Kanye West's Runaway

If you haven't already check out Kanye West's short film “Runaway” I think you should do so soon. The style of this film is presented in a clean cut way with a very simple color palate. Kanye hired Philip Lim to design all three of his looks. For the banquet scene Kanye wears a cream colored tuxedo with a chunky black bow tie. This is my favorite look because it presents him opposite of his female costar. Victoria Secret model Selita Ebanks wore a costume that helped depict a pheonix which was made out of hand dyed feathers, covering her private areas to expose the body in a natural, sexy way. Beautiful layered wings covered most of her back. No straps were used to hold her wings down, only molds, so it created such a natural flow of human to bird. Martin Izquierdo created this piece from Kanye's vision.
