Designer & Fashion Insiders Behavior (PLEASE READ POST #1 BEFORE POSTING)

[Salvatore]

What. Is. Happening.
I feel Kanye is really about to go through some things. Matthew Williams is really about to lose his job already, but this is making it worse and he’ll probably never work in high fashion again.

 

[GivenchyAddict]

In his craziness, he said a few things right on this post.

 

[Overindulgence]

I wouldn't mind seeing the "walls" of LVMH fall a bit. And I don't mean that fully in an anti-capitalist way, just more so stems from my annoyances with how they've treated their brands and designers over the past decade. Though I'm not sure if I want Kanye to be the martyr of that since he's making it all about himself.

I do wonder how Kering, specifically Demna, is gearing to handle this. He's already coming after people associated with Balenciaga. If I was Demna, I'd regret having Kanye so associated with Balenciaga and being engulfed into that circle - it's too late to back away from that relationship and Kanye has proven to burn every bridge, especially with the people he used to praise.

 

[THD96]

Well the positive outcome of his rant is that he is burning all the bridges not only for himself but also all the yes-men in his life. If that mean we never have to see those talentless hack like MMW at historic houses again. Be my guest, burn it all down. You are doing this industry a huge favor.

 

[MulletProof]

^ not really, he's quite populist.. he may not have the 'powerful' people on his side but he collects the dimes of a large collective made up by the leeches, the bottom feeders, the people who reject critical thinking or even basic education for the immediate and easy reward of witnessing 'outrage' or the breadcrumbs of public attention in the shape of an antagonizing figure that demands nothing from them but to clap their hands like monkeys (aka. the majority of the people). And among them are also those who, through sources they can't themselves identify, somehow repeat this idea that he made an unparalleled contribution to music lol (he had one catchy album, EVERYONE you know in popular music has had one catchy album, why do you think you know them lol). He's only talked about and relevant because the Kardashians prolonged and solidified his celebrity. There would be no line of sweatpants, church and definitely no Presidential hopes without them.

The man is self-destructive, at this point that could be his more dignified move and fastest way to turn public opinion around. Like Britney Spears, he clearly OD'ed once or several times and not having oxygen going through your brain even for just a handful of minutes really rewires everything in your head, he's not okay and will never be.. unless treated of course, but he can clearly afford to go untreated.

I can't even find entertainment in this. Incoherent rants from a mentally unstable person. What a sad theater.

 

[Salvatore]

In more Kanye news, it seems his Adidas collaboration is now in jeopardy due to his recent rantings.

Adidas says its relationship with Kanye West is under review

 

[tapenerd]

All his relationships should be under review. That man has so many enablers around him.

 

[yslforever]

$1m at Balenciaga ?! That is a lot of money for a lot of ugly.

it's not that much, the VIP customer section at Saint-Laurent is at 2 millions.

 

[Salvatore]

it's not that much, the VIP customer section at Saint-Laurent is at 2 millions.

But personally I can see spending that at YSL. But at Balenciaga, I can’t. RTW that is.

 

[Frederic01]

Make that 4 million!

I hope he actually gets permanently banned from Twitter and Instagram, and that Adidas drops him (which I think is what he is actually trying to achieve), yet I suspect this will all be brushed under the rug and he’ll be back at it again in 6 months or so. Pathetic scum.

Maybe this is a babyish standpoint, but it upsets me that more people aren't upset about this. And it's not just Kanye saying crazy things, before the tweet was taken down, it had many tens of thousands of likes, and his hateful sh!t on instagram gets hundreds of thousands if not millions of likes. I'm sorry but a billionaire with real influence and millions of adoring fans/enablers threatening "death con 3" on Jews should be front page news everywhere. Just because he got the phrase wrong doesn't mean this maniac can't cause real damage. When someone threatens you, believe them. Do I think Kanye himself is about to launch some kind of physical attack on someone? No. Do I think his words could incite attacks from others? Yes. There have already been attacks from somealt-right and from some "free Palestine" protestors, Kanye just validates and encourages more of the same.

 

[susseinmcswanny]

I started to watch some of Kanye's new interview and it actually made me sick how big his platform is. Every so often, I guess because a broken clock is right twice a day, he will make a lot of sense. But his views on everything have become so myopic and contradictory to what is actually coming out of his mouth that there is no way to take him seriously. How do you say you want to do better for your people while simultaneously trying to suck the money out already broke people like a manipulative leech to fulfill your desire to become a billionaire. Is he just jealous and going nuts because he wasn't invited into the exclusive capitalist club? Why the f*ck would anyone fight for you when you are only interested in yourself. Black capitalism is still capitalism. Period. Read a f*cking book. And!! To blanket statement scapegoat jewish people because a certain group of powerful people right now are jewish is so crazy. Jewish people are not an evil cabal. Ok Adolf. I'm sure all the hypebeasts, free thinkers, and high-value males are gonna eat this right up. This whole meltdown is a guerilla marketing childish tantrum with tons of collateral damage. Talking about serious global issues uttered under the same breath as something like "Demna is the greatest designer on earth". Okay. So we know you're actually all about. Just a man with a stunted dilletante 16 year old boy brain who wants attention and to be regarded as cool. NEXT.

 

[tapenerd]

He’s clearly ill. And I don’t like mental health being an excuse for someone to be downright terrible (I have a mental illness myself). He has isolated himself from everyone he was once friends with. And now people like Candace Owens are cashing in on this. It’s honestly really sad to see. I hope all the Kanye stans wake up and stop worshipping this man.

 

[upNorth]

Balenciaga has now cut ties with Kanye West as per WWD.

 

[susseinmcswanny]

Kanye's team dumped all the white lives matter shirts on skid row. Somebody's lil art project is going a little too far babes

 

[THD96]

Balenciaga has now cut ties with Kanye West as per WWD.

Oh, that's sad.

Anyway, stream Midnights by Taylor Swift.

 

[Scotty]

Good. He needs locking up.

Though I do feel bad about liking Yeezy shoes and it's a shame that they might stop production, but I'm hoping they're actually ghost-designed by a design team and not actually him.
