These are pic's of dudes on the runway with KW/LV shoes - they start at 1100.00. To most people this would look like a no brainier for LV, however Very High-end fashion houses don't reach out to rappers - they don't need to.. In-fact it could hurt the brand if not done right. this co-lab was because he is a true tastemaker. But more Importantly KW forged a real friendship with Mark Jacobs - Creative Director of the prestigious French design house Louis Vuitton. Much like his relationship with "Hip Hop Since 1978" (HHS78) is a management/production company.
And through that real relationship, he was signed to Rocafella records.. I guess my point is god sometimes puts you in the right place at the right time, but you have to meet that fate with as much drive and planning and determination as you can.
