He is working with streetwear brand Skid Row Fashion Week, on an upcoming fashion show. It’s there that the homeless would appear in this collaboration apparel.
David Sabastian, the founder of Skid Row Fashion Week, told TMZ that he met with Kanye in LA, earlier this month. At the time, Ye was recording “Donda 2,” and the two decided on a Yeezy x Skid Row Fashion Week clothing collab.
The Yeezy collaboration will end up donating 100% of proceeds, to the homeless living on the Skid Row area, of LA. Sabastian’s clothing line in general, donates a portion to those living on Skid Row, and he even employs the homeless, at the factory that creates his clothing line.
These clothes will officially be available on February 22, the same day that Kanye’s Donda 2 album is released. The proceeds will also help hire more homeless people to the factor that supplies these items. As for the fashion show, it is still in the early stages of being set up, as people from the SRFW factory would appear in the clothes.
