Kanye West brought church to Paris Fashion Week when he held his Sunday Service in Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord at 8 AM.
Among the crowd were designers, stylists, writers, editors, West’s wife Kim and daughter North, as well as Kim’s sister Kourtney and her daughter Penelope. Unlike previous Sunday services, the venue held more than just West’s close family and friends and ticket buyers. The crowd surrounded the tight knit circle of West, his choir, and the pastor.
Although the obvious focus is religion, there was an emphasis on fashion as well. West dressed himself and his choir in matching beige outfits consisting of, according to Vogue, a “V-neck top, loose pants, turtleneck, gold necklace, and Yeezy sneakers.” Ironically, West delivered a sermon about materialism in front of the star-studded crowd. During the sermon, he says, “A lot of time we put our faith and trust in people, we put our faith and trust in material things.”
