Kanye West Covers August 2015 'Vogue Japan' Issue with Riccardo Tisci, Kendall Jenner and Others
Is this the launch of a new “Fashion Gang” in the industry?
An already big day of accolades for Kanye West gets bigger with the launch of Vogue Japan‘s August 2015 cover. West appears alongside Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci, Kendall Jenner, Jessica Chastain, with supermodels Joan Smalls, Jamie Bochert and Mica Arganaraz rounding out the assembly. The cover recently appeared on Tisci’s Instagram with the caption: “Proud to present to you my family: my fashion gang…” and features the lot garbed in Givenchy’s latest. While the story has yet to be translated for non-native readers, the cover title certainly points to a specific – though unprecedented – alliance across music, fashion and entertainment that could signal a new era for West, especially given the success of his own fashion imprint with adidas.
