“I knew there would be a lot of interest around the collection, but I wouldn’t have necessarily predicted that it would beat out Chanel. We’ve covered celebrity lines before, and we covered Kanye’s first two collections he did in Paris a couple of years ago, but they didn’t have that kind of impact … obviously he’s at a whole new level of fame now, but part of it is, I think, there’s a purpose behind his collection that people can’t ignore.” said Dirk Standen, Style.com’s Editor-in-Chief.
