“Designing my own clothes has been a fulfilling experience to express my love for fashion,” the rapper shared. “My collection represents success from scratch, meaning starting from poverty was part of my path to luxury. Never forget where you came from.”

The theme of Offset’s journey from poverty to luxury is evident within the collection, as it represents the growing connection between hip-hop and luxury and its rebalancing of power—paving the road to a “New Luxury.” Drawing inspiration from Chaz. A Jordan’s travels—specifically to Paris and Italy—the collection offers elevated basics, fusing the rapper’s signature style into each of the pieces. Additionally, the team worked closely with Italian factories to complement the collection with accessories like hats, footwear and handbags.
