Prominent and highly-regarded fashion designer Virgil Abloh passed on Sunday after battling a rare form of cancer at just 41-years-old. Abloh was known for his omnivorous creative mind which had no limits and pushed the fashion world to evolve when it hit a stagnant state back in 2009. He also made room for other minority designers and was a leader of equality and diversity in fashion.
Gone too soon, but Abloh made the most of every second during his time on Earth and has impacted many of the world's most influential people—even a few of the world's top tennis players.
1. Serena and Venus Williams
Abloh who was the founder of luxury fashion label, OFF-WHITE worked very closely with Serena and Nike on a few statement outfits she donned on the court. The 23-time Grand Slam's light lavender, purple tutu dress she wore during the 2018 US Open was created with Abloh. This marked their first time working together.
The barrier-breaking designer also crafted one of Serena's most iconic on-court looks at the 2018 Roland Garros. It was her first Grand Slam as a mother and Abloh carefully designed an outfit that not only captured Serena's fierce on-court demeanor, but an outfit that would keep her comfortable and safe as she tried to suppress blood clots like those she'd experienced after giving birth.
Her sleek midnight black-bodysuit with a vibrant red waistband not only made Serena feel like a superhero, but it helped with circulation and served as an inspiration to other mothers. Abloh proved that clothes aren't just garments but tokens of identity. He had a way of giving the familiar an added touch of non-traditional and culture.
