Yeezy Season 2 has officially been revealed. Opening to a packed fashion show of industry leaders, A-list celebs and some of the world’s most revered publications, Kanye West’s highly anticipated collection debuted at the Skylight Modern in midtown Manhattan, New York.

Similar to Yeezy Season 1, the show consisted of numerous models, both male and female, in formation similar to that of military soldiers. The collection featured garments in hues of sand, olive and light beige, with a slew of pieces including long-sleeves, hoodies, jackets, shorts, tanks and more. Footwear-wise, we’re given an up-close look at the new Boost 750 colorway, which incorporates a hint of brown along with a semi-transparent sole; this subtle change in rubber is also found on a darker black version which was also revealed as well.

Kanye made a quick entrance and exit at the peak of the performance, all while debuting a new track tentatively known as “Fade (I Feel Enslaved)” off his upcoming album Swish, while Kim and North cheered along the sidelines. Also among the West family were A-list celebrities Courtney Love, Seth Meyers, Anna Wintour, Riccardo Tisci, Lorde, Post Malone, Drake, Pusha T, Fabolous, Jaden Smith, Chromeo, A-Trak, Miguel, Tyga, Kendall Jenner, Kacy Hill, Vic Mensa and Steve Stoute.

Stay tuned for more in-depth photography and details as Yeezy Season 2 approaches.
