the thing is that his fashion line is groundbreaking, and even the runway show is great and unique and far more creative than anything that the major houses are doing except maybe balenciaga edit: or rick owens?

calling fashion "derivative" is silly because of course it all comes from somewhere, but the fact is that even if you dont like yeezy, the clothing itself is distinctive and breaks the mold in a lot of ways. the shoes, especially the molded sneakers are very distinctive and original. and so is the runway show itself

also saying that a creative work would have come into existence even if the artist who made it didn't make it isn't really verifiable in any way and kind of silly if you think about it for more than two seconds

anyway those are matters of taste and of course subjective so i dont really feel the need to go deeper into it, and definitely not a great time to defend his work given the recent uh things
