Virgil Abloh has designed a bracelet to raise money for UNICEF, with sales from each piece leading to R1 517 being donated to the charity.
The 39-year-old creative director’s Silver Lockit is the latest addition to Louis Vuitton’s LVforUNICEF collection, and R 1 517 from the sale of each of the R6 526 pieces will be donated to the organisation, to help provide children in areas of conflict or disaster with access to basic resources such as water, sanitation, nutrition, education, health, and protection services.
The design is influenced by the fashion house’s spring/summer 2020 collection and features a twisted cord – in one of four colours, black, orange, green, and blue speckled with yellow – linked by a small silver padlock bearing Louis Vuitton’s iconic logo.
