Runway Model Reveals What it Was Like to Walk in Kanye West’s Crazy New York Fashion Show
Kanye West’s most recent collaboration with Adidas has been the topic of conversation ever since the rapper turned fashion designer unveiled his design during New York Fashion Week.
But, little is known about what happened backstage during the fashion show. Business Insider recently interviewed a model, Devan Mayfield at the fashion show to discuss her experience with the show and it’s pretty amazing.
Mayfield said she found out about the casting call last minute. When she showed up, casting directors immediately pulled her to the front. She went inside and immediately started photographing the show’s looks.
“It felt like a dream to be working with fellow artists, creators, and revolutionaries. I was very inspired and carry the energy from those moments with me today,” she said “I was a part of Kanye’s army.”
West was already there when Mayfield arrived. In fact, he was at all the castings, fittings, and rehearsals.
“When I arrived for hair and makeup on the day of the show, he was already there,” she said. “Kanye was very involved.”
Mayfield said she loved wearing the clothing in the show, which made her feel both “sexy and comfortable.”
“The nude body suit felt like another layer of skin the way it was hugging my body,” she said “I felt empowered.”
