Kanye West ‘plans to have homeless people model’ in upcoming Yeezy fashion show

KANYE West is expanding his fashion empire, collaborating with designer David Sabastian and his Skidrow Fashionweek streetwear brand.

And the two are planning a one-of-a-kind fashion show that will feature homeless people modeling their clothes.

According to TMZ, Kanye and David met earlier this month while Ye was recording Donda 2.

The pair eventually decided to create a Yeezy X Skidrow Fashionweek clothing line.

Skidrow Fashionweek hires homeless people living on skid row to bring the fashions to life, and all profits from the new line will go towards helping those living on Skid Row.

The fashion line is set to drop at the end of February, and the 44-year-old rapper and his new partner are working on a special fashion show where the homeless Skid Row employees would model their work.

FASHION FORWARD

Kanye has always been fashion forward, most recently at a Paris Fashion Week show he attended with new girlfriend Julia Fox.

The two were dressed head-to-toe in black leather as they attended the Schiaparelli catwalk show, with Kanye covering his face with a matching balaclava.

Julia, 31, wore full-length boots as she completed her look with huge gold earrings and a matching metallic handbag.

Kanye’s biker styling saw him wearing his now trademark moon boots and padded gloves.

But as the rapper’s eyes peeped out from behind the facial covering, the pair’s outfits appeared to be a nod to his ex Kim Kardashian‘s Met Gala look from last year.

Kim, 41, who filed for divorce from Kanye last February, turned heads on the red carpet at the Met Gala last year, covering her entire face and body in black material.

DONDA DROPPINGS

The February 22 clothing drop is the same day Kanye’s new album, Donda 2, comes out.

The announcement was made in a Twitter post on Wednesday.

Complex Music shared a photo of a house on fire, while text above the image read: “2.22.22.”

The account confirmed Kanye’s new album in coming next month, as they captioned the post: “DONDA 2 FEBRUARY 22ND.”

The new album will be a follow up to the rapper’s album Donda, which was released in August 2021.

Kanye’s new album was revealed after Variety reported the rapper commenced work on the record.

Steven Victor, the chief operating officer of Kanye’s label G.O.O.D. Music, told Complex of the news: “Ye has started working on his new masterpiece, ‘Donda 2.'”

Donda 2 will mark the eleventh entry and the first sequel album in the Kanye’s discography.
