Kanye prepares unusual fashion show!
Homeless people will be in the role of models, and he is also working on a garbage bag jacket.
Rapper Kanye West, 44, is worried about the growing number of homeless people in Los Angeles. He decided to raise public awareness of the problem in his own way. He will put the homeless people in the role of models of his fashion show , writes TMZ.
In the new collection, West's brand Yeezy will cooperate with the streetwear brand Skid Row Fashion Week, and together they are preparing a show aimed to help the homeless. Skid Row Fashion Week is a brand that donates part of its profits to people living on the streets of Skid Row, a large homeless community in Los Angeles. They also employ homeless people in their factories.
Brand founder David Sebastian met with Kanye earlier this month and agreed to collaborate. All proceeds from the Yeezy X Skid Row Fashion Week collection will be donated to help the homeless, he said. Also, Kanye and David are planning a fashion show to present the collection, which will come out on February 22nd. On that occasion, homeless people working in the SRFW factory should walk the runway.
The issue of street life will also be reflected in the clothing items of the upcoming collaboration. Namely, Kanye is currently working on a winter jacket from a garbage bag. The rapper recently discussed the problem at a meeting with local authorities.
Recall, many fans of this rapper, but also fashion fans, wondered what was going on. Why did Kanye in all his recent public appearances wear exclusively Balenciaga, as he did? Knowing the work of Kanye West, everything is possible.
However, he was unusually silent about the collaboration, so for now we can only speculate about the most anticipated fashion collaboration so far in 2022. Gap announced that the new project will be released under the name Yeezy Gap Engineered By Balenciaga, as the first such collaboration that connects the most influential designer of his generation, Demna Gvasalia. He is the main creative and director of Balenciaga, with the cult American brand Gap. West has a ten-year contract with Gap, which began in 2020, and the project marks the next step in their collaboration. So far only a few items have been released under the Yeezy Gap brand.
On the other side, Kim Kardashian (41)was upset because of the comments of her ex-husband, which he made in his new interview for Hollywood Unlocked. In an interview with Jason Lee, West claimed he had an argument with his wife’s security team when he once got his oldest daughter in front of the school. At one point, the rapper claimed, security guards, did not allow him to take his 8-year-old daughter North home.
