Fashion designs begin on a blank “canvas.” Creative concepts and immaculate fabrications spring free from artistic minds to the pages of glossy magazines and lithe runway models. Conventional luxury fashion brands are often perceived as the only type of fashion with well-defined and conceptualized meanings. Street wear fashion is the fastest growing trend in recent years. Designers clamor to reach the young celebrity, millennial market of fashion consumers.

Off-White is the amalgamation of brazen fashion and highly-imagined concepts.
