Kanye West has been somewhat low key (for Kanye) as of late, but it looks like Yeezy season is approaching. The hip-hop icon made a surprise announcement email to several industry insiders inviting them to Yeezy Season 8 in Paris for Fashion Week. As reported by Women’s Wear Daily, West sent out invites to a  Sunday Service which will take place in Paris, and a few moments later he sent out another invite for Yeezy Season 8.

It is unclear if West will be unveiling an entire line, or if he will just be showing off limited works. West, who has long gone against the grain, is rushing into Paris while many others are heading out. Several designers have canceled their Paris Fashion Week plans due to the spread of Coronavirus. Masha Ma, Maison Mai, Uma Wang, Shiatzy Chen, Agnés B and more have abandoned Paris Fashion Week. Other designers and brands have found a way to mix medical face masks into their entire. 

The Yeezy Season 8 show will take place on March 2, and Sunday Service will take place the day before. The gospel presentation is set to start at 9 AM, and will presumably feature guests. West’s switch to gospel music has been working well for his career, which suffered a public bludgeoning after supporting Trump.

Offset is diversifying his creative outlets this time in the form of a clothing collection in collaboration with LAUNDERED WORKS CORP. The “Ric Flair Drip” rapper teamed up with creative director Chaz A. Jordan and Omar Johnson of ØPUS Brand Studios for LAUNDERED WORKS CORP Fall/Winter 2020 menswear capsule collection utilizing ‘New Luxury’ as their inspiration for the project. 

The collection features a wide array of streetwear-inspired pieces ranging from graphic tees, hoodies, sweatshirts, flannels, bomber jackets, two-piece suits, and more all the while employing premium materials such as denim, leather, and fur for various garbs. The attire also took inspiration from Offset’s signature style and Chaz A. Jordan’s travels from Italy to Paris. 

The three creatives also teamed up to design a line of accessories to compliment the collection including hats, handbags, and footwear.

The debut which took place at Paris Fashion Week was exclusively styled by revered stylist, Law Roach, and featured a star-studded crowd in attendance. Attendees included the likes of DJ Mustard, Fear of God creator Jerry Lorenzo, soccer megastar Neymar Jr., football players Saquan Barkley and Tyrod Taylor, his wife Cardi B, Migos bandmates Takeoff and Quavo, and more.  

During a brief conversation with Haute Living, Offset had this to say about his first-ever clothing collaborative venture,

“Designing my own clothes has been a fulfilling experience to express my love for fashion. My collection represents success from scratch, meaning starting from poverty was part of my path to luxury. Never forget where you came from.”

While in the past, the Migos have had their struggles in the apparel industry, it looks like they’ll be able to capitalize on their signature style for years to come. The Offset x  LAUNDERED WORKS CORP Fall/Winter 2020 menswear capsule collection is currently available for pre-order, here, and will officially be available for purchase on Jan. 25.
