Off White's chief executive officer and founder Virgil Abloh passed away at 41 after battling cancer for years. Virgil Abloh was one of the top US fashion designers, the artistic director of Louis Vuitton's menswear collection.

The barrier-breaking fashion designer Virgil Abloh dies of cancer at 41

Just three weeks after Louis Vuitton and Off-White designer Virgil Abloh`s tragic death, his close friend Drake got a permanent tattoo in tribute for the designer inked on his arm. 
 
According to E! News, Los Angeles-based tattoo artist Joaquin Ganga posted on Instagram the meaningful tattoo he recently created for the rapper, who has an array of ink dedicated to notable figures, including Denzel Washington and Aaliyah."A remembrance of the great Virgil Abloh done on Drake," the caption read. The detailed image, which showed the back of the fashion designer as he launches a kite into the sky above him, closely resembled a photo of Abloh from 2018, where he`s seen floating a Louis Vuitton kite from the runway of a show in Paris. 
 
The Off-White label founder died on November 28 at the age of 41 after a private battle with a rare form of cancer. Following news of his tragic passing, Drake took to Instagram to honour his friend. "My plan is to touch the sky 1000 more times for you. Love you eternally brother, thank you for everything," he captioned a series of photos. 
 
In March 2020, Abloh had helped with the design of Drake's private jet, which was unveiled to have a sky-blue, cloud-covered makeover, a nod to the cover art for Drake`s 2013 album, `Nothing Was The Same`. 
 
As per E! News, Abloh also designed a Patek Philippe Nautilus watch for him, with Drake giving the designer and his work a shout-out in his 2020 single with rapper Future called `Life Is Good`. Drake rapped on the track, "Virgil got a Patek on my wrist going nuts."

Drake gets new tattoo in honour of late friend Virgil Abloh

&nbsp;It was a "kid in a candy store" moment for Billie Essco when he found himself in a cavernous space beneath the Louvre Museum in January last year, backstage before a show for fashion designer Virgil Abloh`s luxury streetwear label Off-White. 
 
Essco, a 31-year-old Black American artist, musician and clothing designer from Buffalo, New York had made a last-minute decision to join his friend, rapper Westside Gunn, on a trip to Paris with hopes of sneaking into a show during Fashion Week. 
 
He never would have dreamt of hanging out with Abloh, who besides being the founder of Off-White, was the menswear designer for Louis Vuitton - the world`s biggest luxury brand owned by French giant LVMH. 
 
"I`ve been channelling this man, his energy and his designs for the last five years and now I`m here seeing things that the world hasn`t seen yet," said Essco, also known as Uptown Chase. 
 
"Fashion was such a closed-knit, niche thing, it was a kind of insider, `if you know, you know` -- I believe that Virgil opened it up for people like me to come in, into this community." 
 
Abloh, fashion`s highest-profile Black designer, died on Sunday at just 41 after a private battle with a rare form of cancer. As recently as July he had been promoted to work across LVMH`s 75 brands. 
 
Fellow creative directors at rival groups, from Gucci`s Alessandro Michele to Donatella Versace, have praised his vision. A tribute nL1N2SL3V8 runway show of his final collection, held in Miami on Tuesday, drew a high-profile crowd including his long-time friend, musician and fashion designer Ye - formerly known as Kanye West - and LVMH billionaire boss Bernard Arnault. 
 
But for people like Essco, skateboarding teenagers in his home city of Chicago and orphaned West African refugees in Paris playing for a French amateur football team in Abloh-designed T-shirts, his name and influence resonated well beyond the traditional, rarefied world of luxury. 
 
`SPARKS AND FLAIR` 
 
A first-generation Ghanaian American, Abloh - who also worked as a DJ and visual artist - was not a classically trained designer. He often said he drew inspiration from what he saw in the street. 
 
Essco, who studied fashion design at Buffalo State College, had followed Abloh`s rise over the years and appreciated how he brought together hip-hop culture and fashion, breaking boundaries at a time when styles were mostly clean-cut and traditional, and lacking "sparks and flair". 
 
Abloh`s early work applying large print logos to Ralph Lauren flannel shirts echoed with Essco, who was at the time experimenting with screen printing on garments sourced from local second-hand shops. Later, after founding Off-White, the designer reposted an image of a model in a hoodie that Essco had styled on Instagram. 
 
"I realized myself through following him as a person, and as a man, it just taught me that I wasn`t crazy, and I could be exactly who I wanted to be - I could be from the hood, but college educated," said Essco. 
 
He described Abloh`s approach as "creating a space where you can all be in the room instead of having to pick a side - because we come from a place where you choose to do one thing and that`s it, you`ve got to stick with it". 
 
During his January 2020 trip to Paris, Abloh offered Gunn and Essco invitations to his label`s catwalk show, after-parties and the highly coveted Louis Vuitton show. 
 
"To see not only how human he was but how similar he was to my friends, and to myself, I was like, ah, we could do this – not only could we do this, but finally, it`s being done," he said.

Louis Vuitton designer Virgil Abloh's charisma extended beyond luxury

The British Fashion Council's usually glitzy annual awards honoured a host of prominent industry names in sombre style on Monday following the death of Louis Vuitton designer Virgil Abloh.

The 2021 ceremony, at London's Royal Albert Hall, saw Kim Jones win "designer of the year", for Dior Men and Fendi, and Tommy Hilfiger lauded with the "outstanding achievement award".

Meanwhile, British designer Stella McCartney and editor-in-chief of British Vogue Edward Enninful were among 15 recognised as "leaders of change".

But the event was overshadowed by the passing of Abloh, who died Sunday aged 41 after battling cancer for several years.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/lifestyle/news-designer-sabyasachi-mukherjee-trolled-for-featuring-unhappy-models-in-jewellery-ad-432765" hreflang="en">Indian luxury fashion designer trolled for featuring 'unhappy models' in jewellery ad</a>

Louis Vuitton's trailblazing head of menswear, and the first black artistic director at a major French luxury label, was also named a leader of change and eulogised throughout the evening.

A minute's silence was observed at the beginning of the show in memory of the late founder of brand Off-White and DJ, before British actor Idris Elba recited the Maya Angelou poem "When Great Trees Fall".

Fashion designer Virgil Abloh dead: Kanye West, BTS, Drake & others share tributes

Virgil Abloh reimagined the profile of a fashion designer, merging streetwear, music and high fashion, and shattering glass ceilings as the first black creative director at Louis Vuitton.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/lifestyle/news-visionary-fashion-designer-virgil-abloh-dies-aged-41-432638">Virgil Abloh </a>died on Sunday at the age of 41, with few aware that he had been battling a rare form of cancer, cardiac angiosarcoma, since 2019.

His partnership with Kanye West catapulted Abloh from the skate and DJ culture of Chicago to the heights of the fashion world, first with his own red-hot label Off-White, and then to the apex of the traditional luxury industry in Paris.&nbsp;

His cancer diagnosis came just a year after he was appointed as head of menswear for Louis Vuitton, becoming the first black person to take an artistic director role at a top French fashion house.

That did not stop him maintaining a gruelling schedule as he remoulded the label in his image, merging streetwear, social media and celebrity -- while also moonlighting as a DJ and a furniture designer for IKEA.&nbsp;

"Everything I do is for the 17-year-old version of myself," he was often quoted as saying, as he pulled in the influences from his youth to breathe new life into the catwalk.

- Accidental designer -

Abloh, the son of Ghanaian immigrants, studied architecture at the Illinois Institute of Technology, but his career took a surprising turn after his design ideas caught the attention of West, who hired him as his creative director in 2007.&nbsp;

The pair were determined to revamp the world of high fashion, and even took on an internship together at Fendi in Rome in 2009 in their bid to learn the business.&nbsp;

Abloh started his first clothing label, Pyrex Vision, in 2012.&nbsp;

"I didn't make a conscious decision one day that I wanted to be a designer," he told GQ. "I made Pyrex, which in my mind was more like an art piece... and I needed clothing to support this idea."

Pyrex quickly morphed into Off-White, which took the fashion world by storm by by mixing urban style with high-end tailoring.&nbsp;

Its trademark diagonal stripes were combined with ironic messaging -- often putting fashion terms in quotation marks on his clothing.&nbsp;

It all added to Abloh's youth appeal, as did his early embrace of Instagram (he had 6.5 million followers at the time of his passing).

His 2017 collaboration with Nike became "the Official Sneaker of Celebrities Everywhere" in the words of GQ, and many more tie-ups followed, running the gamut from Jimmy Choo and Moncler to even McDonald's.&nbsp;

That sealed the deal.&nbsp;

With the old fashion houses desperate to attract younger buyers, Abloh was the obvious candidate to replace Kim Jones -- himself a pioneer of luxury streetwear -- when he left Louis Vuitton.&nbsp;

- 'Shocked' -

The reactions to his death reflect the fact that Abloh seemed to have only just arrived and had much more to offer.

"We are all shocked by this terrible news," said Bernard Arnault, chief executive of LVMH, the group that owns Louis Vuitton and had taken a majority stake in Off-White this year, in a statement.&nbsp;

"Virgil was not only a genius designer, a visionary, but also a man with a beautiful soul and great wisdom," he added.&nbsp;

Abloh looked set to offer a powerful voice for change in the fashion world, vowing "to expand opportunities for diverse individuals and foster greater equity and inclusion in the industries we serve".

His first show for Louis Vuitton in March 2018 with models from around the world strutting down a rainbow runway.&nbsp;

Abloh faced some backlash in 2020 when he voiced anger over the rioting that accompanied protests over the murder of George Floyd in the US.&nbsp;

But that did little to dent his status as a ground-breaking figure.

"RIP VIRGIL ABLOH. No one will forget the impact you had. God bless you my friend," tweeted the French football star Kylian Mbappe.

American singer Pharrell Williams wrote on Instagram: "Virgil you were a kind, generous, thoughtful creative genius your work as a human and your work as a spiritual being will live forever."

Actor Riz Ahmed tweeted: "Gone too soon but your legacy lives on. Stretched culture and changed the game. Thank you for all you did to support so many &amp; how you pushed us to reimagine what’s possible.

Its trademark diagonal stripes were combined with ironic messaging -- often putting fashion terms in quotation marks on his clothing. It all added to Abloh's youth appeal, as did his early embrace of Instagram (he had 6.5 million followers at the time of his passing). His 2017 collaboration with Nike became "the Official Sneaker of Celebrities Everywhere" in the words of GQ, and many more tie-ups followed, running the gamut from Jimmy Choo and Moncler to even McDonald's. That sealed the deal. With the old fashion houses desperate to attract younger buyers, Abloh was the obvious candidate to replace Kim Jones -- himself a pioneer of luxury streetwear -- when he left Louis Vuitton. Lindsay Lohan gets engaged to boyfriend Bader Shammas, shares pics - 'Shocked' - The reactions to his death reflect the fact that Abloh seemed to have only just arrived and had much more to offer. "We are all shocked by this terrible news," said Bernard Arnault, chief executive of LVMH, the group that owns Louis Vuitton and had taken a majority stake in Off-White this year, in a statement. "Virgil was not only a genius designer, a visionary, but also a man with a beautiful soul and great wisdom," he added. Abloh looked set to offer a powerful voice for change in the fashion world, vowing "to expand opportunities for diverse individuals and foster greater equity and inclusion in the industries we serve". His first show for Louis Vuitton in March 2018 with models from around the world strutting down a rainbow runway. Abloh faced some backlash in 2020 when he voiced anger over the rioting that accompanied protests over the murder of George Floyd in the US. But that did little to dent his status as a ground-breaking figure. "RIP VIRGIL ABLOH. No one will forget the impact you had. God bless you my friend," tweeted the French football star Kylian Mbappe. American singer Pharrell Williams wrote on Instagram: "Virgil you were a kind, generous, thoughtful creative genius your work as a human and your work as a spiritual being will live forever." Actor Riz Ahmed tweeted: "Gone too soon but your legacy lives on. Stretched culture and changed the game. Thank you for all you did to support so many & how you pushed us to reimagine what’s possible.

Virgil Abloh: the man who brought the street to the catwalk

Top US fashion designer Virgil Abloh, the artistic director of Louis Vuitton's menswear collection, died Sunday aged 41 after battling cancer for several years, the fashion and luxury house's French owners LVMH announced.

Abloh, the first black American creative director of a top French fashion house, brought streetwear such as hoodies and sneakers to the catwalk.

He transcended the fashion world and his untimely death at the peak of his career sent shockwaves across the globe, with tributes pouring in from rival design houses but also actors and sportspeople for a man seen as a deeply humane visionary.

"We are all shocked by this terrible news. Virgil was not only a genius designer, a visionary, but also a man with a beautiful soul and great wisdom," LVMH chief executive Bernard Arnault said in a statement.

"The LVMH family joins me in this moment of great sorrow and we are all thinking of his loved ones after the passing of their husband, their father, their brother or their friend," he added in the statement posted on LVMH's Twitter account.

The group said he had been "battling privately" against cancer for several years.

Abloh was chosen to be artistic director of Louis Vuitton's menswear collection in 2018. His parents had immigrated to the United States from Ghana.

LVMH also announced earlier this year it was taking a majority stake in the luxury streetwear label Off-White created by Abloh. LVMH took 60-percent stake in Off-White and Abloh retained 40 percent.

Abloh has addressed both environmental and social issues in his work with Louis Vuitton, with anti-racist and anti-homophobia messages at his January show in Paris.

He said earlier this year he planned to use his partnership with LVMH "to expand opportunities for diverse individuals and foster greater equity and inclusion in the industries we serve".

"He will be deeply missed though his vision will live on through the trails that he blazed throughout his career," Gucci added on its Twitter account.

- 'No one will forget impact' -

The king of luxury streetwear, Abloh had established himself within a few years as one of the most sought-after designers in the world.

His trademark was a style reflecting street culture, with sneakers and sweatshirts, but also an easily recognisable logo, made of oblique black and white bands. He enjoyed successful collaborations with the likes of Nike, Jimmy Choo and Moncler.&nbsp;

Abloh created his first label, Pyrex Vision, in 2012.&nbsp;

A year later, Off-White was born, a luxury streetwear brand, which won a following through its eye-catching branding before evolving towards more "couture" creations.&nbsp;

Abloh was one of a handful of fashion designers who had a close following well beyond the industry and was a celebrity name in his own right.

Canadian rapper Drake thanked Abloh "for everything" in an Instagram post.&nbsp;

"Love you eternally brother," he wrote.

US singer Pharrell Williams also took to Instagram with a tribute, writing: "Virgil you were a kind, generous, thoughtful creative genius your work as a human and your work as a spiritual being will live forever.

'Visionary' fashion designer Virgil Abloh dies aged 41

French luxury conglomerate LVMH said Tuesday it intends to take a majority stake in the luxury streetwear label Off-White created by Virgil Abloh, the first black American creative director of a top French fashion house.

LVMH will take a 60 percent stake in Off-White for an undisclosed sum, according to a statement. &nbsp;

Abloh will retain 40 percent and remain creative director for the men's collections of LVMH's Louis Vuitton fashion house.

The Italian group New Guards, which currently owns a majority of Off-White, will remain a partner to the brand via a licencing agreement after the deal, which is subject to regulatory approvals, is finalised.

The deal marks an expansion of Abloh's collaboration with LVMH, the world's top luxury group, and he said he envisaged potential partnerships with its non-fashion brands as well as starting new ones of his own.&nbsp;

"For nearly a decade, we've been building Off-White to be a brand designed to empower our generation and challenge the status quo," Abloh said in a statement.

"LVMH brings to the table the additional firepower and scale to accelerate our momentum and evolve Off-White into a truly multi-line luxury brand," he added.

Abloh has addressed both environmental and social issues in his work with Louis Vuitton, with anti-racist and anti-homophobia messages at his January show in Paris.

Fashion designer Virgil Abloh trolled online for $50 donation to Black Lives Matter fund
