It Ain’T Yeezy. Rapper Turned Fashion Designer Kanye West’S

Kanye West and his brand “Yeezy” are one of the biggest names in the sneaker industry. In fact, Kanye West has a song referring to how he has “Jumped over the Jumpman”, Jumpman of course referring to the brand Air Jordan, but is it true? Is Kanye West and Adidas brand Yeezy more popular today than Michael Jordan’s signature shoe line? The Jumpman is one of the most iconic brand logos on the market, but in the past few years Yeezy has become a major competitor; as well as Adidas in general. When you hear Nike is grossing approximately 86.2 billion in 2015 compared to Adidas 17.1 billion, you may think that there is no way Adidas could stand up to the all-mighty Nike, but what if it is just the beginning? Complex Magazine asks this question in

Over the course of the history of clothing styles and production, one thing has never changed: a person’s wealth directly influences

By using the bear alone Mr. West turned Ralph Lauren onto the masses of rappers and fans (Kanye West: The Evolution of an Icon’s Clothes). As stated by West, he is “the most influential person in fashion in the last ten years”. That statement very well may be true. West is always in the public eye showing off his new outfits. These outfits are then turned over to the masses where people take inspiration from them. Many people like to mimic and dress after their favorite celebrity but it seems West has started an empire of clothing, striking deals with A.P.C., Nike, and Adidas seemingly creating some type of “sub-genre” to clothing called “streetwear”. West has been inspiring and influencing the way rappers and the regular population dress since the days he wore a bear on his shirt. Newer staples of West’s fashion are tighter fitting clothes, leather, and suits. These types of materials and clothing are undoubtedly a new trend in the hip-hop community and industry all courtesy to Kanye Omari West (C.M., Emmanuel).

A lot of countries made their clothing for different reasons. For instance, Scotland made a fabric called tartans that showed what clan they are in, and Hawaiians production of clothing was part of religious significance. In the Middle Ages ties and belts were used more frequently because their clothes was oversized by modern standards. “With the Renaissance’s changes in art and society came more fitted clothes” (Source 2). They made their clothes more fitted by sewing multiple pieces of cloth instead of using just one big piece of cloth. Without closures like zippers it made it very difficult to get into their clothes. The wealthier people had their tailor customize their own patterns. “... height of 18th century, French fashion garments were truly works of art” (Source 2). The french started to ship in foreign pieces of clothes shipped from miles away and used silk-like materials. “... flashy fabrics fell out of use.. fit became increasingly more important in the 19th and 20th centuries” (Source 2). The flashy material went out of style and nobody really wanted to use it anymore. Instead of tunics and robes, men started to wear suits. Men and women were looking for a more fitted look

Kanye grew up in a relatively nice neighborhood where he never experienced the tales that gangster rappers told. Because of this Kanye could never relate to these lyrics, this drove him to change hip hop. “ Relatable to anyone with lofty goals… [The College Dropout] spoke to the concerns of everyday people.” (Fairfax). With this change in subject matter, a wider scope of people can listen to hip hop and relate to the problems that everyone experiences, even Kanye West. Many music critics and fans believed hip hop can only be based on the abrasive lyrics it previously was, and if a change were to happen it would only make hip hop worse. With Kanye’s debut album The College Dropout, Kanye “[Demonstrated] that being socially conscious didn’t have to equate with being boring” (“15 Ways Kanye”). With the majority of rap listeners listening to the likes of 2Pac, B. I. G, or Snoop Dogg, who expressed mostly gang related sentiments, most believed anything else would be lyrically boring, but Kanye West changed this social stigma. However, this was not the only change Kanye created with the release of his debut

After researching Kanye West as my pop culture topic, I came to the conclusion that I was interested in looking at him through the lens of Business. Business can also be known as an enterprise or as a company. Its main goal is to provide their costumers with goods and services in exchange of money. The people who provide this service become successful by offering people exactly what they want or simply by creating something that convinces people that they need it. Business is a wide topic that needs a lot of human behavior understanding and a person who is able to analyze how to be successful and manage money.

The fashion industry is rapidly growing and constantly generating new fashion trends almost weekly. Fashion for some may seem ridiculous and unnecessary; but fashion is not just a meaningless usage of article of clothing or farcical materials sew together for coverage. There is more to fashion than meets the eyes, fashion is precious and significant. It is a reflection of self-image, it speak the ream about who we are and how we review ourselves. Not only is fashion the reflection of self-image but also the reflection of our history as Coco Channel have said, “Fashion is not something that exist in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.” Fashion

Fashion has been around ever since ancient times, since the time of the Romans, it survived the world wars and is yet today a business with rapid changes. Fashion started off as an art form, a way for the riches to show their social status with unique and innovative designs that only they could afford. It was a way to separate the social classes of the society. In this paper I will include the creator of haute couture, and how the following designers developed couture, as well as having leading names in today’s ready-to-wear industry. The list is long, but I chose to focus on the three most important designers of the modern fashion industry.

Current learning of antiquated Middle east dress gets from the adequate proof to be found in the abundance of divider and artistic creations, in model, and in earthenware production. Couple of genuine pieces of clothing has survived. The main material to have been saved is cloth, which has been found in graves dating to Neolithic times. Flax society dates from early times, and, truth be told, the Middle East trusted that the divine beings were dressed in material before they came to earth. Fleece was all the more infrequently utilized, and sericulture had not yet stretched out as far west as Egypt. The coloring procedures were moderate to come to Egypt, so most pieces of clothing were white. Shading was given by gems in which semiprecious stones were broadly consolidated. Skins of different creatures were used. These were here and there just crude conceals, which have survived just seldom, yet the Egyptians got to be talented at curing the skins to end up cowhide by the tanning technique. Cowhide was broadly utilized as a part of dress for footwear, belts, and straps.

There have been and still are hundreds of fashion designers in the world. But only a few of them have had any major impact on fashion industry today. And even fewer have revolutionised the fashion industry completely. One of these revolutionaries is the renowned Christian Dior. He reestablished Paris as the centre of the fashion world, and created his name as a symbol of elegance, quality, and modernity. I will be looking into how Dior’s context informed his practice, by using three of his most iconic and popular designs; The Bar Suit, Venus Dress and the Cygne Noir dress. And how these were a direct representation of 1945-1950 France.

“Yeezy, yeezy, yeezy just jumped over jumpman, yeezy, yeezy, yeezy I feel so accomplished, I ain’t dropped a album but the shoes went platinum.” - K. West on the sales of his shoes. Kanye West’s Yeezy shoes are very popular and they come in different variations. I own a pair, they are comfortable.

Just from looking at a few pieces of the art of the ancient Egyptians, you begin to notice many defining characteristics about it that make it unique and different from other styles of art. There are an ample amount of recurring features in the art, so this must mean that these traits and aspects are noteworthy. This next section of the essay will go into detail about a few of the many types of art and the stylistic elements that define ancient Egyptian art and make it special and distinguishable from other types of art, and why some particular aspects of the art are important.

Galabyia is as modern conception one of these clothing which originated in Middle Kingdom as bag-tunic and then became favorable cloth for all categories of ancient Egyptian society during New Kingdom; it lasted in developing during Greek-Roman Period but in accordance with their Greek style. Nowadays Galabyia occupies first place in Upper Egypt between other clothing. There many examples for modern clothing in Upper Egypt had its ancient Egyptian root. This doesn’t imply that change in cloth in societies outside of these prerequisites doesn’t occur, ‘modifications to dress do occur, but not at the speed and with the regularity of fashion in modern societies’.

This work is an introduction to the fashion industry of Pakistan which has made quite a lot of progress in just a few years. Ten to fifteen years from now, this industry was still unknown to actually exist to the masses. Later with the formation of fashion councils and education centers under the enthusiastic few who wanted to make a difference and promulgate this very institution of fashion, did the very fashion industry took its concrete contour from the old tailor culture that formerly existed. Today it is one of the most progressing industries in the country.
