The rapper-designer kicked out all credentialed press moments before
the presentation was set to begin on Wednesday afternoon, E! News
confirms. Additionally, attendees were not allowed to take photos, video and post on social media, though details and snapshots did make it online.
Sitting in the front row was Kim Kardashian
,
dressed head to toe in a burgundy sweatsuit. The E! reality star was
photographed in New York City wearing the same outfit earlier today.
Also in attendance and sitting next to Kanye's wife of nearly three years was Vogue's Anna Wintour. Hailey Baldwin and La La Anthony were photographed together wearing oversized white sweatshirts.
E! News can report Kylie Jenner and Tygaarrived five minutes into the show starting. Zoƫ Kravitz and Teyana Taylor, the star of Kanye's "Fade" music video, rappers Pusha T and A$AP Ferg settled into the front row as well.
As
the show began, 360-degree videos of male and female models wearing all
denim and military-inspired ensembles were projected onto a screen as a
remix of J. Holiday's "Bed" (performed by The Dream) played in the background for the show's entire duration. A blond model dressed in a sherpa-lined denim jacket, baggy jeans and brown boots opened the show.
Kim
shared videos of the his fifth collaboration with Adidas to her
Snapchat, as models walked a square-shaped runway with a massive black
cube in the center. Pitch black curtains hung from floor-to-ceiling
draped the entire venue.
One jacket
featured the Kardashian's Los Angeles hometown of Calabasas, as well as
Lost Hills and Agoura embroidered in large type on the back. A separate
black and white wind breaker
also had "Calabasas" emblazoned across it. West played with more colors
than previous collections have featured, utilizing teal, red and navy
blue as staples throughout his pieces.
Chunky, thigh-high boots and sneakers very unlike
Kanye's famous Yeezy shoes were featured predominantly. West enlisted a
diverse group of models for the presentation, which included Georgia Fowler, Anima Blue and Luka Sabbat and Halima Aden—who made her runway debut as the first hijab-wearing model signed to a major agency.
The
entire show lasted for approximately 15 minutes, and Kanye did not walk
the runway for the show's finale as is typically customary.
