LVMH’s Vuitton taps Virgil Abloh
LVMH’S Louis Vuitton brand, the biggest revenue driver at the French luxury goods group, said it had hired Virgil Abloh, the founder of streetwear label Off-White, to design its menswear collections.
The appointment follows internal reshuffles at LVMH that included switching menswear designers at sister brand Christian Dior.
Abloh, a 37-year-old American, who has worked as hip-hop singer Kanye West’s creative director, launched his first men’s and womenswear collections through his Off-White label four years ago.
The brand is known for its luxury urban style, featuring hoodies that start at 400 pounds (US$570).
Abloh takes over from Briton Kim Jones, who was last week named as the new designer of menswear at Dior.
