One of the first style-forward activations, which is realized through Kanye West's fashion incubator program, is a contemporary womenswear collection by Maisie Schloss — the "first protégé."
The capsule launched at an exclusive event in Los Angeles under a newly founded label which goes by the name Maisie Wilen. The range embraces colors, prints and experimental silhouettes in a very elegant manner. Individuals can get a closer look at the contemporary womenswear collection by referencing a neon, blurry lookbooks which was shot by Sam Massey.
Kanye West identifies Chicago-born Schloss to have "a strong perspective." The first launch is tied to the Pre-Spring 2020 season. There are 27 distinct styles that are very versatile in their expression, allowing for individuals to flexibility in design and outfit arrangement.
