In 2020, after the murder of George Floyd, Abloh established the Postmodern Scholarship Fund to help Black students and promote diversity in fashion. Louis Vuitton was one of the first backers of the fund, which raised about $1 million; three beneficiaries of the scholarship are interning at Vuitton. "The idea is to develop a trajectory I wish I had had when I was starting out," Abloh said. His new role, he added, is to open doors for nontraditional luxury candidates at all points of the industry, from entry level to the top. Maybe especially at the top. "I focus on relevancy," he said. "Relevancy is my metric."
