Kanye West is no stranger to pushing the envelope when it comes to fashion, but a new design from his Yeezy brand is sure to turn heads.
In an Instagram post shared by designer Mowalola Ogunlesi this week, Ye’s wife, Bianca Censori, can be see modeling the minimalistic outfit which brings a new meaning to the term “scantily-clad.”

The ensemble includes little more than a black square of material covering Bianca’s breasts, a black cross on her butt and a black landing strip covering her vagina. It’s finished off with a pair of black boots or leggings that reach all the way to her upper thighs.
The cross is notable considering Kanye is currently sporting a crucifix shaved into the back of his head, which he unveiled while out and about in Los Angeles earlier this week.

The Chicago rap mogul has made no secret of his religious beliefs having peppered his music with Biblical references and even briefly reinvented himself as a gospel artist with his 2019 album Jesus Is King.
However, it doesn’t appear as though many of his fellow Christians are enthused by the sacred crucifix being used to cover up his wife’s private parts, with some branding the outfit “blasphemous.”
“This ain’t Christ like,” one disgruntled person commented on the Instagram post, while another wrote: “Ye going to hell.”
Kanye West has been kicking his fashion career back into gear in recent weeks following the widespread backlash to his Yeezy Season 9 fashion show in Paris last October, where he wore a controversial “White Lives Matter” shirt.
His embrace of white supremacism soon descended into a steady stream of antisemitism rhetoric, which cost him a number of lucrative business partnerships and long-standing creative partnerships — including with adidas, Gap, Balenciaga, Def Jam and even Pusha T.
Earlier this month, Ye quietly made his comeback by holding a secret Yeezy Season 10 fashion show in an empty warehouse in Los Angeles, which was soundtracked by Frank Ocean’s “Self Control.”
The part of the show that caught the most attention, however, was the alleged hidden Nazi symbolism — including its use of skinhead models and apparent nod to the tiki torches that lit up the “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017.

Kanye also recently applied to trademark “YZY SOCK SHOES” through his holding company, Mascotte Holdings Inc. The product is described simply as “socks with leather soles,” and appears to be Yeezy’s take on the trendy sock boot.
