Kanye West, often hailed as a visionary in music and fashion, has consistently shared his distinctive style sense with the women he has been involved with.
Recently, this trend has been evident with Bianca Censori, a former Yeezy Head of Architecture. Since their non-legal union in January, 28-year-old Censori has seen a significant shift in her style. Once known for her long, brunette locks, she now sports a chic pixie cut and minimalist fitness outfits that seamlessly align with Kanye’s present-day fashion sensibilities.
Kim Kardashian, West’s ex-wife and global style icon, often relied on Kanye’s fashion council. At 42, Kardashian confessed feeling uneasy without West’s guidance in her sartorial choices during their separation. It’s worth recalling that Kanye once advised Kim against wearing a ” too provocative outfit.”
Throughout the years, West’s fashion influence extended to former partners such as Selita Ebanks, Irina Shayk, Vinetria, Julia Fox, and Chaney Jones.
Amber Rose Resists the West Style Guide
However, not every partner was eager to adopt West’s style recommendations. Notably, Amber Rose, romantically linked to Kanye in 2008, didn’t always appreciate his fashion suggestions. During their relationship, Rose often was at odds with Kanye’s muted colour palette, favouring her vibrant hues like electric pink and bright yellow over his preferred tones like “bone.”
Speaking with Elle magazine, Rose candidly shared her fashion disagreements with West. While she often resisted his style choices, she humorously recalled a Met Gala incident where she regretted not heeding his advice. Opting for a cocktail dress over the traditional gown, she was out of place among a sea of flowing dresses. Regardless of these style clashes, their dynamic relationship added another layer to West’s intriguing relationship with fashion and his partners.
