Kanye Westis one step ahead of the fashion game.
While attending the Burberry spring 2023 show duringLondon Fashion Week, the 24-time Grammy winner donned a pair of flip-flops with blinged-out straps and black socks.
West, 45, teamed the look with matching leather trousers and a belted jacket, which he layered over a black hooded sweatshirt.
Ye wasn’t alone in his flip-flop fashion, however — Burberry’s ready-to-wear collection was filled with the summer shoe designed in various hues and silhouettes.
The “Bound 2” rapper also sat front row and mingled backstage with the British label’s chief creative officer, Riccardo Tisci, and supermodelsNaomi CampbellandBella Hadid, who both walked the show on Monday.

TheDondaartist has alsoclapped back against Adidas, calling out the sportswear brand on multiple occasions on social media.
The dispute began in May following the release of the Adilette 22 sandals, which bear resemblance to West’s Yeezy slides — both are available in neutral tones, have a chunky slide sandal design and are sold at similar price range.
On Monday, Sept. 26, he took to his Instagram Story to address the brand once more. “Adidas. You talk to me first about any decisions about Yeezy. I been nice ‘till now. This is for my kids now and this is for every creative kid that ever was bullied,” he wrote.
Adidas has yet to respond to West’s claims.
