The Univers group, led by its president Jappy Gonzalez, the exclusive Philippine distributor of Off-White, pays tribute to Virgil Abloh who passed away on November 28, at the age of 41, after a two-year battle with cardiac angiosarcoma cancer.

Adorning the newly opened Off-White Greenbelt 3 store with hundreds of sunflowers against a sign with the statement "Virgil Forever," they join the world in commemorating the vast contributions of the revolutionary creative force who championed inclusion and street culture. Gonzalez shared, "Abloh was very inspiring, especially to the youth. His message was unrelenting, that anything is possible. He was such a big force in making fashion culturally relatable."
