On today's episode of "Kanye," Mr. West attends a fabric industry trade show. 'Ye tweeted a picture showing off his Première Vision badge, with a caption that he's already at work on Yeezy Season 4 (just a week after showing Season 3). Première Vision, for those not privy to the ins and outs of product development, is a "Global Event for Fashion Professionals," i.e. Kanye West.
Presumably, Kanye is doing the very meticulous research of checking out fabrics. And according to Première Vision's website, today is dedicated to "Fabrics Trend Tasting." We'll let the tradeshow explain just exactly what that is: "An indispensable seminar to improve the efficiency of your visit," the website reads. "An essential tool for spotting the season's indispensable fabrics. The fashion season broken down in key fabrics and silhouettes."
The only question we're left with really is did 'Ye make it the very-essential-sounding "Leather Fashion Breakfast?"
We have reached out to Première Vision to hopefully answer these very burning questions.
