Off-White’s Virgil Abloh Is Criticized For $50 Donation To Protester’s Bail Fund
As protesters took to the streets in cities worldwide following the death of George Floyd — an unarmed Black man killed after being kneeled on by police in Minneapolis last week — many people, including celebrities, are expressing solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement by donating money to pay for the legal expenses and release of protesters in custody.
While some prominent names are donating huge sums — Chrissy Teigen pledged to donate $200,000 to bail out protesters — others have not. Notably, artistic director of Louis Vuitton’s menswear collection and CEO of Off-White, Virgil Abloh, posted a screenshot on Instagram Stories of a donation he made — for $50.
The news of the donation came after Abloh re-posted photos of looting in Fat Tiger Workshop and RSVP Gallery, which carries Off-White, following protests in Chicago.
After posting a document including links to bail funds and legal help, Abloh included a screenshot of a $50 donation to Fempower. “The Miami community – im crazy inspired. for kids in the streets that need bail funds for George Floyd protests,” he wrote over the donation confirmation.
In response, people questioned the “measly” sum, calling Abloh “cheap.” “Virgil Abloh. Creator of Off-White.. Artistic Director of Louis Vuitton donated a measly $50… and y’all want me to feel bad for designer stores getting looted???” a Twitter user wrote.

I really cannot believe Virgil Abloh has the audacity to post that screenshot of his $50 donation. I’m speechless every time I see it.

Virgil Abloh, founder of Off White & artistic creator of LOUIS VUITTON really had the nerve to share his $50 donation. The audacity. That’s not even half the amount of one his damn keychains. My Off White bags will be going up for sale this week.

#virgilabloh donated $50!! From a CEO of a brand that black people spend thousands on daily! You can’t make this up! But what do you expect from a man that only employs white people but wants to invite every black talent, Musician, athlete etc to sit front row at his shows!! pic.twitter.com/F8xE0X4FlT

Some have pointed out that a pair of socks, one of the lowest-priced items available at Off-White, costs more than the donation Abloh made.
But the thing is he has lucrative peers who could match him. I’ve seen other celebs retweet someone’s match of $100, and donated $1,000. A pair of Off White socks costs more than the $50 he has donated. Meanwhile, black youth are breaking their banks to be fresh in Off white.

You literally can’t even buy anything he sales with that amount — even his Off-White socks alone cost more than that. Alas!

Others have defended the designer, and pointed out that it’s possible Abloh could have donated more money privately.
his intention and generosity behind the 50$ shows he wasn’t posting a high amount for clout like a lot of others… we don’t know how much more he donated.. the humble 50$ is for the public to know.

i honestly wouldn’t be surprised if he donated more and didn’t post it. everyone acting like you are supposed to post what u donated as if it’s a status symbol

In addition to celebrities donating to bailout funds, brands like Rihanna’s Savage Fenty have also publicly contributed to help protesters. Other designers like Brother Vellies’ Aurora James have called on retailers to commit to buying 15% of their stock from Black-owned businesses.

Fashion Brands Lay Out Plans To Support The Black Community
“So many of your businesses are built on Black spending power,” James wrote on Instagram. “So many of your stores are set up in Black communities. So many of your sponsored posts are seen on Black feeds. This is the least you can do for us. We represent 15% of the population and we need to represent 15% of your shelf space.”
Further down in the post, she writes: “So for all of the ‘what can we do to help?’ questions out there, this is my personal answer. #15PercentPledge.”
Other companies have shown support via social media, where they are sharing ways in which to help the movement’s agenda. Others still are taking more significant steps toward change, creating manifestos and guidelines in order to rework the industry’s approach toward the Black community entirely.
Yesterday, Rihanna’s lingerie brand Savage x Fenty posted a plea on Instagram calling for people to #PullUp. “Now’s not the time to stay silent or stand by. Pull TF Up,” the caption says. It also outlines the brand’s plans to donate to The Bail Project, an organization that provides free bail for those who cannot afford to pay it, and @BLMGreaterNY, the New York-specific coalition of the Black Lives Matter movement.
Ahead, we’ve put together a list of all the fashion companies who have spoken up so far as a result of this weekend's protests. Read their messages and support them in their efforts.
