Guests were treated to a first look at the brand's Fall/Winter 2018 collection, as well as RTW apparel and accessories which, you guessed right, went flying off the shelves and racks as soon as the doors opened. The Manila Exclusive tee and hoodie were sold out as well, proving that Off-White is a sure favorite in country's stylish crowd.
