EZ Yeezy...

Kanye West a.k.a The Louis Vuitton Don a.k.a. Ye a.k.a. Yeezy has a ready-to-wear line that is set to debut today for the second time. The first presentation of the line, which was about six months ago, did not sit too well with the fashion critics. The line was laden with lots of fur and feathers, all things that resemble West's own personal style.

While the jury is still out on the line, the models scheduled to walk in his show aren't really helping the cause too much either. Model, Jourdon Dunn, hit the social media pavement via Twitter and vented her disapproval of the line's $5,800.00 heels she will wear in the show. She tweeted:

'Don't get me wrong the shoes are s*xy as FAWK but you can't walk in them!'

I've been known to wear an uncomfortable shoe for fashion's sake, but I'm guessing if someone who is PAID to walk in uncomfortable shoes and clothes says that something is uncomfortable it really must be! 

The shoes Dunn is set to stomp the runway in are very pleasing to the eye and feature detailed embroidery and beading, but are unfortunately painful. Good news is Dunn is not alone in her complaint. Fellow model, Leomie Anderson backed up Dunn's claims by tweeting:

'omg the model who fit for his clothes said the shoes were so bad and he was cussin her *cries*'

So as of right now, the biggest complaint regarding Ye's fashion line is the discomfort of the shoes, but that's not something for him to get down about. In the world of beauty and fashion having shoes that look good, but feel terrible is often the sign of a good product (if that's the case all of my shoes are B-A-D as in BAD meaning GOOD). Famed shoe designer, Christian Louboutin is known for making painful shoes and matter-of-factly states, 'an act of discomfort pays off in a lot of ways.'

Welp, there you have it folks, beauty is pain and these models need to suck it up and walk it on out for Yeezy!

Good Luck at the show tonight, Ye!

Ciao and see you at the TOP, lovies!
