Antonioli, a luxury fashion retailer, recently joined with Virgil Abloh's OFF-WHITE to launch a collection of streetwear.
The styles feature subdued color palettes of gray and black, as well as graphics that give them a much more bold appearance. While many of these are dedicated to OFF-WHITE's iconic branding, there's also a tee that includes a large abstract portrait on the front, along with the word "SILENCE," which is written is large bold letters.
Most interesting from the Antonioli and OFF-WHITE collection however are the bleach-dipped pants, which have frayed hems and a stark contrast between their white bottoms and the rest. On the dipped components, OFF-WHITE's branding is featured again. As Virgil Abloh has become such an important name in fashion, his iconic markings make the apparel worth the luxury price.
