Rapper Kanye West turned fashion designer on Saturday (October 1) for his first womenswear collection "KW" at Paris Fashion Week.
The "Gold Digger" and "Stronger" hip-hop musician brought models out in an array of sportswear which seemed to be modelled after himself.
Some of the looks featured heavy materials including suede, leather, and high-perforance wear.
Details included beading, crystals and applique weighing down the wearer when temperatures are on the rise.
West played on shapes included loose fitting jackets, tops and trousers, to tight fitting such as floor-length skirts and body con (body conscious) dresses.
West has been a regular fixture in the front rows of fashion weeks over the past six years but reaction to the collection has been mixed.
The reveiws for Kanye's line were mixed.
Paris Fashion Week ends on Wednesday (October 5).
