Off-White Expands into Beauty with their New “PAPERWORK” Boxes

Since its creation, Off-White has been known for shaking up the streetwear and luxury market; now, their newest venture is set to do the same for the beauty industry.

Launching in early September, Off-White is releasing “PAPERWORK” boxes, a range of products inspired by the sensory aspects of our experiences: touch, sight and smell. The Olfactive, Imprint and Colour Matter boxes are each filled with different products for different parts of the body to fulfil Virgil Abhloh’s vision of using beauty as “another canvas, another surface for human expression”.

The products include nail polish, body pigment crayons and fragrances, all accompanied by a Masters of the Universe figure, another reminder of Virgil’s vision for all Off-White customers–to embrace their inner child.

They took to Instagram to announce the collaboration, but there’s no word yet on when it will be released–only that the dress will be available for pre-order soon.
