Forget what you heard— real men wear kilts! Or at least that’s what Kanye West likes to think. His custom Givenchy kilt stole the show and Twitter feeds when he performed at the 12-12-12 Sandy Relief Concert last week. In a behind the scenes video, Kanye works with his stylists to perfect his leather on leather ensemble, and his custom Riccardo Tisci shirt that was designed for the Watch The Throne tour with Jay-Z. A true fan of fashion, Yeezy was involved in every intricate detail, and even snipped the kilt himself:
“I just love this. I mean, I like it if I wear a kilt or I’m not wearing a kilt. I just like the silhouette—it’s really modern.”
Watch Kanye’s fitting below.
