OFF-WHITE founder Virgil Abloh is no stranger to killing it with not only his own creative projects as well as his various collaborations, many of which from the past year.
Coming straight off of his recent success with Louis Vuitton, and designing Travis Scott’s latest Astroworld merch, Abloh is making sure that the streetwear giant that is OFF-WHITE shows no signs of slowing down, adding brick after brick to the empire.
Turning to sportswear yet again, it was revealed through an official announcement on OFF-WHITE’s Instagram that we’re in for a collaboration with tennis grand-slammer, Serena Williams.
The Queen Collection is inspired by Williams’ love of ballet, and will feature two tulle dresses in different variations: a daytime and a nighttime version, as well as a range performance sneakers.
In an exclusive with Vogue, she states, “it really embodies what I always say: that you can be strong and beautiful at the same time”.
The dresses both feature signature the usual OFF-WHITE signatures of obscure, quoted phrases and unique branding; as well as pictured on the NikeCourt Flare 2 PE revamp, the Air Max 97 and the Blazer Mid SW silhouettes.
Both the 97’s and the Blazers bring a vibrant flare with fluorescent pink and bright gradients, whilst the bomber jacket and NikeCourt’s keep it monotone with black and grey hues.
Keep your eyes peeled on NikeLab for release.
All hail Queen Serena and King Virgil.
Whilst we wait, go from tennis to basketball with the latest Nike Air More Uptempo “EU City” pack.
