Virgil Abloh Responds to Off-White's Lack of Diversity Criticism

"My design team is diverse as the world is big." 
Fashion has always had a diversity issue, and while the industry has made great strides in addressing it, there's still a lot of work left to be done. 

So when Virgil Abloh shared a behind-the-scenes photo of him celebrating his Milan-based Off-White staff at a party, fans were quick to notice the lack of black employees at the label. #Abloh posted photos of his graphic team and a group of art directors, which he called "crazy crazy talented kids," all of whom were white. In a viral tweet, one user wrote, "Not gonna lie I thought #virgil-Abloh would have some black people working with him but I’m not surprised."
