YES, the rumors are apparently true! According to The Cut, Kanye West is working on a women’s clothing line slated to debut during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week this September! Louise Wilson, a professor at British fashion school Central St. Martins, has confirmed reports that Kanye is working on a label with British designer Louise Goldin.

Goldin is a former student of Wilson’s, and this is what she told Guardian:

“I think we can expect a well-considered collection, you wouldn’t expect less from a pair of professionals and I warn against dismissing it in haste. There are those who might assume Louise will be doing all the work and Kanye is just the face, I don’t believe this will be the case – he researches thoroughly and is hands on and committed to his work.”

Do you guys think Yeezy can pull it off? One thing for sure – this will be the most anticipated show of New York Fashion Week! Kanye, we want our invite!
