Designer Virgil Abloh introduces new selection to the existing MCA Chicago Figure of Speech collection, featuring apparel designs that are inspired by the artistically charged exhibition. The latest drop features two new tees, each one honoring his first-ever clothing line, 'PYREX VISION.'
The tee starts with a Champion blank printed with black and white images that recall renaissance paintings across the front. Along with the image detail including the AMO badge accompanied by the title Office for Metropolitan Architecture and the stamp nodding to the exhibition. The back of the tee is decorated with a quote recalling the overall installation and the designer's signature motif. The second tee also features a white base with red lines on the front and glossary and index on the back.
