After look book images leaked online yesterday, his people have confirmed that the much talked about–and nearly forgotten, fashion line called “Pastelle” by Kanye West is not happening, and would never be released… ever. Eh?
It’s very strange seeing Kanye seemingly put everything aside to devote himself to fashion design–cleared his schedule for an entire five months earlier this year to work on Pastelle and his Louis Vuitton sneaker collaboration, and delayed his tour… which isn’t happening either now.

After working on Pastelle for over a year, Kanye only produced four pieces, including three articles of clothing and a belt. So what were the look book images all about?
What do you think, is he a tormented artist that is never able to reconcile his vision, or is this an elaborate hype to drum up more media attention for the line Kanye’s tipped to eventually release in the near future.
