Though this Off-White mask, designed by Virgil Abloh, was released for Spring Summer 2020, it is almost a direct replica of a mask Off-White originally produced for Spring Summer 2019. Since May 2017, each collection has featured similar masks, and many of them are now highly collectable and traded on reseller marketplace sites including StockX.

MASK PACKAGING TAGS
Off-White
July 2020
The packaging for the Off-White mask in the exhibition employs various digital methods to ensure the object's authenticity and track it. These include barcodes, QR codes, Certilogo, and RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tagging. However, the ability to track goods after they have been purchased raises privacy and security concerns.
