Shannon Abloh gives first interview since Virgil Abloh's passing
A little over one year after her husband's passing, Shannon Abloh sat down with The New York Times to discuss her plans to take charge of his legacy. She said, "After his passing, so many people came up to me and said, 'Virgil was my best friend' [...] A lot of his collaborators, or even people who maybe weren't that close to him, feel 'I can do this to help his legacy, or I can do that to help his legacy.' It's like this train that's going 500 miles per hour, and I just thought: I have to stay on this train, because if I don't, I don't know where it's going to go." {The New York Times}
