Kanye West Reportedly Enlists Former Balmain Designer For His Fashion Comeback: The legendary performer has reportedly hired former Balmain designer Christophe Decarnin to head the revival of his namesake fashion line. Kanye showed his eponymous collection in Paris during the Spring/Summer 2012 and Autumn/Winter 2012 seasons, only to receive mixed feedback from critics. When he cancelled his show a year ago, the fashion world has eagerly waited to see if the line would pick up again. Looks like we might get more from Yeezus after all. [Vogue UK]
