Kanye West’s Clothing Line Might Surprise Many

While we could digress on the power of money and access and the fact that there are so many talented designers who could benefit from the backing of Kanye West,we also have to acknowledge that the pursuit of one’s dream is one to respect regardless of odds, pedigree or even education. Nonetheless, after Mr West styled this shoot we were ready for catsuits and freakum dresses. Alice Cavanagh who recently got a peek at Kanye West’s clothing line says otherwise:

Two days later I visited his design studio — a surprisingly modest space in the 1st arrondissement, that looked reassuringly like an established atelier. It was a Saturday, but Christine, Louise and two other young designers (one of whom works with Givenchy, no less) were all beavering away. There were sketches out and I am happy to report that I liked what I saw — not a bodystocking jumpsuit in sight. Come October, we could all be pleasantly surprised.
