A top London designer has dubbed Kanye West's new fashion house as the next big thing. Yes Kanye donated a huge amount of money to the designer's fashion school, but what does that have to do with anything...?
Professor Louise Wilson, the director of the MA in fashion course at Central Saint Martins tells The UK Guardian,
"Kanye’s visit was in part to employ interns for his label, and it's important to mention that he's supported our fashion school and made an immediate donation to Saint Martins, which perhaps further demonstrates his passion for the industry.
"I've known him for two years now and he's incredibly knowledgeable about fashion, he's a global phenomenon and a very interesting person. I think we can expect a well-considered collection, you wouldn't expect less from a pair of professionals and I warn against dismissing it in haste. There are those who might assume Louise Goldin will be doing all the work and Kanye is just the face, I don't believe this will be the case – he researches thoroughly and is hands on and committed to his work.
We have never rejected him from our fashion course at Saint Martins, because he has never applied. But I suspect he would like to."
Kanye is excepted to debut his line during this year's New York Fashion week.
