時裝產業之所以令人敬畏，或許是因為「勇敢」吧！疫情尚未趨緩的2021，沒有人知道未來會發生什麼事，以及何時才能前往其他的國家，過著以往被稱為「正常」的生活。
網路時代的崛起，對於時裝產業來說原本是極大的挑戰，因為不同品牌的手機，不一樣的社群，讓以往只有幾個特定標準規格的品牌得開始絞盡腦汁突破。網路社群媒體無庸置疑地是發布最新消息最快的途徑。但這看似便捷的平台，似乎也讓人與人之間的連結開始消失。
不過 Off-White™品牌創始人兼創意總監Virgil Abloh似乎不這樣認為，他提到：「希望藉由公眾平台搭起人與人之間的橋樑，使用全球性的語言將距離拉得更近，即便我們相隔千里，也要連結起來。」
Virgil Abloh 即將透過網路發表 Off-White™ 2021春夏男女裝系列，以這個品牌的名氣而言，全世界的媒體自然都會主動關注，但若你想要透過自己的雙眼來見證 Virgil Abloh 的論點，那麼在 2 月 2 日開秀前登入，並完成註冊，便可知道他提出的論述是否你也同意。

In 2021, when the pandemic has not slowed down, no one knows what will happen in the future and when they will be able to travel to other countries and live a so-called 'normal' life.
The rise of the Internet era was a massive challenge for the fashion industry because different mobile phones and different social media have no unified specification. Hence, even it's a convenient way to do promotion. It still a challenge.
However, social media is undoubtedly a way to announce the latest news fastly. But the seemingly convenient platform perhaps is vanishing the real connection between all of us.
"Think personal connections through a public platform, connecting the dots of distance through a global language. Linking up, even though we may be thousands of miles apart." - Virgil Abloh
Italian fashion house Off-White™ is going to unveil the Spring/Summer 2021 collection with both Menswear and Womenswear. Creative director Virgil Abloh seems promising the social media won't create the distance between us; instead, it will make us closer than ever. Do you agree to his words? Why don't you see by yourself and discuss it after the show.
