KANYE WEST + ALEXIS PHIFER = POPLUXE

KANYE & ALEXIS IN HARPER’S BAZAAR

PIC CREDITS: LAVISH MAGAZINE

Kanye is showing off his L.A. pad and fiancée, designer Alexis Phifer – in the August Issue of Harper’s Bazaar. On its pages, he talks about:

His style:

“It’s like …pop luxe. Pop and luxury. Everything about me is pop and luxury.”
“Alexis is my original stylist,” says West.”She helped me get fresh!”

Meeting his fiancée, Alexis Phifer:

Alexis was wearing Miss Sixtys. I had on this throwback jersey, and the first thing I said to her, because I could tell she was stylish, was ‘I don’t normally dress like this!’ ”

His favorite designer:

“I lived for Dior until Hedi Slimane left. So I’m gonna see what he comes out with.”

Claims that he’s cocky:

“I’m really shy. … Why do you think I’m so cocky? It overcomes it.”

  2. Primero!!!!!!!!

    KAnye got a lot of insecurities….Its very clear to me now…

    “I dont usually dress like this”

    was the first line

  3. LowKey

    Well Look at Kanye….yea his lady is fresh as hell too! Good job Kanye…

  4. Anjel the 1

    Kanye is diffrent all the way around. I like that becauses it seems as if just about every rapper is the same.

  5. MW

    finally early ..kanye’s living the life..good for him
    EARLY FOR ONCE!

  6. i’m glad to see Kanye givin credit to somebody else for a change. wow i can’t believe it i’m finally first! woo hooo!

  7. dee

    i’m glad to see that i’m not the only one “not” feeling kanye. he’s become a little too smug for my taste…..i can’t stand a cocky man!

    anyway, nothing will top college dropout….just my opinion

  8. kanye is a joke too funny lol

  9. I like Kanye’s music, but he is a little TOO stylish for my taste.

  10. V to da A

    Cosign with whytry, I was getting ready to post the same thing. Kanye has got to be the most Metrosexual man I have ever seen! I’m not nearly as into fashion as he is. And I’m a woman!

  11. 71qt

    THAT’S WASSUP RIGHT THERE!!!!
    I HOPE THEY CAN STAY TOGETHER

  12. DiannaMarie

    Hes super fly and plus hes from my hometown, whats not to like about Kanye

  13. QTwitDaBootie

    BEST WISHES TO THE HAPPY COUPLE, HOPEFULLY SHE’LL BE ABLE TO KEEP HIM OUT OF THOSE WHITE SHADES HE WAS ROCKIN IN HIS VIDEO. WHACK!

  14. kcool

    I met Kanye as much as he is cocky he is a down to earth brother. Most of these rappers are not what they image portray. So its a breath of fresh air to see someone be true to there real self image like Kanye. He is one of kind.

  15. DJ

    why is is “never going to get married” fiance even acknowledged as a “somebody” I dont get it, but this is hollywood

  16. I can’t stand his egotistical ass. He gets on my damn nerves! You would think that after all he’s been thru that he would be a little more appreciative instead of just acting like an asshole.

  17. awwwww,how sweet….what a load of bullshit

    still give him his props for keepin it fresh

  18. pd

    i hate him i jus dont lik him fo sum reason!!!!

  19. Daryl

    QUESTION: i must be late but… since when did he have a fiance? but she looks good tho…

  20. I think they are a fly couple…

  21. @2. GODs 13th Disciple

    KAnye got a lot of insecurities….Its very clear to me now…

    >>>>> He does. Arrogance is a means for people to protect themselves. Don’t think for a second that Puffy and Jay-Z are confident about themselves and strong. The most humble people are generally the strongest and most confident ones, they don’t have to brag or inferiorize anyone cause their strength and confidence speak for themselves. I can tell you for sure that Common is a secure, confident and strong soul.

  22. Whatever, Kayne!!! STFU!!!! NEXT!!!

  23. lol@18.i agree…..if i had to go through having my mouth wired shut and shit,i’d be the most humble person you’d ever see……..dior and all this shit would not be at the top of my list,how about BRAGGIN about puttin that same 3,000 you spend on a pair of jeans in the collection plate because its quite easy to see that the LORD is the only reason he is alive to be so high and mighty

  24. TISHA

    I LIKE HIS DIGS, BUT HE SEEMS TO LIVE AND DIE FOR DESIGNER BRANDS. VERY SUPERFICIAL.

  25. OJ

    On behalf of all my fellow Chicagoans– Kanye is not corny…HE”S A CORNBALL!!!!
    Can we all say LAME! He’s not the Chi. We don’t look, act or talk like that. Get real ni**a

  26. natural Mystique

    Kanye’s girly and WAY too materialistic– such a turnoff.

  27. @ 21.Daryl

    QUESTION: i must be late but… since when did he have a fiance? but she looks good tho…

    >>>>>>>>> He got engage to her right after breaking up with that Brooke girl (over the whole Myspace drama), it’s like he just wanted to hurt Brooke. They do look cute and stylish but I have a hard time taking this engagement seriously; But oh well, that’s his life.

  28. No 1 Notices Me W/O an Avatar!

    They are a fly ass couple! And Kanye knows damn well that he is cocky, I hope that was just sarcasm. “I don’t normally dress like this”, I wish sombody would try to step to me with that weak line. I would of been like ok who cares, but I guess 1st impressions are everything. It must of been an old Oilers throwback jersey or something.

  29. Lette

    I have to say I like this picture. Him n his fiance looks very catoure n sophisticated so big ups I hope their relationship works out

  30. TT

    Cocky? Yes. Goofy? Yes. Refreshing? Yes. Original? Yes. Trendsetter? Yes.

    He might be arrogant as all get up but it is great to see a “rapper” that steps out of the box. Instead of wearing those baggy @ss jeans most of these idiot @ss rappers are doing…Kanye kept it fresh and funky…and got brah’s rocking sweaters and blazers in the morning and jeans and one’s in the evening. Gotta love the inventiveness.

  31. ok..let me see…Kanye his hated because he brags a lot…

    Interesting…

    Almost every video I’ve had the chance of seeing in the hip-hop/ R and B circuit is a video of someone bragging. It could be women or men. I see diamonds being flashed; I see designer jeans; I see Louis Vuitton purses; I see high price cars. And if you don’t see these material items, you see a provocatively dress women bragging about her ass or looks.

    So, really, if you don’t like Kanye, then you must hate the HipHop and R&B community..

    My thing is, if you are going to bitch about one man, bitch about them all.

  32. Sonya Blade

    Kanye is sooo materialistic & superficial. With that said, If I had a clothing line, I would definitely use him in the ads. And Ciara bc I think she is too good for lame @$$ ghetoo faboo Rocawear.

  33. @dats_da_truth

    if i started back watching videos,i would but no thanks…

  34. Sonya Blade

    P.S. He used to work at The Gap. They are like sooo fashionista wannabes…Who didn’t have an across-the-body one strap backpack in college? Stop frontin’, y’all.

    I had to change my whole look after Kanye & Pharell bc everyone started swagger jackin. I can’t remember the last time I bought something from American Eagle. =P

  35. do ure thing kanye. harpers def a good look.

  36. Some fashion and style connoisseurs. Kanye makes people have fits over his sexuality hes so fly! LOL

    Naw but really, he is a cool lyricist that just happens to have a equally fly wifey-to-be.

    I can’t knock his hustle or his taste.

  37. wendy's student

    that is not stylish it looks cheap and tacky! You can tell that he has bad taste because anyone with taste would not have stuffed animals laying around their apartment like that is cool. That is pure fug!

  38. @37

    American Eagle?????????????Nooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!! I would have accepted Holister!!!!!!!!

    Im sooooo mad at your name!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You must be a true MK head!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  39. @41

    Its a photo shoot…damn.

    The rest of their apartment is fly except that damn Michaelangelo ceiling…

  40. too tot

    Loves me some Kanye

  41. natural Mystique

    LOL! #41– Now that’s the truth. Is that really his home? That’s some Romper Room shyt!
    Wtf are all those toys n shyt up in there? He may know how to dress himself, but has no clue on decorating.

  42. ROUNDNBRWN

    WOW. “POP LUXE”?????
    STOP IT KANYE!!!!!!!!! CAN Y’ALL SAY GARBAGE…………….
    SORRY, NOT HATING, IT JUST ALL LOOKS SO, UHM.. HOW DO YOU SAY….”NOT” GOOD! LOL

  43. FancyFace

    Yeah, Kanye has became a little to cocky for me. And what’s with the Barbie Doll as his fiance. She looks like she wouldn’t give the AVERAGE black man the time of day…..and she can use a steak sandwich too.

  44. Ne' Ne'

    NO ONE on her knows what kanye does with his money or what kind of relationship he has with GOD. Just know that before you start runnin off @ the mouth about what he does with his money and how he should be humble. Kanye is cocky whenit comes to his music…He is an artist, he takes it serious because he’s good at it and is confident in what he does.

  45. FancyFace

    And I know she don’t be walking around on those nice hardwood floors with 6in heels…

  46. summer07

    at #41- those may seem like just “stuffed animals” to you but if you knew anything about the “street/skate” culture youd know that those are called “toys” and there a big deal in street/skate culture,there mad expensive and usually made by two different companies that collaborate….anyways kane is pretty vital in making the skate culture blow up in the mainstream along with pharrell……anyways jus droppin a lil knowledge, its all G*

  47. I LOVE KANYE AND HIS COCKY /SEEMS INSECURE IN THE INTERVIEW ASS I GUESS BEIN WITH ALEX MAKE HIM FEEL THAT WAY ….(HE LOVES HER) I LOVE THE CONDO IT VERY MODERN/SOPHISTICATED LOOKIN, LOOKIN FORWARD TO HIS ALBUM I PREFER HIS OVER 50′S

  48. summer07

    nvm wut i jus said…those ARE just regular ass stuffed animals….SMH at myself….there should be a button to delete ur comments

  49. FancyFace

    #48 Kanye is cocky whenit comes to his music…

    Did you see his hizzy-fit in England or wherever he was when he didn’t when the best video award? He jumped up on stage and ranted on about the million he spent on his video. That was some ARROGANT chit! I don’t see other artists jumping on stage when they loose and demanding acknowlegement. He’s cocky and ungrateful; he was near death for crying out loud. Show some thankfullness in your life for once.

    I agree with you 100% the whole rap and r&b game is about bragging about what they have and being cocky….I don’t understand either how they get so upset with kanye on here but don’t have a problem with T.I. who constantly says how he’s the best and how he’s a sex symbol….isn’t that just as cocky if anything he’s more cocky then Kanye but the women on this board never have a bad thing to say about the dude. Not hating cuz TI is my dude….I guess if you find someone attractive on here it’s okay to be arrogant and cocky…..Just a bunch of hyprocrits….

    Kanye and his fiance have style and like fashion ain’t nothing wrong with dressing nice and caring about your appearance…

  51. aijuswannasay

    MOST CATS WOULD WAIT TILL THERE GIRL WAS ON WIFEY STATUS, BUT YE BEING A REAL STAND UP GUY TO SHARE HIS HARPER’S SPREAD W/ HIS MAIN SQUEEZE!

  52. I like Kanye West and his ways but i do agree that at times he needs to sit back and just be thankful he’s alive…instead of bitchin about not winning

  53. Ne' Ne'

    Pretty much all of what kanye produced since he started with the dynasty were BANGING ass beats. I would give a list but it aint that serious. I love music so I respect kanye in that aspect and I fully understand and can’t hate on him being cocky about his shit.
    That boy almost died in 2002. He has a chance now to live life the way he wants just because it isnt the wasy you would, doesnt mean it aint right.
    I cant wait til the graduation drops.

  54. Law&Order1913

    I love Kanye..can’t wait for the album to drop

  55. B

    Alexis is sexy as hell.

  56. Am I the only one that feels as he might be a “tamborine player”?
