorenzo, Alexander Wang, Luka Sabbat and Sarah Andelman of colette. Alternating semi-opaque raincoats, double-breasted suits with graphic details, tie-dye garments, shirts with diagonal openings, T-shirts, sweatshirts, leather jackets, GORE-TEX suits, cargo pants, oversized knitwear and tees dedicated to The Beastie Boys.

Altogether, these pieces form a ramshackle harmony, but that works.

At the feet of the models check a pair of Virgil Abloh x Nike Air Jordan 1 in a completely white color, which is said to be part of a women's collection that will arrive in stores later this year, but also a pair of Timberlands velvet burgundy and dark blue.
