R.I.P. to slim… I was talkin’ big shyt about him and his fam awhile back all the while window shopping off-white shoes. :francis:

You never know what people are going thru.

Would your opinion be different if you knew he was ill?

I personally didn’t care for his designs, and I’m not going to change my opinion. However, this is unfortunate news, and my condolences to his family friends, and fans.

Respectfully I don’t know why people are trying to make others feel bad for criticising his designs and choices, just because we now know he was ill.

This isn’t even remotely comparable to Chadwick…Where people were questioning and running jokes about his appearance whilst he battled his illnes.

Virgils appearance was never at the forefront of any “hate”, criticism or memes regarding his sometimes questionable and thought provoking work.

Virgil wasn’t above criticism and in cases didn’t help himself.

Let’s not suddenly jump on our moral high horses today…And simply away from the fact we’ve lost a talented individual to the evil that is cancer.

RIP Virgil and thank you for your contributions.


Well said.
