Kanye West debuts fashion line
By

Tweet
The hip hop star, who famously wore a women’s shirt from Celine for a performance at the 2011 Coachella Music Festival, debuted his women’s fashion line at Paris Fashion Week on Saturday.
US
Vogue
editor Anna Wintour, former French
Vogue
editor Carine Roitfeld, musician Jared Leto and actresses-turned-fashion designers Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen were just a few of the famous faces at the library of the Lycee Henri IV to see the collection, reports
Time
magazine’s newsfeed
.
And Kanye’s star power didn’t end there. The fashion blog
The Cut
says Chanel Iman, Karlie Kloss, Anja Rubik, and Izabel Goulart all graced the catwalk in DW by Kanye West designs.
The fashion line is named after West’s late-mother, Donde, reports Toronto’s
The Star
.
But all this star power wasn’t enough to keep the critics at bay.
In an analysis of the show,
Style
said: “What we actually saw was something that looked like a baby Balmain vision of womenswear.”
Christina Binkley, on her
Wall Street Journal
blog
, said: “The only thing more painful than witnessing the dress was watching the model pitch down the runway in shoes so ill-fitting that her spike heels were bending at angles.”
Fashion blogger for the
New York Times
Runway
, did not mince words either. “What Mr. West eventually showed was confusing as well. Though designers in Paris are presenting collections for next spring and summer this week, Mr. West’s collection was heavy on leather, fur and coats, some pieces dripping with so much fox you couldn’t tell if they were stoles or backpacks.”
Ouch! We will reserve comment on Kanye’s fashion line and let you decide for yourself.
