Balenciaga Parts Ways With Kanye West!

perezhilton.com:

Balenciaga is going in another direction… far far away from controversy. The major fashion house has officially parted ways with Kanye West.

That rumor has been floating around for the last day or so, with fans wondering whether Ye’s recent string of disturbing anti-Semitic comments would have consequences.

And on Friday morning, the brand’s parent company Kering officially confirmed they are no longer working with the rapper-designer in any capacity.

They released a very brief statement on the matter, telling WWD (below): As the outlet noted, the parent company “did not elaborate further” on the brand’s decision to back away from the Chicago-born star.

Of course, Balenciaga has had a tight relationship with Ye, even collabing with him on a Gap collection, but also with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian.
