Kanye's Clothes

We all know that Kanye has dipped his toe, make that foot into the fashion world. From designing sneakers for Louis Vuitton, Nike and interning at the Gap we were all expecting a Kanye line very soon. That line would be Pastelle. Kanye had been spotted wearing pieces from the line (above) and the below pictures had made their way around the net. Well, that line may be put on the back burner right now, waaay back. No real reason given, just don't expect to see it in stores any time soon. Apparently, Mr. West will be releasing a line in his own name in the near future. How near? You tell me....

Kanye Falls Into the Gap

Really, Kanye! After successful collaborations with Nike (Air Yeezy) and an upscale sneaker deal with Louis Vuitton, Kanye still isn't done! He may be a college dropout but somehow he ended up being an intern at none other than the Gap. Not sure what the term "intern" means in Kanye-speak but, I'm not convinced he's off getting coffee or filing papers for the higher ups. Just what will he get out of this internship besides invaluable knowledge? My guess is there won't be any college credit given. Perhaps, something more substantial is on the table. Let's not be surprised if Gap suddenly has a collection of clothing on it's racks with a certain Chicago-bred rapper's swagger. I'm just sayin'. Because being a superstar rapper, producer, director, entrepreneur isn't enough, right? If only my internships had turned out so well.

Kanye's Kicks, Numero Dos

As if the Louis Vuitton kicks weren't enough, Kanye West has released his shoe for Nike as well.
The highly anticipated Air Yeezys hit stores, with the first of three colorways—Zen Grey— this month. West’s kicks are limited to select retailers, including all Foot Locker House of Hoops locations, and carry a price tag of $215. As soon as they hit store shelves... they pretty much sold out. A black version of the shoe will be on sale starting May 2 and a third color will hit stores in June. They are more affordable than the pricey Louis Vuitton sneaks. Still, glimmers of hope and all, we're in a recession people!
