Offset Debuts For LAUNDERED WORKS CORP | FW2020

Fashion Week presentations give us an inside look at season’s hottest looks. This week’s FW Paris lineup included an A-list crowd with plenty of fashionably fresh fits. Brands like LAUNDERED WORKS CORP.  had a few runway tricks up their sleeve. Their show delivered an impressive capsule that featured a ready-to-wear collection designed by Grammy-nominated rapper, Offset. Offset put his footprint in the fashion world by lending his creativity to design pieces for this collection.

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

This FW 2020 endeavor was designed in collaboration with creative director Chaz A. Jordan and ØPUS Brand Studios founder and head of luxury streetwear brand IH NOM UH NIT, OmarJohnson. The end result is a perfect marriage of Hip-Hop and luxury fashion. The trio came together for a myriad of reasons but the most important was to bring business, music, and design together. The simplicity of these designs make these pieces the perfect addition to Fall 2020 closets. The neutral colorway makes the collection easy to style and integrate into an existing wardrobe. The collection includes staple pieces like t-shirts and sweatshirts but shows love to more elaborate pieces like fur coats and two-piece suits. There was close attention to detail when it came to material selection. Since sustainability is a thing, they implemented a recycled cotton basics program into the design construction as well. 

“The F/W 2020 collection serves as a visual and tangible representation of my life’s work until now. The balance of my experiences and world travels over the past 10 years expressed through what we are defining as the new luxury ready-to-wear.” – Chaz A. Jordan

What is a good fit without accessories?

The fellas know that accessories are a must so they incorporated them into the collection as well. They worked with Their Italian factories to design a selection of hats, footwear, and a handbag to compliment the looks. Check out some of the collection below and visit launderedworkscorp.com to shop.

“Both Offset and Chaz have unbelievable creative taste and the influence to seismically move culture. Partnering with them to build a fashion brand from the ground up is why we started Opus. They have the ability to understand what the community wants. We’re here to build the business behind it.” – Omar Johnson
