AceShowbiz - Virgil Abloh's death sent shock waves through his pals and fans. The former artistic director of Louis Vuitton passed away on November 28 of a rare, aggressive form of cancer, which he had secretly battled for more than two years. He was 41 years old.
"He chose to endure his battle privately since his diagnosis in 2019, undergoing numerous challenging treatments, all while helming several significant institutions that span fashion, art, and culture," a statement posted on his Instagram page read. "Through it all, his work ethic, infinite curiosity, and optimism never wavered."
His final LV fashion show was held in Miami on November 30 to honor him, with Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, Quavo, Pharrell Williams, Gunna, Lil Baby, 21 Savage, Joe Jonas, Luka Sabbat, DJ Khaled and more in attendance. Drake, meanwhile, commemorated the late fashion designer with a photo-realistic tattoo of Virgil on his forearm three weeks after his passing.
