Off-White™ has collaborated with the Brooklyn Museum on a special collection inspired by the exhibition’s ideas and essential pieces as Virgil Abloh: Figures Of Speech continues its six-month run.
The choices include couture smoking jackets, street-ready tees and hoodies, beautiful purses, and even accessories like clocks and prints, which make their debut at the exhibition’s shop “Church & State,” whose name is a play on the synergy between art and commerce.
The smoking jackets are produced in Italy and come in either a dramatic checkered design or a stark black. Each is covered with oversize text and schematics referencing the exhibition’s artworks and goods, with hoodies and tees featuring spray-effect renditions of Off-White™’s signature “arrow” symbol.
A quartet of bags is also present. There is one tote bag and three handbags with typical Off-White™ themes like lines and checkers, including one with Virgil Abloh‘s architectural drawing of SOCIAL SCULPTURE, a massive wooden building that is one of the exhibit is primary centerpieces.
Last but not least is a tabletop flip clock that pays homage to the collection’s inspirations, as well as a full-size reproduction of Abloh’s aforementioned drawing.
The Brooklyn Museum x Off-White™ collection will be unveiled during a special event in the museum on September 15 from 7-10 PM EST. On September 16, it will be available at the Brooklyn Museum webstore and Off-White™ flagship stores.
