The pieces, designed by Virgil Abloh, are set to hit the stores for the fashion house's SS 21 collection. The line features numerous statement pieces for the male consumer, helping to normalize accessories in men's fashion. What's unique to this line is the Abloh-designed “Zoooom With Friends” characters which adorn most of the pieces. These [adorable cartoon characters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artycapucines-vii) add a sense of novelty and color to each of the designs, creating playful sensibilities that are unique to the brand. The collection arrives with numerous [necklaces and earrings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pure-v) that boast a high-end but everyday look.
