Virgil Abloh has close ties with the art world and his recent launch for his [streetwear imprint Off-White](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unvrs-and-offwhite) stays true to that concept -- the latest Mona Lisa cap celebrates the famed painting. The [latest headwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-era-cap) celebrates the Italian Renaissance masterpiece by Leonardo da Vinci.

It showcases a print of the painting right at the front of the cap silhouette. The actual hat is complete in a vibrant red hue, allowing a contrast against the more subtle hues of the Mona Lisa painting. Additional details include the intricate handwriting details complete in white over the front of the hat as well. The hat boasts adjustable elements with a strap found at the back enclasped with a buckle enclosure in black.
