Kanye West set to debut first womenswear collection during Paris Fashion Week Spring 2012 in October

Kanye West will unveil his first womenswear collection during Paris fashion week. The S/S 2012 collection will be shown as apart of the official schedule at 9.30pm on October 1, directly after Jean Paul Gauliter and Loewe, contrary to reports that West was going for a presentation-style format for key editors only. The looks are being kept under lock and key but we’re already getting excited for the most talked-about show of the season which, if it’s anything like its designer, is sure to be larger than life.

We all know that his original collection Pastelle is defunct but rumors swirled for months about this womenswear collection! I was skeptical but then it was confirmed by numerous sources such as NY Mag. It was also revealed that Kanye was working w/the likes of Central St. Martin alum Louise Goldin and consulting w/Harper’s Bazaar Australia editor/freelance stylist Christine Centenera on the collection.
