The fashion world experienced distressing times when the shocking news of iconic fashion designer, Virgil Abloh’s passing came in November last year. Many celebrities, colleagues, friends, and fans celebrated the incredible life he led in various ways. And over the past year, people have continued to celebrate him and his legacy. This time, it’s the luxury department store, Nordstrom that’s heading the celebration. In partnership with the late designer’s estate, Concept 018: Virgil Abloh Securities was born to commemorate the versatility of the designer in the creative space. And it is the newest edition of Nordstrom’s pop-up series. Nordstrom took it a step further by committing to supporting the Virgil Abloh™ “Postmodern” Scholarship Fund.

I have some exciting news for die-hard followers of Devi Vishwakumar and the never-ending drama that is her teenage life.

The weekend is already looking up as Season 3 of Never Have I Ever is out now on Netflix!
