Ib Kamara, the creative director of Off White, imagined America and more specifically New York from an African perspective for the brand's New York Fashion Week debut. The show, set against the backdrop of the city at Brooklyn Bridge Park's Pier 2, transformed the space into a giant basketball court.

Kamaru wears Kiko Kostadinov JacketWords Anisha KhemlaniPhotography Jack van GíapJoseph Kamaru, clad in a dark brown shirt, sits at a desk in a hotel room, looking into his laptop. Faded mint curtains, a lampshade and off-white walls close in to suggest the smallness of his space.
