During Paris Fashion Week SS19, Highsnobiety stopped by Virgil Abloh and IKEA's showroom to get a closer look at some of the best pieces from the pair's upcoming collection.

While there, we talked to IKEA creative lead Henrik Most and Abloh about what the collection represents. Bridging the gap between art, fashion, music, and design, the primary goal was to fashion a home for millennials that strongly reflects their identity.
