A day prior, Kanye and his wife Kim Kardashian pulled through for the Paris Fashion Week showcase.
BTW … it’s a huge moment for Kanye too, who broke down in tears meeting up with a longtime friend, Virgil Abloh — Louis Vuitton’s new artistic director of menswear. They go way back, and Virgil even worked with Kanye before taking on his most prominent role yet … becoming the first black artistic director in the company’s 164-year history. (TMZ)
