The limited edition merchandise includes hoodies, tees, panel caps, bags, posters, postcards, tote bags, books, and more. All of them are adorned with Virgil Abloh-designed patterns from the year 2019.

On its Instagram handle, Brooklyn Museum shared the complete idea behind this exhibition:

“In an exhibition that pulls back the curtain on Abloh’s process, you’ll find prototypes, product designs and new presentations of his finished artworks for which he found inspiration in centuries-old paintings as well as commonplace symbols. Abloh's inventive use of language and quotation marks are engrained in the exhibition, turning the objects he designed and the people who wear his clothing into "Figures of Speech.”

The letterings of “FIGURES OF SPEECH,” “GYMNASTICS art institute,” pixelated “FOS,” “THE SUNROOF OF THE TROJAN HORSE,” “Dark Side of the Rainbow,” and “PYREX 23” are stamped on the front and rear of the tees and hoodies.

The Virgil Abloh: Figures of Speech exhibition, which kicked off on July 1, 2022, at the Brooklyn Museum, will continue till January 29, 2023.
