RIMOWA will unveil a collaboration model with OFF-WHITE c/o VIRGIL ABLOH™ on July 7th. The only store in Japan offering the collaboration is the RIMOWA Store Tokyo Omotesando, and sales will be via a lottery system with advance applications via the "PassMarket" service.
130,000 yen (estimated price)

The collaboration model, which was unveiled in full at the OFF-WHITE men's fashion show held in Paris on June 20th, is a transparent polycarbonate carry case based on RIMOWA's Essential model. Black accents on the wheels, lock, and telescoping handle create a distinctive Off-White aesthetic. The interior lining has been removed to enhance the transparent body, showcasing a bold playful approach to today's increasingly sensitive privacy issues. Virgil Abloh, Louis Vuitton's Men's Artistic Director, commented, "Creating something with friends is always an exciting experience. Our collaboration with RIMOWA began in 2014. RIMOWA CEO Alexandre Arnault and I came up with the idea of a model that combined functionality with a cool look. As a fan of the RIMOWA brand and a dedicated user of RIMOWA carry-on luggage, I was determined to create something I truly wanted, something that could only be realized through a collaboration. I'm confident that the results will be apparent to those who see this collaborative model."
