'Kanye West sure knows how to make an entrance. The 38-year-old rapper-turned-designer hosted a last-minute NYFW show for his new Kanye West X Adidas Originals Collection (Yeezy Season 2) on Wednesday, Sept. 16, and the bold-faced names who turned up for the star-studded event were aplenty. Among the famous faces in the crowd were Jaden Smith, Drake, Lorde, Seth Meyers, Andre Leon Talley, and Blondie lead singer Debbie Harry.

Anna Wintour, Riccardo Tisci, Common, and Michael Strahan also enjoyed VIP status at the event.

His models wore a variety of hoodies, bodysuits, and loose-fitting pants for the military-inspired presentation, and they stomped through the warehouse-like space in heels and high tops.

The 18-year-old reality star — who walked in West’s first show in February — strutted across the floor like a professional.

The “FourFiveSeconds” rapper also debuted a new track, allegedly titled “I Feel It”; last season, West released “Wolves” featuring Sia and Vic Mensa.

Designer Anne Bowen told Women’s Wear Daily that she and her team had to rearrange the date of the show for her streetwear collection, Nomad VII by Anne Bowen, because of West’s last-minute addition.

We have put our heart and soul into our show, and should not be stepped on like this.” Jaden Smith and Kendall Jenner Jaden Smith and Kendall Jenner Credit: Kevin Mazur/Getty Images Naeem Khan’s show was also scheduled at the same time as West’s on Wednesday, but the designer told WWD that he was “confident” that fans of his brand would still turn out to support him, despite scheduling conflicts.

Lorde and Drake Lorde and Drake Credit: Kevin Mazur/Getty Images “The first I heard about the Kanye show was what I read in the Post,” he said. “There was no listing on the Fashion Calendar, and we didn’t know about it. We can’t avoid conflicts unless we know someone’s doing it.” Michael Stipe, Helena Christensen and Debbie Harry Michael Stipe, Helena Christensen and Debbie Harry Credit: Kevin Mazur/Getty Images Sign up now for the Us Weekly newsletter to get breaking celebrity news, hot pics, and more delivered straight to your inbox!
