BBC Three, Tuesday. 9pm

-

This documentar­y explores the life of legendary designer Virgil Abloh, tracking his spectacula­r ascent from Kanye West’s right-hand man to his role as artistic director of menswear at Louis Vuitton.

Virgil was an iconoclast who smashed perception­s of the “high” and the “low” combining streetwear with high fashion while openly sharing his tools with a new generation.

The film charts his unconventi­onal path to the top along with the struggles he faced. Contributo­rs include DJ Benji B and rapper and singer Headie One.
