Paris Fashion week is supposed to be about high fashion, but while it was obvious he had made an effort, Kanye West missed the mark.
The attention seeking superstar attended several runway shows today, including the Balmain ready-to-wear event, looking anything but fashion forward.
He was dressed in black harem pants, more usually favoured by women, black trainers, a red leather motorcycle jacket and a baggy grey T-shirt underneath.

The rapper seemed pleased with his outfit, although it drew stares from more fashionable attendees.
While the Love Lockdown singer looked a bit out of place in his mismatched look, some would say it’s an improvement over what he wore to Paris Fashion Week last year.
In January 2010, Kanye and his then girlfriend Amber Rose caused a stir when they stepped out wearing flamboyant, floor length fur coats.

The ostentatious outfits caused a backlash by Peta vice president Dan Mathews.
‘Kanye can’t help making himself look like an idiot, whether at an awards show or a fashion show,’ he said.
‘He and his girlfriend look like pathetic creatures from a shabby roadside zoo.
Perhaps the outfit Kanye wore today, puffy pants and and a baggy jacket , were meant to disguise his more portly figure after he apparently gained weight over the holidays.
