Slide #4

If you really need proof of Kanye's power as a universal star and cultural creator, just take a gander at that leather skirt he's wearing onstage (and has reportedly been wearing for the great majority of the tour). You can call it a kilt if it makes you feel better about his choices, but I've seen a skirt before, and that's a skirt. It's cool though, and that's the point. The only rapper that could possibly reference Martin Margiela is also probably the only one that could sell his gigantic crossover audience on his weird tales of vaguely effete gallivanting across Europe and playing with handbags. In other words, why worry about him wearing women's clothing when he wears it so well?
