Louis Vuitton honours Virgil Abloh's memory by displaying his final collection at Men's Fashion Week in Paris
During the Men's Fashion Week in Paris, Louis Vuitton paid a tribute to to Virgil Abloh and his legacy with a presentation of his final collection.
Fashion house Louis Vuitton paid homage to Virgil Abloh with a presentation of his final collection on Thursday during Men's Fashion Week in Paris, taking to a surreal setting featuring a sunken house and oversize bed.
At the end of the show, models ambled around the set, some wearing white wings, and embraced one another, while the audience stood to take in the scene.
Abloh, the American-born son of Ghanaian immigrants who became fashion's highest-profile Black designer and the creative mind behind Louis Vuitton's menswear collections, died in November following a two-year battle with a rare form of cancer.

Abloh's arrival at LVMH in 2018 marked the marriage between streetwear and high-end fashion, mixing sneakers and camouflage pants with tailored suits and evening gowns. His influences included graffiti art, hip hop and skateboard culture.
