Virgil Abloh: Historic Louie V. Moment As Men’s Artistic Director

When one makes it, it feels like we all do. 

From founding the lux-street wear brand Off-White, to now being named Artistic Director of Louis Vuitton menswear, Vigil Abloh is making Money moves. 

The multi-faceted Illinois native born to Ghanaian immigrant parents, started out his career at Fendi alongside Kanye West as an intern; later transpired to Kanye making Virgil his own creative director.

​Today, Virgil is making history as the first black person ever to take on the role as creative head for such a prestigious designer label. His newly appointed position has and will continue to make a statement for the evolution of diversity in the industry.
