Off-White™ and Vilebrequin Deliver Top-Shelf Swimwear
Plenty of playfully-patterned trunks.
Virgil Abloh‘s Off-White™ refuses to halt its collaborative efforts, moving neatly into Summer ‘19 with a special range of beach essentials designed in partnership with Vilebrequin. The French swimwear label is known for its luxurious trunks, cut to be both comfortable and flattering; here, they’re utilized by Off-White™ as a canvas upon which to express Abloh’s signature visual style.
Five distinctive bathing suits are on hand, each sporting a different take on Off-White™’s logos and branding. Two suits are mirror images of each other — blank except for orange drawstrings, contrasting “OFF” branding at the knees and an “X” logo on the rear. The other trunks include a black and white striped set, a bold yellow iteration with stylized paint-stained branding and the most graphic of the lot: a floral printed pair, complete with “PATTERN” verbiage. All of the swimsuits boast elasticated waistbands, co-branded tags on the rear and zippered back pockets, complete with paperclip zipper pull.
The collaboration is available now on Off-White™’s web store, Vilebrequin stores and select retailers like MATCHESFASHION.COM this week. Take a closer look at the men’s offerings below.
