Only one day after his ex-wife Kim Kardashian was designated the controversial fashion house's brand ambassador, Kanye West went and tried to mock her?
The 46-year-old rapper wore a taupe rain jacket by Balenciaga and accessorized his new titanium teeth while going to the Century City Mall and Sunset Towers for lunch on Monday with his spouse, Bianca Censori.
The couple entered a parking lot, where they were seen walking over the pavement while holding hands, enjoying a momentary break from the inclement weather.
The 29-year-old Bianca managed to draw attention even though she was completely covered in quite ugly rain gear.
Under her translucent poncho, the celebrity looked to be topless and wearing very little. She had on her skimpy leather boots and seemed to be wearing only her underwear. When combined with a stylish, pulled-back haircut and a hint of eye makeup, her complexion looked stunning. Conversely, Kanye wore big, bulky black boots with his jacket.
The was grinning at his wife, showing off his newly crowned titanium teeth. The photo op was taken just one day after Kim, Kanye's ex-wife, was named the new Balenciaga brand ambassador.
Kanye had previously worked with the company, but after his anti-Semitic outbursts and other questionable remarks, they fired him in 2022. Kanye is credited with introducing Kim to Demna Gvasalia, the creative director of Balenciaga.
The couple's girls have also been sighted wearing the brand, as evidenced by their sightings of the four-figure bags.
In December 2021, when accepting a fashion award at the People's Choice Awards, she acknowledged the part her ex-husband had played in the relationship.
She remarked, "To Kanye, for really introducing me to the fashion world,' she said. 'I fell in love with fashion and I'm so inspired by so many people. But again, this is like a dream that I get to wake up and wear these amazing clothes and try new things and take a risk. I'm so humbled."
It was dubbed "the peak of Kardashian's Balenciaga moment" by Vogue at the time. Balenciaga caused controversy last year when it released an advertisement featuring children posing with various BDSM-themed things.
Kim, who had earlier claimed she was "shaken and disgusted" by the advertisement but had previously refused to sever her relationship with the company, announced her association with Demna Gvasalia's label in a statement on Monday. The statement said, "Balenciaga's designs have been a part of my many looks - and some of my most iconic fashion moments - for several years now."
