Make It Ours: Crashing the Gates of Culture with Virgil Abloh by Robin Givhan
A groundbreaking chronicle of the life and legacy of Virgil Abloh from Pulitzer Prize-winning critic, Robin Givhan.
In 2018, Louis Vuitton appointed a designer with no formal training to be the head of menswear - the first Black director in the brand's 164-year history, upending a century's worth of ideas about luxury and taste.
Recounting Virgil Abloh's remarkable ascent to the top, Make It Ours unearths how the cloistered, exclusive fashion world faced a revolution from below, dressed in graphic t-shirts and sneakers.
With unparalleled access to Abloh's family, collaborators, and contemporaries like Ozwald Boateng and Kanye West, Givhan weaves a spellbinding biography of a singular creative force and a powerful meditation on fashion and race, taste and exclusivity, genius and luxury.
