Fashion's finest gathered in Miami to watch Virgil Abloh's final show for Louis Vuitton.
, A$AP Rocky, and countless others who were both touched and inspired by Abloh came to join the audience.
Before the models emerged, Louis Vuitton’s CEO, Michael Burke, made a speech in which his voice sometimes cracked as the offshore wind rustled against the runway-planted birch trees, and we all sat silent. He said: “The deeply moving show we are about to see is born out of an idea Virgil and I first discussed three years ago.
As the models moved in the dim dusk light, clad in clothes that joyfully busted archetypes and deftly drifted between as many genres as the soundtrack, we were for perhaps one last time in a place where everything was of Abloh’s own design. While the many people here and beyond who were so inspired by Virgil Abloh will doubtless ensure that his design and philosophy live on in the canon of contemporary fashion, it seems so cruel that he could not be here to watch the show unfold with us.
