The star oozed grace as she proved that simplicity is sometimes best in the straight cut dress that fanned out slightly at the ground.

A band of the black crepe fabric was worn as choker around her neck and she kept the rest of her accessories to a minimum.

The outfit was complete with long sleeves that mirrored the silhouette of the dress as they reached to her hands.

Tribute: Monday's event will no doubt pay tribute to Virgil Abloh, who made history as Louis Vuitton's first black artistic director, and died at age 41

Monday’s event will no doubt pay tribute to Virgil Abloh, who made history as Louis Vuitton’s first black artistic director, and died at age 41 on Sunday following a secret years-long battle with cancer.

The fashion prodigy, a married father of two, had been privately battling a rare form of the disease called cardiac angiosarcoma. He was diagnosed with the condition in 2019.

‘We are all shocked by this terrible news, Virgil was not only a genius designer, a visionary, he was also a man with a beautiful soul and great wisdom,’ Louis Vuitton executive director Bernault Arnault said in a statement.

‘The LVMH family joins me in this moment of great sorrow and we are all thinking of his loved ones after the pᴀssing of their husband, their brother, their father or their friend.’

His designs were supported by the biggest names in fashion, including Kim Kardashian, Kanye West, Hailey Bieber, and sisters Bella and Gigi Hadid.

Italian fashion designer Donatella Versace was among many celebrities to pay tribute to Abloh on Sunday.

‘Virgil, I am lost for words,’ Versace said on Instagram. ‘The world has lost a fashion superstar. An innovator. A creator for the history books. I am thinking of all your loved ones on this tragic day.’

Born on September 30, 1980 in Chicago, the first generation Ghanaian-American Abloh was raised in Rockford, Illinois.

Although having no formal training as a designer, he learned from his mother who was a seamstress.

On the day he graduated from engineering school in 2003, Virgil met Kanye West and went on to meet his then-manager John Monopoly. He became a member of his creative team soon after.

Abloh began his fashion career in 2009 when he interned for Fendi in Rome, Italy, alongside West, Vogue reported.

The pair became fast friends and collaborators, and in 2010 Abloh was named creative director of West’s creative content agency Donda.

News of his death sent shockwaves rippling through social media, where celebrities and fans expressed shock and offered condolences.
