*** UPDATE 29/11/2021 ***

This article was originally published on February 16, 2021, a few months before Virgil Abloh's untimely passing. Virgil Abloh was a source of inspiration and a pioneer, the whole editorial staff and the whole team of nss magazine huddles in condolences to the family and collaborators.

After presenting the FW19 collection of OFF-White and giving life to his second show as creative director of Louis Vuitton during the Paris Fashion Week, Virgil launched a site that aims as a real archive of all his works. A much-talked-about project that was initially supposed to be translated into a book, while instead became a digital alternative, accessible everywhere, which is a hybrid between an open portfolio and a collection of personal witnesses of inestimable value.

The design studio of Bergamo Studio Temp has taken care of the website design that collects all the collections designed by Virgil, the famous Shownotes of his debut SS19 Louis Vuitton for SS19, the collaboration of furniture with IKEA, the speech held at Harvard, the talk with Tim Blanks, his contribution in "Fashioning’s Africa’s Future" but also "Pyrex Vision: a team with no sport" to retrace the first steps of his genius, as well as a series of musical mixes and performances recorded around the world.

Canary Yellow is a platform in which to immerse yourself to fully understand the mentality of the designer who changed the fashion of the present and to recover the precious words he spent in defending his culture and bring forward a change that will continue to materialize in future.
