Virgil Abloh - "STARTING YOUR OWN BRAND" 

“life is so short you can’t waste a day” hit different

My favorite part is the analogy about the candle and the room it sits in. The perspective Virgil brings is so High level

That guy should start a new brand called "mhhm" I think it'd be dope.

Mans with the “mhmm” sent me 😅

Man..... Rest in peace to the legend he showed us you can turn a streetwear brand into a full Italian luxury brand and that the underdog can be creative director for Louis Vuitton this man is the definition of goals

"Life is so short, you cant waste a day" hits different !!!

Virgil was such a pioneer in the fashion industry when it wasn’t a lot of new ideas circulating.

Buddy said "Mhm" 99 times.

R.I.P Virgil, huge inspiration.

“Life is so short that you can’t waste even a day subscribing to what someone thinks you can do, versus knowing what you can do.”

I understand what he means by the switch in your head. I've been stumbling around in the dark looking for that switch for years. Finally found it. As a designer myself, everything finally just clicked. I was working on a concept one day and had a solid idea/representation for it. Then I realized there was another deeper concept within it and it was a whole other brand of its own. And then again, and again. And out of working on just one concept I've developed 5 solid brands. Feel's amazing.

I missed him. I used to listen to his interview and conference while he spoke about art and design. He was not like any rapper/ hiphop/ stylist who had some fame then try to put a label on things and sell. He actually had an art vision and it was a genius one. He communicates art like a tech or an scientist talks about engineering, concise, clear and make senses.

Virgil was and still is such an inspiration! I’m so sad that I just discovered him and his work after he passed😔 I want to be a future designer and would have loved to meet him. Long Live Virgil ❤️❤️❤️

1:16-- it really is and he is proof of this, but look how much he accomplished in his relatively short life span! Inspiring...

miss this guy.. a legend!! he said it and did it..

"NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE, THE WORD ITSELF SAYS I'M POSSIBLE " - SUBBED !

This guy totally agrees with Abloh

The “ the life is so short” part hit different…😢 thank you Virgil

Bro is listening to a legend and alls he says is “mhm”….

Life is short........................love this guy #inspirational

Life is short it definitely is too short to be living a life that you don’t wanna live

Yes perspective is key, I often sit and not only think of the box in the box outside the box but all the angles and of the box itself. And my phrase is: be cool be true be you. Anything and everything is possible through the imagination inspiration creativity. Another one of my catch phrase is: if you can conceive it you can achieve it. Great job Virgil and by the way I like the name LOL

Virgil was so inspirational bro.

Start your concept whenever you can - this is a big takeaway I got from Virgil's talk. Thank you Virgil!

i miss him. he was so innovative yet too humble minded

Lots of great points in 5 min! 👏

Un visionario… que pena que nos dejara tan pronto

great advice R.I.P Virgil .... thank you.

I remember a few years back when he had a karge number of shoe releases and people of the sneaker community were confused. It made sense after the announcement of his illness. RIP Virgil your designs are here forever.
