[QUOTE="HotNewHipHop, post: 55623, member: 83"] Kanye West has been taking a shot at reimagining the world of luxury fashion with his Yeezy Gap Engineered by Balenciaga project in recent months, though according to the Spanish company's head designer, Demna Gvasalia, the collaboration is now "over." A report from the [I]New York Times[/I] arrived earlier today (July 25), exploring the "chaotic" creation that came to be from the minds of Ye and Demna following this month's [URL='https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/kanye-wests-yeezy-gap-will-take-over-times-square-as-products-become-available-in-store-news.155295.html']highly anticipated in-store product rollout[/URL] across the country.
