Ikea Always Delivers Design and Value

Ikea is also known for easy and ready-to-assemble furniture and home accessories. You know the items were intelligently designed not only to cut costs but also save space and value. And as with any other big household brands, Ikea has collaborated with many other names. The latest of which is Virgil Abloh.

Abloh is an American entrepreneur, fashion designer, artist, and DJ more known for his ties with Louis Vuitton where he is the artistic director of the men’s wear collection at LV. He is currently the CEO of fashion house Off-White since 2013.

He is known in the fashion industry for his work and ties with Kanye. Everything about him makes him worthy to be tapped by Ikea. It’s been talked about for a couple of years now and the Ikea x Virgil Abloh Collection is dropping.

Fun Fashion for Everyone

The millenials will love most of Abloh’s line in Ikea starting with the Markerad line which will only be sold in stores. This means if you want to get first dibs, you have to go to an Ikea store on November 1, as early as 7 AM, to get inside at 10 AM. You need a wristband to get in and have a chance to buy statement pieces from Abloh. The 15-item collection can be availed but you can only buy one at a time.
