Kanye West, stretch fabrics and fainting. No, Yeezus did not don a new pair of leggings and pass out from the lack of blood flow\u2014at least not publicly. A different story, however, are his models during his New York Fashion Week event.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think the only thing dumber than these clothes would be the people who would buy these clothes,\u201d professional \u201cmake it work\u201d sloganeer and Project Runway host Tim Gunn said on Access Hollywood. Gunn also referred to West as a \u201csphinx without a riddle.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gunn continued to fire at West over his Fashion Week line that he said is just \u201cstretchy undergarments.\u201d Video online shows that West\u2019s mass of models were profusely sweating, uncomfortable and some reached the point of pure exhaustion\u2014resulting in mild fainting bouts.<\/p>\n

Upwards of an hour and fifty minutes into the show, West, himself showed up in an outfit of all black, the colors vastly contrasting from his collection that Anna Wintour remarked to be \u201cmigrant chic\u201d consisting of mostly nude colors.<\/p>\n

Wintour later apologized for potentially \u201ctrivializing\u201d the migrant crisis with her phrasing.<\/p>\n

Gunn calls West\u2019s collection both \u201cdumb\u201d and \u201cbasic.\u201d Gunn\u2019s criticism and personality have landed him in hot water before, especially with Anna Wintour who banned Gunn from the prestigious Met Gala for not retracting a statement in his 2010 book \u201cGunn\u2019s Golden Rules.\u201d<\/p>\n

In his book, Gunn wrote that the most \u201cunforgettable\u201d moment in the fashion world he lived was an episode where Anna Wintour refused to ride an elevator five stories to the ground. Instead, Gunn said, Wintour was carried the entirety of the flights\u2014and even further to her transportation\u2014by her security.<\/p>\n

Wintour demanded the retraction, Gunn refused stating that the story is the entire truth.<\/p>\n

Was this a hit or a miss for Yeesus? You tell us.<\/p>\n
