He’s a huge lover of all things fashion so it comes as no surprise that Kanye West will launch his very own, Gold Digger-worthy clothing line.
The rapper is currently working on a womenswear collection with British designer Louise Goldin. How do we know? Because super-scary Central St. Martins professor Louise Wilson said so!
“I have known Kanye for about two years. He is very knowledgeable about fashion and interested - he is also interesting, he has an individual point of view."
An individual pointof view. That's one way of putting it...
The MA Fashion course director said West had popped along to CSM a couple of times. She also revealed Kanye gave the prestigious design school a donation to show his support.
His individual style has attracted its fair amount of criticism in the past, though that never stopped Kanye throwing on a gold suit or a leopard print bomber jacket for a front row appearance at some of the top fashion shows.
Wilson told the Guardian, ” I think we can expect a well-considered collection, you wouldn't expect less from a pair of professionals and I warn against dismissing it in haste. There are those who might assume Louise will be doing all the work and Kanye is just the face, I don't believe this will be the case - he researches thoroughly and is hands on and committed to his work.”
Are we going to argue with the ‘dictator of style’ Louise Wilson? Err...NO!
So, tell us heatworld - what are you predictions for Kayne’s first collection? We’re thinking, shock, shock with a dash of SHOCK, yes?
According to P!nk, in 2009 Kanye sat front row at a Stella McCartney show shouting, “They need more fur in this show!” Not the best idea when the president of PETA and Sir Paul McCartney are sat right by you…
