With the voices of critics as a distant memory in his mind, Kanye West revealed his fall/winter 2012 collection Tuesday at Paris Fashion Week.
DW, named after his mother Donda West, is the rapper’s second womenswear line that features structured biker jackets, furs and enough leather, velvet and crocodile skin to hold us over until his third showing.
In general, West has received more positive reviews on his second run. Christina Binkley,The Wall Street Journal‘s style columnist, called it “way better than before.” She also caught up with the rapper-turned-designer to hear his take on things.
“I learned a lot from the last [show],” he said. “I’m learning every day. I’m a new designer. I’m taking baby steps.”
West had plenty of support with famous friends like Alicia Keys, Swizz Beatz, Sean “Diddy” Combs, Kim Kardashian, Anna Wintour and others sitting in the audience.
