At Paris Fashion Week this year, the Off-White fashion show treated audiences to a myriad of looks directly inspired by the iconic Princess Diana. As this season marks the 20th anniversary of her death, designer Virgil Abloh consulted hundreds of images of the people's princess to inform the creation of his latest collection.
The Spring 2018 Ready-to-Wear Off-White looks that walked down the runway offered a modern take on some of Princess Diana's most iconic fashion looks, including tartan day suits, cocktail suits, as well as bold graphics and polka dots.
For the finale of the show, supermodel Naomi Campbell closed the show wearing an unconventional combination: a tailored white asymmetrical jacket and a pair of stretchy bicycle shorts, effectively fusing popular formalwear and athleisure styles.
