Lil Silva, a talented music producer from Bedford, UK, joined with Virgil Abloh's 'OFF-WHITE' Milan-based label for a limited-edition drop. Included is a bold black and white t-shirt and a vinyl release.
Both feature the fashion designer and creative director's iconic branding. The shirt executes the design in a more distressed manner however, with the diagonal stripes appearing as if they were spraypainted on. Above this, a white box includes "VI" in black lettering -- referencing the name of the vinyl.
Those looking to get the exclusive shirt can find it while supplies last in the label's Singapore, Hong Kong and Tokyo stores. For those in the UK, it can be picked up at Selfridges.
