How is oversized clothing pioneering? Ppl have been wearing this way since the 80's, as a uniform on the daily. Just bc it's a trend now doesn't make it visionary. His pieces are not prototypes of what we see in today's oversized.

@understitchYT

Жыл бұрын

The silhouettes from the 80s are different and largely based on or inspired by 40s style clothing or zoot suiter culture. Each of these were pioneering in changing the fashion of their day. They helped change the way fashion was interpreted for their generations. The trend of oversized streetwear had been coming out of london for a while too, based off of the chav culture, there were brands that heightened it, like Nasir Mazhar and Christopher Shannon, although there were international brands championing oversized clothes too, like Juun.J with their neoprene sweatshirts in 2013. What Yeezy did was to take that idea and bring it to a way that was accessible to all people, both into and not into fashion. This is pioneering for the industry and hasn't been done on such a wise scale for men since Hedi Slimane popularised skinny jeans again (after they were popular in the 80s known as drainpipes)

I absolutely love Kane, Ive followed his brand right from the early days, I honestly expected his comeback last season to be much bigger than it was, there are so few searches for him, such a shame

I’m impressed that he can handle so much turmoil for so long, makes me wonder how you can be an outcast as a designer within the industry and still be relevant to his consumers. Just like how Steve Jobs was treated in his tech community before his rise. The end consumers finally dictated his success. In conclusion, the purists in the industry will always be judgmental. Virgil tried to cater his brand to both of what he terms as “purists” and “tourists”, and I believe we should look at Kanye simply as tourists. Looking at the bigger picture as a “tourist” makes Kanye look like a genius critic of the modern fashion era. One of the few non conforming artists and designers out there, the true meaning of being a avant-garde in a well established industry is to go against it. Showing us how style isn’t individualistic but entirely compliant to herd mentality and how celebrities perceive and advertise them. The colors in many seasons are muted and dystopian, they are a representation of an unwanted future and not meant to be worn popularly. A slavery themed, monochromatic collection represents Kanye’s mind, his ultimate fear of obedience, compliance, homogeneity and control yet a collection that resonates entirely that. Kanye isn’t going to fall for too long. He did several times and got back up again. This whole BLM and MAGA controversy is just a matter of perspective, it’s a divisive topic but not unanimously controversial. Many people applaud his stance as much as hate him for it. I mean, WTAPS have literal communist symbols on their clothing but no one bats an eye. I think we should look at him philosophically instead of looking at how his clothing matches with our closet.

This is so incredibly smart, you explain his contribution to fashion really well, and I really really agree that he concep tually was so important to fashion evolution. But the one thing that I think is important to note, is that this was the first big outcry for the Yeezy brand for having such negative racist messages. The vast majority of the scandals before were only based on Kanye the person, not Yeezy the brand, or were largely limited to the clothes. The reason it was so bad this time was because he took his own agenda to the clothes, and it overpowered the message and people didn’t want to support that.

@@understitchYT There’s certainly a difference between joining people to a common interest and acting entitled as a moral judge. I think that’s how Yeezy stepped in unwisely. No matter how well intentioned it may be, an electric car company shouldn’t make other car owners feel bad or guilty, instead share their passion with like minded people. As a person Kanye is completely entitled to his opinion but business wise I agree with you. I think you shouldn’t mix in personal opinions of polemic issues with your business. Our world is so complex that there are always things we can disagree with one another. If Kanye wants Yeezy to attract customers, shareholders and investors, he should do so bringing people together and finding some sort of common ground.

YZY does lol. This isn't $53 million in debt, this is a text book case in a sharp and painful correction that's all self inflicted.

As much as I dislike the man, Steve Jobs actually had Wozniak to build the machines for him and their products were actually useful while also being "trendy" and overpriced. That is how they remained in business..ie by adapting to the market and producing useful products. Kanye does not produce anything useful anymore, its all garbage... its just that Kanye and his fans do not yet realize that fact.

I don't understand why my brothers and sisters African American still can't Unite and pull our resources to work together instead of sharecropping with your Enemies

I love that you follow the numbers and documentation instead of falling for the “it’s beyonce so she will sell out of everything” fallacy. The commercials, the ads, even the products were made for her! So why would someone like me buy it? I’m not surprised it did not sell as well as they thought. A 93 million dollar profit looks good but I’m pretty sure they cost an arm and leg to make so, they really didn’t make a profit. Probably barely broke ramen status with beyonces expensive taste 😅

Well don’t know if karma is the word I would use because Yeezy season 10 ( titled Yeezy season x) is set for September and is going to be crazy with a lot of surprises and controversy per usually. There is going to be news of 4 major designer joining Yeezy with one of them leaving the brand they are currently working for. The first Yeezy store will beginning building late this year and is being designed by Kanye wife. Adidas and Yeezy will be back in full swig and the contract might be extend for another 5 years . Kanye will be chief architectural designer for Elon mask town/city he wants to build. He has an album coming soon And he is now married The guys life is going better than it was before not gonna lie🫣

It was always about the idea of the clothes that moved the needle on modern fashion

the kids see ghosts camp flog gnaw merch and other merch should have been included. those might not be as much of Yeezy fashion per-se but extremely important to the growth and mass-market acceptance of the brand.

Well what you need to do is someone needs to tell Kanye West that he's an idiot, pause, give him time to think, notice that he does not realize it, repeat it, and then watch him flip out. Then remind him that he lost $6 billion dollars in one day, and no one in the history of commerce has ever done that, he is the first. Then realize he'll still blame somebody else instead of taking responsibility.
