[@DAMDstudio]

I understand what he means by the switch in your head. I've been stumbling around in the dark looking for that switch for years. Finally found it. As a designer myself, everything finally just clicked. I was working on a concept one day and had a solid idea/representation for it. Then I realized there was another deeper concept within it and it was a whole other brand of its own. And then again, and again. And out of working on just one concept I've developed 5 solid brands. Feel's amazing.

[@alexandratonico3662]

Virgil was and still is such an inspiration! I’m so sad that I just discovered him and his work after he passed😔 I want to be a future designer and would have loved to meet him. Long Live Virgil ❤️❤️❤️

I missed him. I used to listen to his interview and conference while he spoke about art and design. He was not like any rapper/ hiphop/ stylist who had some fame then try to put a label on things and sell. He actually had an art vision and it was a genius one. He communicates art like a tech or an scientist talks about engineering, concise, clear and make senses.

Start your concept whenever you can - this is a big takeaway I got from Virgil's talk. Thank you Virgil!

[@khunzo]

This guy totally agrees with Abloh

[@virgilferrell9079]

Yes perspective is key, I often sit and not only think of the box in the box outside the box but all the angles and of the box itself. And my phrase is: be cool be true be you. Anything and everything is possible through the imagination inspiration creativity. Another one of my catch phrase is: if you can conceive it you can achieve it. Great job Virgil and by the way I like the name LOL

[@fwens9932]

bro honestly, watching his interviews got me confused some times, because he doesn’t give you a straight answer, he wants you to go and figure it out on your own

Because that is honestly the best filtered advice. The ones who figure it out are meant to be here.

@@yugopriest1406 you might have a point his designs tho were not his main focus so don’t even focus on that, it’s who and where he did his designs(LV/ Nike/ Jordan etc) in places your favorite person couldn’t get in without being on the list. Lol.

[@lukethomson448]

@@yugopriest1406Virgil was the 1 who tells those girls what to do… he visualizes the whole “big picture” of the brand and delegates roles to the technical designers. This explains why his title at LV was “Creative Director.” not “fashion designer.” To be clear Virgil had the technical design skill… probably more then most fashion grads (he has a masters degree in architecture.) It’s very necessary in this industry to possess that skill… so you can COMMUNICATE it to your team. I wrote this to clear up all of your uneducated claims. I will not be returning to reply to anyone.

I pray that to Jesus that you start to feel better and not feel physically sick, and find the time. I listened to a podcast clip from Anthony O Neal , here’s the KZbin link : kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6eXnKCQq8SihJI The clip talks about just finding 15 minutes a day, to work on what you want to work on.
