YEEZY SEASON 1

One of the highlights, albeit a controversial one, of New York Fashion Week was the FW 2015-16 show/presentation of the Adidas Originals Yeezy Season 1 by Kanye West. The performance art piece was masterminded by Vanessa Beecroft, with whom West has worked for many years. Amidst an overall military mood and flashes of body, the male and female models cast from the streets wore an edgy, at times irrelevant, mix of layered tanks, bombers, sports bras, easy T-shirts and sweatpants. Predictably, the crowd was of the high-wattage kind with Kendall Jenner, Khloé Kardashian, Alexander Wang, Rihanna, Cassie, Diddy, Jay Z, Beyoncé, Kim Kardashian and Anna Wintour, sitting front and center. 2
