Luxury fashion label Off-White is bringing a touch of Italian style to Londoners, with the opening of a local store this week. The 344 sqm at 32 Sloane St, Knightsbridge, is sleek and minimalist in its design, bringing together the vision of the Off-White design team and spatial designer, Andrew Taylor Parr. The store houses the brand’s Menswear and Womenswear collections. Image: Supplied Warm, feminine tones provide a perfectly soft backdrop for the brand’s menswear and womenswear col

Curved lounges add softness, while a selection of plinths and sculptures give strength and substance to the store. Parr created the plinths installation himself, taking inspiration from Brancusi sculptures.

While Off-White has independent stores scattered around major cities globally, it is also a favourite of high end department stores including Barneys, Selfridges, Harrods and Le Bon Marché.

The label, which was established in 2013, prides itself on “defining the grey area between black and white as a color”.
All the way from its design studio based in Milan, Off-White’s seasonal collections focus on creating garments that have an “identity by design”.
