If you turned off your computer for the weekend, didn’t check your phone and/or remained totally cut off from any and all Paris Fashion Week coverage, you may not have heard that Kanye West staged his first fashion show. DW by Kanye West, named for the rapper’s late mother, debuted in the library of the Lycée Henri IV on the Left Bank of Paris. Beyoncé and Jay-Z did not sit front row, as rumored, but plenty of other A-list stars, like the Olsens, Alexander Wang, Joseph Altuzarra, Azzedine Alaia and most top editors and buyers, did. West’s casting was equally as impressive. Eric Wilson reports that West called Chanel Iman the day before the show and asked her to fly in from New York to walk (cue the girlfriend rumors). Anja Rubik, Ruby Aldridge, Eniko Mihalik, Bambi Northwood-Blyth, Jourdan Dunn, Abbey Lee, Anna Selezneva, and Karlie Kloss joined Iman on the all-white runway. The critics, most of whom have sat by or near West at fashion shows over the past few years, are divided on whether it was great, an OK start, or a ill-fitting mess. We’re mostly concerned, given West’s penchant for wearing Céline shirts and Phillip Lim jackets, with what pieces he’ll wear first. The shiny bomber jacket, at left, is a given. Fashion’s most revered female designers of the moment, like Stella McCartney and Phoebe Philo, often say they design what they want to wear, and we’re going to go ahead and guess that West designed this jacket with his own closet in mind. The pants in the middle, on Irina K, are similar to the Céline shirt West famously wore on stage at Coachella, but we imagine he’ll pair them with a white tee come spring. The fur at right may be better suited to a fall runway, but West could throw it over the pants and jacket before winter’s out. And lastly, though even West might not be able to pull off the strappy sandals he sent out with body-con dresses and silver suits, their puffy straps will easily translate into a pair of custom sneakers. What did you think of the collection? Anything else stick out for it’s West potential?
