In celebration of this exclusive collaboration, Saks dedicated its prominent center six Fifth Avenue windows to feature themed visual installations designed by Virgil for Off-White celebrating the arts, including acting, painting and literature. The takeover also included pop-up displays throughout the store – one of which is modeled after a record shop and features listening stations where customers can enjoy a playlist curated by Virgil.
Attendees at the soiree not only got a chance to check out the collaboration first-hand, but also enjoyed a menu of signature L’Avenue at Saks dishes as well as desserts by Pierre Hermé, acclaimed French pastry chef and L’Avenue at Saks partner.
