Off-White is a new form of luxury brand. Construction and deconstruction go hand in hand, recombining the codes of fashion, design, communication, art and technology. Well thought, well designed and well executed products are aesthetic as well as ethical statements with a contemporary cultural edge. Progress, innovation and diversity. We have taken the notion and development of a fashion brand to a new level altogether. Based in Milan, our creative office absorbs and transforms the heritage of Italian craftsmanship from a contemporary, global perspective on design and trends.
