There is no doubt Kanye loves fashion but he is no fashion icon, its like Jay-Z being a fashion icon by mentioning 'button ups' or 'tom ford' ... there is more to being a fashion icon than saying names.

How isn't Kanye a fashion icon?

Thats what I'm asking you.

Cause he's not on catwalks/runways?

That makes no sense. The guy fukking LIVES this shyt. This is beyond making cute rap references. The guy rocks all this shyt to go grocery shipping.

The mane is LITERALLY fashion 24/7.

Its like you are still conditioned to accept what white america tells you is a fashion icon without even admitting the only reason you're keeping Ye out is because they told you not to accept hiim.

You can't name a single person who has done MORE documented work in fashion from designing to having an influence on how people wear certain items than Kanye West since she came out.

The only other black person i'd name is MAYBE Pharrell.

Are some of yall really trying to deny Kanye's impact on fashion?! :usure:

Dude pretty much birthed this whole generation.
Hate it or love it, he's one of the biggest influences of the past 10yrs.

Precisely.

Sure, he rants and acts like a diva sometimes, but to deny his influence on all things black AND fashion forward, NO ONE has done it like Kanye West.

PERIOD

Time out.

Go look at any high fashion runway lay out right now.

When they're on the runway they rock several pieces at a time. Its less about completing a look than it is showcasing whats the newest thing out.

When you see Ye in the streets he doesn't look like he's 'just wearing everything at once. Its simpler and more functional than that, but again, when it comes to displaying high fashion you wear several things at time to achieve a certain style.

fair enough, i dont think his a fashion icon and there is no proof that he is. what he has got is a crazy media game enough respect on the GQ cover though.
